11.2.2 Si5340 Crystal Guidelines
The figure below is the second layer, which implements the shield underneath the crystal. The shield extends underneath the entire
crystal and the X1 and X2 pins. There should be no less than 12 vias to connect the X1X2 planes on Layers 1 and 2. These vias are
not shown in any other figures. All traces with signals that are not static must be kept well away from the crystal and the X1X2 plane.
