If I want to take the ATMega out of the Arduino and use it seperately, do I need to include the 16mHz oscillator? The only precision I need is the millis() method for recording the time a sensor was triggered.

Does ATMega 328 require 16mHz oscillator?

Yes, I forgot to capitalize the M. The point was, is an oscillator required. Thanks for your answer, this one will work correct?
