The DS1347 SPI-compatible real-time clock (RTC) contains a real-time clock/calendar and 31 x 8 bits of static random-access memory (SRAM). The real-time clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, year, and century information. A time/date programmable polled ALARM is included in the device. The end-of-the-month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap year. The clock operates in either the 24hr or 12hr format with an active-low AM/PM indicator. The device operates with a supply voltage of +2V to +5.5V, are available in the ultra-small 8-pin TDFN package, and work over the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
Key Features
- Completely Manages All Timekeeping Functions
- RTC Counts Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Day of Week, Date of Month, Month, Year, and Century
- Leap-Year Compensation
- 31 x 8-Bit SRAM for Scratchpad Data Storage
- Programmable Time/Date Polled ALARM Function
- Uses Standard 32.768kHz Watch Crystal
- Low-Power Operation Extends Battery Life
- Low Timekeeping Current (400nA at 2V)
- +2V to +5.5V Wide Operating Voltage Range
- Standard Serial Port Interfaces with Most Microcontrollers
- SPI (Mode 1 or 3) Interface: 4MHz at 5V, 1MHz at 2V
- Single-Byte or Multiple-Byte (Burst Mode) Data Transfer for Read or Write of Clock Registers or SRAM
- 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm, 8-Pin TDFN Package Minimizes Required Space
- No External Crystal Bias Resistors or Capacitors Required
Applications/Uses
- Battery-Powered Products
- Fax Machines
- Intelligent Instruments
- Point-of-Sale Equipment
- Portable Instruments
