Hi,
I am using an ADS131A04 in one of my designs which I am currently clocking using a 16.384MHz Crystal (Connected to XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins, through the required R/C network) as used in the EVM Reference design. The system is working fine. I wish to replace the crystal with a 16MHz Crystal (not a buffered oscillator), as this will provide me sampling rates which would reduce the resampling overhead in my DSP considerably. Now, the data sheet lists 16.384MHz as the nominal XTAL Clock Frequency and 16.5MHz as the maximum XTAL Clock frequency. There is no specified minimum limit. Will there be problems if I use a 16MHz crystal with the same load capacitance values? Will it work ? Are there any other issues that I should consider while doing this ?
Any comments or replies will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Ajith Peter
