I somehow messed up when I did my Digikey search - I found plenty of=20 the high-frequency, stupidly-high operating current metal can=20 oscillators but somehow didn't see any 32.768 KHz ones that I=20 needed. Now that I'm trying this search again, 5 candidates show up. I really appreciate the sanity check.
