For the STM32F105, what parameters (besides frequency) of a crystal oscillator should you consider when looking for one?

[CLaud.1]

Does load capacitance matter for a given device? Or does that only effect the caps you pair with the oscillator?

[TDK · Accepted solution]

Load capacitance can matter.

In general, most crystals will work. You could also just choose one already on an ST board to be safe without doing any work.
