Items to Confirm (designing of oscillation circuit)
Please note: to design oscillation circuit, you need to confirm the electronic characteristics as follows:
Oscillation allowance and Negative resistance (-R):
You need to confirm oscillation capability.
We recommend the condition: (-R) / ESR > 5
* -R: Negative resistance, ESR: Equivalent Series Resistance
Please refer to our web site:
https://www5.epsondevice.com/cn/information/precaution/design.html
Support information > Precautions in Designing oscillation circuits > 2. Allowance for oscillation
Drive Level:
You need to confirm if oscillation is stable, and if the drive level is within the specification.
Please refer to our web site:

Support information > Precautions in Designing oscillation circuits > 1. Drive level
Load Capacitance:
Load capacitance affects frequency stability, oscillation allowance, negative resistance, and start-up time of oscillation.
In addition the load capacitance is determinative factor of crystal unit's load capacitance (CL value) directly.
Please refer to our web site:

Support information > Precautions in Designing oscillation circuits > 3. Load capacitance
* frequency stability: frequency deviation out of circuit conditions.
Selection Guidance for crystal unit
When Customer selects crystal unit, load capacitance (CL value) is an important factor of the selection.
For instance, crystal with small CL(7.0 pF) makes larger oscillation allowance, smaller current consumption and worse frequency stability,
like below table. Oppositely, crystal with large CL(12.5 pF) makes smaller oscillation allowance, larger current consumption and better frequency stability.
Please select it in consideration of these characteristics.

Precautions for designing of PCB Board
Layout of pins, Crystal unit, Capacitor and Resistor
- Please lay out crystal unit, capacitor and resistor near PCF85263 as far as possible.
- The length of signal patterns in oscillatiton circuit should be as short as possible,
and do not cross other signal lines.
For 32kHz Crystal Unit
GND Line Pattern and Interconnection of PCB
- Please lay out GND line pattern under crystal unit.
- In case of multi-layered PCB board, do not lay out other signal lines under crystal unit.
