Chapter 19: RTC
gives the crystal parameters that should be used. C
L
is the typical load
capacitance of the crystal and is usually specified by the crystal manufacturer. The actual
C
L
influences oscillation frequency. When using a crystal that is manufactured for a
different load capacitance, the circuit will oscillate at a slightly different frequency
(depending on the quality of the crystal) compared to the specified one. Therefore for an
accurate time reference it is advised to use the load capacitors as specified in
that belong to a specific C
L
. The value of external capacitances C
X1
and C
X2
specified in
this table are calculated from the internal parasitic capacitances and the C
L
. Parasitics
from PCB and package are not taken into account.
