Use a crystal with the same frequency as the desired system clock frequency (ø).
Note on Board Design: When an external crystal is connected, other signal lines should be kept
away from the crystal circuit to prevent induction from interfering with correct oscillation. See
figure 6.10. The crystal and its load capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the XTAL
and EXTAL pins.
