Sometimes I even put it in the food. I called a local custom crystal manufacturer -- $18 for a 7864320 Hz Crystal. The most straight forward approach looks like the CD4060B. I found a source $3 for a pack of 25. If you look at Fig. 13 in the data sheet for the CD4060B, it shows how to hook the crystal up to the chip. All I need is two caps and two resistors. The crystal manufacturer said that he would give me the values that I need to calculate C1 and C2. I am wondering what value I would need for RC. Thanks, Chris KQ6UP |
