## How to test

After the project is enabled, you should see a sine wave at around 6.3MHz on analog output pin 0.
After the project is enabled, you should see a sine wave at around 4.93MHz on analog output pin 0.

There is also a 20 bit digital counter connected to the oscillator output. The top 8 bits are connected to the LEDs.
So you should also see the most significant bit flashing every ~6 seconds.
So you should also see the most significant bit (the dot) flashing about 5 times per second.

## External hardware

Oscilloscope.

## Silicon results

The measurement was made with a Keysight HD3 scope. The design is very sensitive to loading, so a scope probe was connected direct to the pad (after removing the pulldown).

The frequency was measured at 4.67MHz, which is about 5% slower than anticipated.
