1Hz signal is synchronized to the STOP condition during a
valid write cycle.
CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR ENABLE BIT (XTOSCB)
This bit enables/disables the internal crystal oscillator. When
the XTOSCB is set to “1”, the oscillator is disabled, and the
X1 pin allows for an external 32kHz signal to drive the RTC.
The XTOSCB bit is set to “0” on power up.
AUTO RESET ENABLE BIT (ARST)
This bit enables/disables the automatic reset of the BAT and
ALM, EVT status bits only. When ARST bit is set to “1”, these
status bits are reset to “0” after a valid read of the Status
Register (with a valid STOP condition). When the ARST is
cleared to “0”, the user must manually reset the BAT, ALM,
and EVT bits.
INTERRUPT CONTROL REGISTER (INT)
The interrupt control register contains Frequency Output,
Alarm, and Battery switchover control bits.
NOTE: Writing to register 08h has restrictions. If V
BAT
>V
DD
, then no
byte writes to register 08h are allowed, only page writes beginning
with register 07h. If V
DD
>V
BAT
, then a byte write to register 08h IS
allowed, as well as page writes.
FREQUENCY OUT CONTROL BITS (FO <3:0>)
These bits enable/disable the frequency output function and
select the output frequency at the IRQ/F
OUT
pin. See
Table 8 for frequency selection. When the frequency mode is
enabled, it will override the alarm mode at the IRQ/F
OUT
pin.
FREQUENCY OUTPUT AND INTERRUPT BIT (FOBATB)
This bit enables/disables the F
OUT
/IRQ pin during battery
backup mode (i.e. V
BAT
power source active). When the
FOBATB is set to “1” the F
OUT
/IRQ pin is disabled during
battery backup mode. This means that both the frequency
output and alarm output functions are disabled. When the
FOBATB is cleared to “0”, the F
OUT
/IRQ pin is enabled
during battery backup mode.
LOW POWER MODE BIT (LPMODE)
This bit enables/disables low power mode. With
LPMODE = “0”, the device will be in normal mode and the
V
BAT
supply will be used when V
DD
< V
BAT
- V
BATHYS
and
V
DD
< V
TRIP
. With LPMODE = “1”, the device will be in low
power mode and the V
BAT
supply will be used when
V
DD
< V
BAT
- V
BATHYS
. There is a supply current saving of
about 600nA when using LPMODE = “1” with V
DD
= 5V.
(See Typical Performance Curves: I
DD
vs V
DD
with
LPMODE ON & OFF.)
It should be noted that any writes to the LPMODE bit that
may put the device into Low Power Mode should be avoided
if V
DD
<V
BAT
, as the device will no longer communicate over
the I2C interface (until V
DD
rises above V
BAT
).
ALARM ENABLE BIT (ALME)
This bit enables/disables the alarm function. When the ALME
bit is set to “1”, the alarm function is enabled. When the ALME
is cleared to “0”, the alarm function is disabled. The alarm
function can operate in either a single event alarm or a periodic
interrupt alarm (see IM bit).
NOTE: When the frequency output mode is enabled, the alarm function
is disabled.
INTERRUPT/ALARM MODE BIT (IM)
This bit enables/disables the interrupt mode of the alarm
function. When the IM bit is set to “1”, the alarm will operate
in the interrupt mode, where an active low pulse width of
250ms will appear at the IRQ/F
OUT
pin when the RTC is
triggered by the alarm as defined by the alarm registers (0Ch
to 11h). When the IM bit is cleared to “0”, the alarm will
operate in standard mode, where the IRQ/F
OUT
pin will be
tied low until the ALM status bit is cleared to “0”.
