Hi, Howard, It's a three pin resonator. = Checked the data sheet again: it clearly says on page5: Vdd=3D3,0 - 5,5V: = Regards Peter -----Urspr=FCngliche Nachricht----- Von: piclist-bounces@mit.edu [mailto:piclist-bounces@mit.edu] Im Auftrag von Howard Winter Gesendet: Samstag, 2.

If the former, what value of capacitors are you using?
