PIN DESCRIPTION
PIN
NAME
FUNCTION
Square-Wave Output. When enabled, the SQW pin outputs a 32.768kHz square wave. If the square
1
SQW wave (E32K) and battery-backup 32kHz (BB32) bits are enabled, power is provided by VBAUX when
VCC is absent.
Kickstart Input. This pin is used to wake up a system from an external event, such as a key closure.

KS
The KS pin is normally connected using a pullup resistor to VBAUX. If the KS function is not used,
connect to ground.
Battery input for any standard 3V lithium cell or other energy source. Battery voltage must be held

VBAT
between 2.5V and 3.7V for proper operation. UL recognized to ensure against reverse charging
current when used with a lithium battery. If not used, connect to ground.*
Auxiliary battery input for any standard 3V lithium cell or other energy source. Battery voltage must

VBAUX
be held between 2.5V and 3.7V for proper operation. Provides backup power to the device, and
provides power for auxiliary functions. UL recognized to ensure against reverse charging current
when used with a lithium battery. If not used, connect to ground.*

Chip-Enable Output. Buffered chip-enable output signal for external SRAM switches high when VCCI
falls below the power-fail point VPF.
6
CEI
Chip-Enable Input. Input for chip-enable signal for external SRAM.

WE
Write-Enable Input. Active-low input that enables DQ0–DQ7 for data input to the device.
DC power is applied to the device on these pins. VCC is the positive terminal. When power is applied

within the normal limits, the device is fully accessible and data can be written and read. When VCC
drops below the normal limits, reads and writes are inhibited. As VCC drops below the battery
voltage, the RAM and timekeeping circuits are switched over to the battery.

VCC0
Buffered VCC output to external SRAM. Switches to either VBAT or VBAUX when in data retention
mode.

Power-On Output (Open Drain). This output, if used, is normally connected to power-supply control
circuitry. This pin requires a pullup resistor connected to a positive supply to operate correctly.
Connections for a standard 32.768kHz quartz crystal. For greatest accuracy, the DS1500 must be
used with a crystal that has a specified load capacitance of either 6pF or 12.5pF. The crystal select
(CS) bit in control register B is used to select operation with a 6pF or 12.5pF crystal. The crystal is
attached directly to the X1 and X2 pins. There is no need for external capacitors or resistors. An
external 32.768kHz oscillator can also drive the DS1500. In this configuration, the X1 pin is
connected to the external oscillator signal and the X2 pin is left unconnected. For more information
about crystal selection and crystal layout considerations, refer to Application Note 58: Crystal
Considerations with Maxim Real-Time Clocks (RTCs). See Figure 8.
Reset Output (Open Drain). This output, if used, is normally connected to a microprocessor-reset
input. This pin requires a pullup resistor connected to a positive supply to operate correctly. When
RST is active, the device is not accessible.
Interrupt Output (Open Drain). This output, if used, is normally connected to a microprocessor
interrupt input. This pin requires a pullup resistor connected to a positive supply to operate correctly.
