15 OSCILLATOR CIRCUITRY
The on-chip oscillator circuitry of the P8xCL410 is a
single-stage inverting amplifier biased by an internal
feedback resistor. The oscillator circuit is shown in Fig.15.
For operation as a standard quartz oscillator, no external
components are needed, except for the 32 kHz option.
When using external capacitors, ceramic resonators, coils
and RC networks to drive the oscillator, five different
configurations are supported (see Table 33 and Fig.14).
In the Power-down mode the oscillator is stopped and
XTAL1 is pulled HIGH. The oscillator inverter is switched
off to ensure no current will flow regardless of the voltage
at XTAL1, for configurations (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (g) of
Fig.14.
To drive the device with an external clock source, apply the
external clock signal to XTAL1, and leave XTAL2 to float,
as shown in Fig.14(f). There are no requirements on the
duty cycle of the external clock, since the input to the
internal clocking circuitry is buffered by a flip-flop.
Various oscillator options are provided for optimum
on-chip oscillator performance; these are specified in
Table 33 and shown in Fig.14. The required option should
be stated when ordering.
