We are pleased to introduce you to our 32.768kHz crystal unit for MSP430 Family.
Please note: to design oscillation circuit for MSP430 Family, you need to confirm the electronic characteristics as follows:
Oscillation allowance and Negative resistance (-R):
You need to confirm oscillation capability.
We recommend the condition: (-R) / ESR > 5
* -R: Negative resistance, ESR: Equivalent Series Resistance
Drive Level:
You need to confirm if oscillation is stable, and if the drive level is within the specification.
Load Capacitance:
Load capacitance affects frequency stability, oscillation allowance, negative resistance, and start-up time of oscillation.
In addition the load capacitance is determinative factor of crystal unit's load capacitance (CL value) directly.
* frequency stability: frequency deviation out of circuit conditions.
When Customer selects crystal unit, load capacitance (CL value) is an important factor of the selection.
For instance, crystal with small CL(7.0 pF) makes larger oscillation allowance, smaller current consumption and worse frequency stability,
like below table. Oppositely, crystal with large CL(12.5 pF) makes smaller oscillation allowance, larger current consumption and better frequency stability.
Please select it in consideration of these characteristics.

Notes
1. Above recommendations are based on actual evaluation results and intended to support users in picking the right components. And the results are only according to the sample set that received from our customers, so it is not including the dispersion trend of IC and the external parts.
2. As the actual board layout and choice of external components influences the best suitable crystal load capacitance, We do not assume any responsibility and grant warranty for above recommendations.
3. Users design must be verified and decided by own and individual evaluation.
Layout of XIN, XOUT, Crystal unit, Capacitor and Resistor
-Please lay out crystal unit, capacitor and resistor near MSP430 as far as possible.
-Please connect XIN and XOUT within 20 mm length, and do not cross other signal lines.
For 32kHz crystal unit
If Vcc drops to below 2.5V, insert a resistor of 5.1 ohms between XOUT and GND.
GND Line Pattern and Interconnection of PCB
-Please lay out GND line pattern under crystal unit.
-In case of multi-layered PCB board, do not lay out other signal lines under crystal unit.
