| Original configuration | |
| |
| Signal to harmonics: ~10 dB.
Signal to "floor": ~20 dB. | |
| Change C7/C8 divider from 33/220 pF to 150/1000 pF Scope shows signal at XTAL1. (DC offset was due to scope mis-calibration.) | |
| |
| Signal to harmonics: ~10 dB.
(Lower density of harmonics.) Signal to "floor": ~20 dB. | |
| Added resistive probes to measure clock phase (5 kΩ on "yellow" CLK, 500 Ω on "blue" CLKM) | |
| |
| Signal to harmonics: ~15 dB.
Signal to "floor": ~23 dB. | |
| Disabled CLKM | |
| |
| Density of harmonics decreases further. | |
| Added 10 kΩ in parallel to C8 Scope shows averaged signal at XTAL1. | |
| |
| Note: changed FFT ref level. | |
| Added 0.5 pF bypass to antenna feed (at "knee") | |
| |
| No perceptible change. | |
| Change C7/C8 divider from 150/1000 pF to 220/1000 pF Scope shows average signal at XTAL1. | |
| |
| No significant change. | |
