Oscillator Congurations
8.2.1
OSCILLATOR TYPES
The PIC16CXX can be operated in four different oscil-
lator modes. The user can program two conguration
bits (FOSC1 and FOSC0) to select one of these four
modes:
LP
Low Power Crystal
XT
Crystal/Resonator
HS
High Speed Crystal/Resonator
RC
Resistor/Capacitor
8.2.2
CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR/CERAMIC
RESONATORS
In XT, LP or HS modes a crystal or ceramic resonator
is connected to the OSC1/CLKIN and OSC2/CLKOUT
pins
to
establish
oscillation
The
PIC16CXX Oscillator design requires the use of a par-
allel cut crystal. Use of a series cut crystal may give a
frequency out of the crystal manufacturers specica-
tions. When in XT, LP or HS modes, the device can
have an external clock source to drive the OSC1/
