7.3 Oscillator External Connections
In its typical configuration, the oscillator requires five external
components. The crystal oscillator is normally connected in a Pierce
oscillator configuration, as shown in Figure 7-1. This figure shows only
the logical representation of the internal components and may not
represent actual circuitry. The oscillator configuration uses five
components:
• Crystal, X
1
• Fixed capacitor, C

• Tuning capacitor, C
2
(can also be a fixed capacitor)
• Feedback resistor, R
B
• Series resistor, R
S
