Low-speed external clock generated from a crystal/ceramic resonator
The low-speed external (LSE) clock can be supplied with a 32.768 kHz crystal/ceramic
resonator oscillator. All the information given in this paragraph are based on characterization
results obtained with typical external components specified in Table 24. In the application,
the resonator and the load capacitors have to be placed as close as possible to the oscillator
pins in order to minimize output distortion and startup stabilization time. Refer to the crystal
resonator manufacturer for more details on the resonator characteristics (frequency,
package, accuracy).

3. The oscillator selection can be optimized in terms of supply current using an high quality resonator with
small RS value for example MSIV-TIN32.768kHz. Refer to crystal manufacturer for more details
4. tSU(LSE) is the startup time measured from the moment it is enabled (by software) to a stabilized
32.768 kHz oscillation is reached. This value is measured for a standard crystal resonator and it can vary
significantly with the crystal manufacturer
Note:
For C and C , it is recommended to use high-quality ceramic capacitors in the 5 pF to
