16MHz Crystal Oscillator - (Pack of 10) Documentation

Pin Configuration

Component Documentation: 16MHz Crystal Oscillator (Pack of 10)
Overview
The 16MHz Crystal Oscillator is a quartz crystal oscillator that provides a stable clock signal to microcontrollers, microprocessors, and other digital circuits. It is a commonly used component in electronic circuits, particularly in IoT devices, due to its high accuracy and reliability.
Pinouts
The 16MHz Crystal Oscillator has two pins, which are:
Pin 1: GND (Ground)
Function: Ground connection
Description: This pin is connected to the ground plane of the circuit, providing a reference voltage level for the oscillator.
Pin 2: OSC (Output)
Function: Clock signal output
Description: This pin provides a 16MHz clock signal output, which is typically connected to the clock input of a microcontroller or other digital circuit.
Connecting the Pins
To connect the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator, follow these steps:
Step 1: Connect Pin 1 (GND) to Ground
Connect Pin 1 to the ground plane of the circuit board using a jumper wire or a PCB track.
Ensure that the ground connection is secure and reliable to prevent noise and interference.
Step 2: Connect Pin 2 (OSC) to Clock Input
Connect Pin 2 to the clock input pin of the microcontroller or other digital circuit.
Use a suitable jumper wire or PCB track to make the connection.
Ensure that the clock input pin is compatible with the 16MHz clock signal output by the oscillator.
Important Notes
When handling the crystal oscillator, avoid touching the pins or the crystal itself to prevent damage from static electricity.
Use a suitable capacitor (typically 22pF) in parallel with the crystal oscillator to ensure stable operation.
Ensure that the power supply to the circuit is stable and regulated to prevent noise and interference.
By following these steps and notes, you can successfully connect and use the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator in your IoT project.

### Example 1: Using the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator with Arduino Uno

In this example, we will use the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator as the clock source for an Arduino Uno board.

Hardware Requirements:

Arduino Uno board
 16MHz Crystal Oscillator
 Breadboard
 Jumper wires

Software Requirements:

Arduino IDE 1.8.x or later

Code:
```c++
void setup() {
  // Initialize the Arduino Uno board with the 16MHz crystal oscillator
  CLKPR = (1 << CLKPCE);
  CLKPR = (0 << CLKPS3) | (0 << CLKPS2) | (0 << CLKPS1) | (0 << CLKPS0);
  while (!(CLKSR & (1 << CLKST))) {
    // Wait for the clock to stabilize
  }
}

void loop() {
  // Your code here
}
```
In this example, we configure the Arduino Uno board to use the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator as the clock source by setting the `CLKPR` and `CLKSR` registers.

Hardware Requirements:

Raspberry Pi Pico board
 16MHz Crystal Oscillator
 Breadboard
 Jumper wires

Software Requirements:

Raspberry Pi Pico SDK 1.1.x or later

Code:
```c++
#include <RP2040.h>

int main() {
  // Initialize the Raspberry Pi Pico board with the 16MHz crystal oscillator
  rp2040_cpu_clock_config(RP2040_CLOCK_SRC_XOSC, 16  MHZ);
  while (true) {
    // Your code here
  }
  return 0;
}
```
In this example, we configure the Raspberry Pi Pico board to use the 16MHz Crystal Oscillator as the clock source using the `rp2040_cpu_clock_config()` function.
