EM78P257A/B can be driven by an external clock signal through the OSCI pin as shown in Fig.18 below.

Fig. 18 Circuit for External Clock Input
In most applications, pin OSCI and pin OSCO can be connected with a crystal or ceramic resonator to generate
oscillation. Fig. 19 depicts such circuit. The same thing applies whether it is in the HXT mode or in the LXT mode.
Table 17 provides the recommended values of C1 and C2. Since each resonator has its own attribute, user
should refer to its specification for appropriate values of C1 and C2. RS, a serial resistor, may be necessary for AT
strip cut crystal or low frequency mode.
