Hi,
I am trying to specify the crystal to be used in our AM335x design. I would like to use a 25MHz crystal used elsewhere in the design. This crystal has a shunt capacitance of 7pf (http://foxonline.com/pdfs/fqa.pdf). The AM335x datasheet specifies the maximum acceptable crystal shunt capacitance is 5pF (sprs717c, Table 4-1).
I noticed in a similar forum question that the spec could be relaxed to allow the 7pF crystal (http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/davinci_digital_media_processors/f/716/t/103408.aspx). Is that possible for the AM335x? If not is there another crystal you could recommend?
Kind Regards
Mark
