Calculate crystal oscillator load capacitance Items tagged with Calculate crystal oscillator load capacitance

30pF caps are actually loading capacitors provides stability and precise frequency output of a crystal oscillator.

the Loading capacitance (CL) is always given in oscillator datasheet so that one can calculate loading capacitors value. lets say if CL is given 20pF then loading caps can be anywhere from 27 to 33pF.

If the oscillation frequency is high, the capacitor values should be increased to lowe... Read Compelte post
