NOTE:
NOTE:
An increase in the EXTAL–XTAL parasitic as a result of reducing
EXTAL–VSS parasitic is acceptable provided component value is
reduced by the appropriate value.
EXTAL and XTAL routing resistances are less important than
capacitances. Using minimum width traces is an acceptable trade-off to
reduce capacitance.

Minimize Capacitance to VSS on EXTAL pin — The Colpitts
oscillator architecture is sensitive to capacitance in parallel with
the resonator (from EXTAL to VSS). Follow these techniques:
Shield all oscillator components from all noisy traces (while
observing above guideline).
Keep the VSSPLL pin and the VSS reference to the oscillator
as identical as possible. Impedance between these signals must
be minimum.
Observe best practice supply bypassing on all MCU power
pins. The oscillator’s supply reference is VDD, not VDDPLL.
Account for XTAL–VSS and EXTAL–XTAL parasitics in
component values.
Minimize XTAL and EXTAL routing lengths to reduce EMC
issues.
iii. Where possible, use XTAL as a shield between EXTAL
iv. Keep EXTAL capacitance to less than 1pF (2pF
ii. Observe a minimum spacing from the EXTAL trace to all
i. Remove ground plane from all layers around resonator
and EXTAL route
other traces of at least three times the design rule
minimum (until the microcontroller’s pin pitch prohibits
this guideline)
