Oscillator Characteristics

XTAL1 and XTAL2 are the input and output, respectively, of an inverting amplifier which can be

configured for use as an on-chip oscillator, as shown in Figure 5-1. Either a quartz crystal or

ceramic resonator may be used. To drive the device from an external clock source, XTAL2

should be left unconnected while XTAL1 is driven as shown in Figure 5-2. There are no require-

ments on the duty cycle of the external clock signal, since the input to the internal clocking

circuitry is through a divide-by-two flip-flop, but minimum and maximum voltage high and low

time specifications must be observed.
