Rt and Ct at VCC = 2.0 to 6.0 V; Tamb = 25 °C.
Ct curve at Rt = 100 kΩ; R2 = 200 kΩ.
Rt curve at Ct = 1 nF; R2 = 2 × Rt.
Typical formula for oscillator frequency:

TIMING COMPONENT LIMITATIONS
The oscillator frequency is mainly determined by RtCt, provided R2 ≈ 2Rt and R2C2 << RtCt. The function of R2 is to
minimize the influence of the forward voltage across the input protection diodes on the frequency. The stray capacitance
C2 should be kept as small as possible. In consideration of accuracy, Ct must be larger than the inherent stray
capacitance. Rt must be larger than the “ON” resistance in series with it, which typically is 280 Ω at VCC = 2.0 V, 130 Ω at
VCC = 4.5 V and 100 Ω at VCC = 6.0 V.
The recommended values for these components to maintain agreement with the typical oscillation formula are:
Ct > 50 pF, up to any practical value,
10 kΩ < Rt < 1 MΩ.
In order to avoid start-up problems, Rt ≥ 1 kΩ.
