External XO: The following figure shows the layer that implements the ground shield underneath the XO. This layer also has the clock
input pins. The clock input pins go to layer 2 using vias to avoid crosstalk. As soon as the clock inputs are on layer 2, they have a
ground shield above, below, and on the sides for maximum protection.
