Crystal Input Interface
The ICS843003 has been characterized with 18pF parallel
resonant crystals. The capacitor values shown in Figure 3
below were determined using a 31.25MHz or 26.041666MHz
18pF parallel resonant crystal and were chosen to minimize the
ppm error.

LVCMOS to XTAL Interface
The XTAL_IN input can accept a single-ended LVCMOS signal
through an AC coupling capacitor. A general interface diagram is
shown in Figure 4. The XTAL_OUT pin can be left floating. The
input edge rate can be as slow as 10ns. For LVCMOS inputs, it is
recommended that the amplitude be reduced from full swing to half
swing in order to prevent signal interference with the power rail and
to reduce noise. This configuration requires that the output
impedance of the driver (Ro) plus the series resistance (Rs) equals
the transmission line impedance. In addition, matched termination
at the crystal input will attenuate the signal in half. This can be
done in one of two ways. First, R1 and R2 in parallel should equal
the transmission line impedance. For most 50Ω applications, R1
and R2 can be 100Ω. This can also be accomplished by removing
R1 and making R2 50Ω.
