#91105 - urban legends
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The Microcontroler would work even if you do not connect the burden capacitors

This is how urban legends get started. Someone forgot the burden caps and the circuit happened to work. Maybe the wiring provided more than enough stray capacitance.

Then it is posted it does work, which one case does not "prove".

If you can drive your car to somewhere without an accident, does that prove that accidents does not happen.
