We are pleased to introduce you to our 32.768kHz crystal unit for F1xx, F2xx,
F4xx,and F5xx:
Crystal Recommendations for Texas Instruments "MSP430 series family”.
For product information of "MSP430 series",
please see Texas Instruments' web site.

Please note: to design oscillation circuit for MSP430 series, you need to confirm the electronic
characteristics as follows:
Oscillation allowance and Negative resistance (-R):
Drive Level:
Load Capacitance:
Load capacitance affects frequency stability, oscillation allowance, negative resistance, and start-up time of oscillation.
In addition the load capacitance is determinative factor of crystal unit's load capacitance (CL value) directly.
Please refer to our web site:
http://www.epsontoyocom.co.jp/english/C_support/precautions/precautions_2.html
Support information > Precautions in
Designing oscillation circuits > 3. Load capacitance
* frequency stability: frequency deviation out of circuit conditions.
|

When Customer selects crystal unit, load capacitance (CL value) is
an
important factor of the selection.
For instance, crystal with small CL(7.0 pF) makes larger oscillation allowance,
smaller current
consumption and worse frequency stability, like below table.
Oppositely, crystal with large CL(12.5 pF) makes smaller oscillation allowance, larger
current
consumption and better frequency stability.
Please select it in consideration of these characteristics.
