I have a 32 kHz crystal that I want to use as a clock pulse source. I have tried searching the net for oscillator circuits and have found some, but haven't had any luck simulating them.
Can someone tell me, in the simplest way possible, how to reliably make my crystal oscillate? I want to use in a clock and the O/P will go straight into a frequency divider then a counter. I want to ideally run it from a 9v battery, or two (depending on the overall current pull of the system).
Any help would be appreciated.
