ftarget = nominal crystal frequency
errorxtal =actual initial accuracy (in ppm) of the crystal
being measured
If the centering error is less than ±25 ppm, no
adjustment is needed. If the centering error is more
than 25ppm negative, the PC board has excessive
stray capacitance and a new PCB layout should be
considered to reduce stray capacitance. (Alternately,
the crystal may be re-specified to a higher load
capacitance. Contact ICS MicroClock for details.) If the
centering error is more than 25ppm positive, add
identical fixed centering capacitors from each crystal
pin to ground. The value for each of these caps (in pF)
is given by:
External Capacitor =
2 x (centering error)/(trim sensitivity)
Trim sensitivity is a parameter which can be supplied
by your crystal vendor. If you do not know the value,
assume it is 30 ppm/pF. After any changes, repeat the
measurement to verify that the remaining error is
acceptably low (typically less than ±25ppm).
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses above the ratings listed below can cause permanent damage to the MK3711. These ratings,
which are standard values for ICS commercially rated parts, are stress ratings only. Functional operation of
the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of the
specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods can
affect product reliability. Electrical parameters are guaranteed only over the recommended operating
temperature range.
