32.768 oscillator necessary? #6

Closed flybrianfly closed 1 year ago

flybrianfly commented 1 year ago

Hey Kris,

Making a custom board after prototyping with the Ladybug. Wondering if you know offhand if the 32.768 oscillator is needed if I'm not using the RTC? Would the core software need to be updated?

Thanks much!

Definitely required if you want to use the Tlera Corp Arduino core...

Hi @kriswiner, can you provide part numbers or specs for the oscillator and caps? I designed a custom board after prototyping with a Ladybug, but the USB isn't coming up and I'm suspecting that it's an issue with the oscillator I used. Thanks!

Any 20 ppm 32.768 kHz crystal with 4 pF capacitance. I use 5.6 pF balancing caps.

Send me your schematic and I will take a look.

Thanks @kriswiner! Just sent you an email. I'm suspecting maybe an issue with the oscillator and caps, I used a 6 pF oscillator and 4.3 pF balancing caps.

Nope, must connect VBUS to PA15 for USB serial to work in this design.

Thanks! I managed to bodge that connection and it's working as expected now.
