Linistepper Help Required

[wolverine123]

Hi guys, I wanted to ask the people who have made the linistepper v1 or v2, i'm a noob in electronics but wanted to ask that I have found every component (Thank GOD) for linistepper except for the 3-Pin 16Mhz Crystal Oscillator, but i found 2-Pins 11.0592Mhz and 12Mhz Oscillators. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks

If the design calls for a 3-pin, use a 3-pin.

In a pinch you can use a 12MHz instead of 16MHz and it wouldn't hurt to use a 2pin resonator with two 15pF ceramic caps instead of a 3pin if that is easier for you.

The www.Microchip.com website has the PIC16F628A datasheet, and the oscillator section of that datasheet covers xtal and resonator options if you need to know more.

Thanks man, hope it works
