What's the best way to use a trimmer capacitor to adjust the frequency of a 8mhz crystal? I used a 5-50pf trimmer and a 27pf capacitor for c1 and c2, but results not so good. It oscillates, but can't really tune it. Is there a better way to do it? Trimmer in series with crystal? Add a "Rs"? - Dom -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY! [EE]:,[OT]: ->Other [BUY]:,[AD]: ->Ads
