I am designing with the nRF51822 and I have a choice of either a 32Khz or 16MHz crystal. Can you tell me the advantages and disadvantages of both?
If the 32KHz crystal offers lower power and higher accuracy why even offer the 16MHz option? Also, it seems to me that the 16MHz would offer higher accuracy since the PLL multiplier would be smaller than for a watch crystal. Since the PLL multiplier would be smaller the effects of jitter multiplication would be less. Or am I missing something?
Thanks, john
