2.0 OSCILLATOR
CONFIGURATIONS
2.1 Oscillator Types
The PIC18FXX20 devices can be operated in eight dif-
ferent Oscillator modes. The user can program three
configuration bits (FOSC2, FOSC1, and FOSC0) to
select one of these eight modes:
1. LP
2. XT
3. HS
4. HS+PLL
5. RC
6. RCIO
7. EC
8. ECIO

2.2 Crystal Oscillator/Ceramic
Resonators
In XT, LP, HS or HS+PLL Oscillator modes, a crystal or
ceramic resonator is connected to the OSC1 and
OSC2 pins to establish oscillation. Figure 2-1 shows
the pin connections.
The PIC18FXX20 oscillator design requires the use of
a parallel cut crystal.
Note:
Use of a series cut crystal may give a fre-
quency out of the crystal manufacturer’s
specifications.

Note
1: See Table 2-1 and Table 2-2 for recommended
values of C1 and C2.
2: A series resistor (RS) may be required for AT
strip cut crystals.
3: RF varies with the Oscillator mode chosen.

Resonators Used:
455 kHz Panasonic EFO-A455K04B ± 0.3%
2.0 MHz Murata Erie CSA2.00MG
± 0.5%
4.0 MHz Murata Erie CSA4.00MG
± 0.5%
8.0 MHz Murata Erie CSA8.00MT
± 0.5%
16.0 MHz Murata Erie CSA16.00MX
± 0.5%
All resonators used did not have built-in capacitors.
Note 1: Higher capacitance increases the stability
of the oscillator, but also increases the
start-up time.
2: When operating below 3V VDD, or when
using certain ceramic resonators at any
voltage, it may be necessary to use high
gain HS mode, try a lower frequency
resonator, or switch to a crystal oscillator.
3: Since each resonator/crystal has its own
characteristics, the user should consult the
resonator/crystal manufacturer for appro-
priate values of external components, or
verify oscillator performance.
