Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
General Description
The DS1341/DS1342 low-current real-time clocks (RTCs)
are timekeeping devices that provide an extremely low
standby current, which permits longer life from a power
supply. The DS1341/DS1342 support high-ESR crystals,
which broaden the pool of usable crystals for the devices.
The DS1341 uses a 6pF crystal, while the DS1342 uses a
12.5pF crystal. These devices are accessed through an
I2C serial interface. Other features include two time-of-day
alarms, two interrupt outputs, a programmable square-
wave output, and a serial bus timeout mechanism.
The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours,
day, date, month, and year information. The date at the
end of the month is automatically adjusted for months
with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap
year. The clock operates in either 24hr or 12hr format
with an AM/PM indicator.
The DS1341/DS1342 also include an input for synchroni-
zation. When a reference clock (e.g., 60Hz power line or
GPS 1PPS) is present at the CLKIN pin and the enable
external clock input bit (ECLK) is set to 1, the DS1341/
DS1342 RTCs are frequency-locked to the external clock
and the clock accuracy is determined by the external
source. In case of external clock failure, the clock is
switched to the crystal oscillator.
The devices are available in lead(Pb)-free/RoHS-
compliant, 8-pin FSOP or TDFN packages. The devices
support a -40NC to +85NC extended temperature range.
