10.8 128 kHz Internal Oscillator
The 128 kHz internal Oscillator is a low power Oscillator providing a clock of 128 kHz. The fre-
quency is nominal at 3V and 25°C. This clock may be select as the system clock by
programming the CKSEL Fuses to “11” as shown in Table 10-10.

Note:
1. Note that the 128 kHz oscillator is a very low power clock source, and is not designed for high
accuracy.
When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT Fuses as shown in
Table 10-11.

10.9 External Clock
To drive the device from an external clock source, XTAL1 should be driven as shown in Figure
10-4. To run the device on an external clock, the CKSEL Fuses must be programmed to “0000”.
