External Crystal
Hello all,
Been brewing my own board. I purchased a "standard" crystal, 5.000MHz. But, can't verify if it will work. Making matters worse is that I can't find a datasheet. I have read consistantly about the XTAL crystal specifically. The one I have looks like a standard one, but the one's in the misc pictures shows a smaller style.
I will first start by asking:
Is the prop sensitive to specific external crytals?

I asked again because:
a) searched and couldn't find said post
b) remembered reading said post a while back and still not knowing if what I had would work.
The guy said it was a "standard" 5Mhz crystal. If he had said this is a "standard" cap screw, I would have known what he said, as I am a mechanical engineer and know what a "standard" cap screw is. BUT, not sure what a "standard" crystal is. [noparse]:)[/noparse] [noparse]:)[/noparse]
Sorry if this is repetetive.
