I'm building a simple 6802 single board system. I want to drive the CPU with an external oscillator, rather than using a crystal (got lots of 4 pin oscillators, not so many crystals). When using a crystal, the frequency of the crystal gets divided down by 4 by an internal part of the processor (so you use a 4 MHz crystal for a 1MHz clock).
When using an external oscillator, like I want to do, does the same divide by 4 occur? That is, should I use a 4 MHz external oscillator, or a 1 MHz oscillator for a 1 MHz system clock?
