RTC-658X/RTC-659X
(5) During ultrasonic cleaning, the crystal resonator may begin to resonate and be damaged. Since we are unable to
specify the conditions (type of cleaning equipment, power, time, positioning within container, etc.) under which
ultrasonic cleaning may be used, we do not guarantee this device under ultrasonic cleaning.
(6) Since this RTC utilizes a CMOS IC, the same handling precautions concerning static electricity that apply to typical
CMOS ICs also apply to this device.
(7) Since a floating for the input pins may result in increased current consumption and damage to the device, be sure
that the input pin voltage has a potential setting near that of VDD and VSS.
(8) Concerning input impedance: since the CMOS inputs that are used result in a high level of noise induction, either
unused pins should be connected directly to VDD or GND, or pull-up or pull-down resistance of several kilohms
should be provided.
Pins indicated as NC have no internal connections. Inputting a signal to any of them has no effect.
(9) Condensation can cause errors, so the same precautions concerning condensation that apply to typical CMOS ICS
should also be used with this device.
(10) Keep this device at room temperature and normal humidity when storing this device in a packaged state.
(11) (12) and below are only for DIP type.
(12) Do not remove or modify the battery holder.
(13) Do not connect an external power supply, etc., to the battery contacts.
(14) Do not use old and new batteries together.
(15) Use the specified lithium batteries.
BR1225 (Size: diameter - 12.5mm; Thickness - 2.5mm; Nominal voltage - 3.0V)
(16) Be sure to insert the batteries correctly in terms of polarity (+, -).
(17) If the batteries should leakage, wipe off the leakage and replace the new batteries.
(18) Battery insertion and removal:
The batteries have a tendency to pop out during removal. Place your finger over the top of the battery (the + side)
during removal to prevent it from popping out.
Position a stick (a diameter of 1 to 1.3 mm is best) against the side of the battery and press it in the direction indicated
in the illustration.
