Now, if I remember your original post, it sure sounds like a ceramic
resonator. I'd say they are interchangeable with crystals (or vice
versa), given the issue of those external capacitors.
There are no caps in this oscillator circuit. The resonator has a 33 ohm (or
22; I can't tell if those are red or orange stripes) resistor connecting each
of its 2 pins to ground. One end of the resonator also connects directly to a
pin of the microcontroller. The other end connects via a 1M ohm resistor to
another pin of the microcontroller.
Given this circuit, can I replace the resonator with a crystal? Such as:
