I have salvaged two crystals from an old piece of kit (trailcam). All they have on them is a freq indication: 12.000 and 32.768.
I have setup a Colpitts (see attached) and got the 12.000 to oscillate at 12MHz.
However, I can't get the other one to oscillate. I assumed it was "MHz" but, having searched a bit, think it might be "kHz" as the trailcam had a clock.
Can I use this circuit to get it to oscillate? If so, where can I find the best values for the caps and resistors?
Cheers.
