MSP430 crystal startup time
« on: December 05, 2016, 10:35:55 pm »
The docs warn that it can take hundreds of ms for a 32k crystal to startup.

I'm able to get the MS3V-T1R that shipped with the launchpad kit to consistently start in only 7ms.  Should I be worried?

No. The key word there is "can" -- "can" doesn't imply that it "must" take hundreds of ms.
Complexity is the number-one enemy of high-quality code.

If that's important for your product and you want to sleep well at night, I would.
