26.5 External Crystal / Resonator Connections
The connections for a crystal/resonator frequency reference are shown in the figures
found here.
When using low-frequency, low-power mode, the only external component is the crystal
or ceramic resonator itself. In the other oscillator modes, load capacitors (C
x
, C
y
) and
feedback resistor (R
F
) are required. The following table shows all possible connections.

1. When the load capacitors (Cx, Cy) are greater than 30 pF, use Connection 3.
2. With the low-power mode, the oscillator has the internal feedback resistor R
F
. Therefore, the feedback resistor must not be
externally with the Connection 3.
