Use TCXO as LFXO (nRF52)

[mzi]

Hi, I would like to know, whether it is possible to use a TCXO with single output as a LFCLK source, i.e. connecting the TCXO output only to XL1, instead of connecting an xtal between XL1 and XL2.

Thanks,

Martin

Hi Martin,

On nRF52, the HFCLK was not made to work with external clock source other than the Xtal.

You guess wrong - you can use an external source for the LFCLK. The information about that including the type of signals permissable and the pin connections, are all documented in the manual.
