DATASHEET
REAL-TIME CLOCK WITH BATTERY BACKED NON-VOLATILE RAM IDT1338
General Description
The IDT1338 is a serial real-time clock (RTC) device that
consumes ultra-low power and provides a full binary-coded
decimal (BCD) clock/calendar with 56 bytes of battery
backed Non-Volatile Static RAM. The clock/calendar
provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and
year information. The clock operates in either the 24-hour
or 12-hour format with AM/PM indicator. The end of the
month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer
than 31 days, including corrections for leap year. Access to
the clock/calendar registers is provided by an I2C interface
capable of operating in fast I2C mode. Built-in Power-sense
circuitry detects power failures and automatically switches
to the backup supply, maintaining time and date operation.
Applications
• Telecom (Routers, Switches, Servers)
• Handheld (GPS, Point of Sale POS terminals)
• Consumer Electronics (Set-Top Box, Digital Recording,
Network Applications, Digital photo frames)
• Office (Fax/Printers, Copiers)
• Medical (Glucometer, Medicine Dispensers)
• Others (Thermostats, Vending Machines, Modems, Utility
Meters)
