#111662 - quick fix? Responding to: ???'s previous message |

I totally agree with Steve: You most urgently need a solid ground plane! So, you must use at least a double sided board!! As a quick fix, would't placing the PCB on a piece of flat metal sheet suffice, at least to measure whether a double-sided board would suffice? Kai said:
The 5MHz you see at sine output is simple ground noise of 5MHz crystal oscillator. These crystal oscillator moduls are very very dirty and produce a huge noise on supply and ground pins. Not only resulting from noisy supply currents, but also from ground return currents of clock signal running back from micro to oscillator modul!
It's better to use the internal Pierce oscillator of micro in combination with this obligatory quartz. Wow, I didn't know that, I always thought an external oscillator is a superior solution in all respects... Is there an explanation, why the external oscillator is more "dirty" than the internal one? Does it have bigger power consumption, or is that the HF ground return "common resistance" which makes it "dirty", or what? Jan Waclawek |
