6.11.3 External RC Oscillator Mode

For some applications that do not require precise timing calculation, the RC oscillator (Fig. 6-20 right) could offer you with effective cost savings. Nevertheless, it should be noted that the frequency of the RC oscillator is influenced by the supply voltage, the values of the resistor (Rext), the capacitor (Cext), and even by the operation temperature. Moreover, the frequency also changes slightly from one chip to another due to manufacturing process variation.

In order to maintain a stable system frequency, the values of the Cext should be no less than 20pF, and that of Rext should be no greater than 1MΩ. If the frequency cannot be kept within this range, the frequency can be affected easily by noise, humidity, and leakage.

The smaller the Rext in the RC oscillator is, the faster its frequency will be. On the contrary, for very low Rext values, for instance, 1 KΩ, the oscillator will become unstable because the NMOS cannot discharge the capacitance current correctly.
