SERIAL ACCESS RTC WITH ALARMS

M41T80

CLOCK OPERATION

The M41T80 is driven by a quartz-controlled oscil-

lator with a nominal frequency of 32,768Hz. The

accuracy of the Real Time Clock depends on the

frequency of the quartz crystal that is used as the

time-base for the RTC.

The 20-byte Register Map (see Table 8, page 13)

is used to both set the clock and to read the date

and time from the clock, in a binary coded decimal

format. Tenths/Hundredths of Seconds, Seconds,

Minutes, and Hours are contained within the first

four registers.

Note: A WRITE to any clock register will result in

the Tenths/Hundredths of Seconds being reset to

“00,” and Tenths/Hundredths of Seconds cannot

be written to any value other than “00.”

Bits D6 and D7 of Clock Register 03h (Century/

Hours Register) contain the CENTURY ENABLE

Bit (CEB) and the CENTURY Bit (CB). Setting

CEB to a '1' will cause CB to toggle, either from '0'

to '1' or from '1' to '0' at the turn of the century (de-

pending upon its initial state). If CEB is set to a '0,'

CB will not toggle. Bits D0 through D2 of Register

04h contain the Day (day of week). Registers 05h,

06h, and 07h contain the Date (day of month),

Month and Years. The ninth clock register is the

Control Register. Bit D7 of Register 01h contains

the STOP Bit (ST). Setting this bit to a '1' will cause

the oscillator to stop. If the device is expected to

spend a significant amount of time on the shelf, the

oscillator may be stopped to reduce current drain.

When reset to a '0' the oscillator restarts within

four seconds (typically one second).

The eight Clock Registers may be read one byte at

a time, or in a sequential block. Provision has been

made to assure that a clock update does not occur

while any of the eight clock addresses are being

read. If a clock address is being read, an update of

the clock registers will be halted. This will prevent

a transition of data during the READ.

TIMEKEEPER® Registers

The M41T80 offers 20 internal registers which

contain Clock, Alarm, 32kHz, Flag, Square Wave,

and Control data. These registers are memory lo-

cations which contain external (user accessible)

and internal copies of the data (usually referred to

as BiPORT™ TIMEKEEPER cells). The external

copies are independent of internal functions ex-

cept that they are updated periodically by the si-

multaneous transfer of the incremented internal

copy. The internal divider (or clock) chain will be

reset upon the completion of a WRITE to any clock

address.

The system-to-user transfer of clock data will be

halted whenever the address being read is a clock

address (00h to 07h). The update will resume ei-

ther due to a Stop Condition or when the pointer

increments to any non-clock address (08h-13h).

TIMEKEEPER and Alarm Registers store data in

BCD. Control, 32kHz, and Square Wave Registers

store data in Binary Format.
