RTC External Components
The RTC requires connecting an external 32.768 kHz crystal and
C
1
, C
2
load capacitance as shown in the Figure 5. The figure
shows the recommnded RTC external component values. The
load capacitances C
1
and C
2
are inclusive of parasitic of the
printed circuit board (PCB). The PCB parasitic includes the
capacitance due to land pattern of crystal pads/pins, X
in
/X
out
pads and copper traces connecting crystal and device pins.
