Subject: [AVR-Chat] Crystal Oscillators

Hello,
Are crystal oscillators as simple to use as crystals with loading caps? I am having a devil of a time matching crystals with the right loading capacitors, and I thought switching to crystal oscillators might make this part of my life easier.

I ordered crystals from Digi-Key that say 20pf load, and when I hooked one up with a 20pf load on each pin, it simply didn't work.

Do you think crystal oscillators might solve this problem?
