Crystal Recommendations
The CY28551-3 requires a Parallel Resonance Crystal.
Substituting a series resonance crystal will cause the
CY28551-3 to operate at the wrong frequency and violate the
ppm specification. For most applications there is a 300-ppm
frequency shift between series and parallel crystals due to
incorrect loading.
Crystal Loading
Crystal loading plays a critical role in achieving low ppm perfor-
mance. To realize low ppm performance, the total capacitance
the crystal will see must be considered to calculate the appro-
priate capacitive loading (CL).
Figure 1 shows a typical crystal configuration using the two
trim capacitors. An important clarification for the following
discussion is that the trim capacitors are in series with the
crystal not parallel. It’s a common misconception that load
capacitors are in parallel with the crystal and should be
approximately equal to the load capacitance of the crystal.
This is not true.
