Add load capacitors to 16 MHz crystal (C14, C15)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The crystal has a specified load capacitance of 8 pF. The AT86RF230 has
|
|
an internal capacitor array that can be trimmed in 16 steps from 0 pF to
|
|
4.5 pF.
|
|
|
|
The crystal has a nominal tolerance of 15 ppm at 25 C plus a temperature
|
|
tolerance of 15 ppm. The following deviations from 1 MHz at CLKM were
|
|
measured with the CNTR board, roughly at 20-25 C:

(Multiple measurements to assess CNTR performance and drift. Note that
|
|
CNTR measurements are repeatable within 1 ppm, so the nominal accuracy
|
|
appears to be far too pessimistic.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion: these measurements suggest that, combined with parasitic
|
|
capacitance, load capacitors of 12 pF make the crystal roughly half the
|
|
trim range faster than 16 MHz.
