Guidelines on The Effects of Parasitic Capacitance on Clock Accuracy Due to Board Layout

Sponsored by Maxim Integrated

Crystal oscillators are widely used in RTC applications. Clock accuracy, one of the key parameters in real-time clocks, partly depends on the parasitic capacitance of the PCB being employed. Optimizing PCB layout can achieve the desired clock accuracy. This application note provide guidelines on the effects of parasitic capacitance.
