Hello, I am trying to use a surface mount crystal for the RTC clock on the STR912F microcontroller. The datasheet states that the load capacitance is 8pF (Typ). Unfortunately, I am unable to find an SMD crystal with that load capacitance. I can, however, find 7pF and 9pF. Can they be used? Any hints or ideas? Thank you, A
