TABLE 19-5:
EC INTERRUPTS
Source
RTC
RTC ALARM
Description
This interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator when any of the fol-
lowing events occur:
• Update complete. This is triggered, at 1-second intervals, when the
Time register updates have completed
• Alarm. This is triggered when the alarm value matches the current
time (and date, if used)
• Periodic. This is triggered at the chosen programmable rate
This wake interrupt is signaled to the Interrupt Aggregator when an Alarm
event occurs.
19.9 Low Power Modes
The RTC has no low-power modes. It runs continuously while the VBAT well is powered.
19.10 Description
This block provides the capabilities of an industry-standard 146818B Real-Time Clock module, excluding the CMOS
RAM and the SQW output. See the following registers, which represent enhancements to this architecture. These
enhancements are listed below.
See the Date Alarm field of Register D for a Day of Month qualifier for alarms.
See the Week Alarm Register for a Day of Week qualifier for alarms.
See the registers Daylight Savings Forward Register and Daylight Savings Backward Register for setting up hands-off
Daylight Savings adjustments.
See the RTC Control Register for enhanced control over the block’s operations.
19.11 Runtime Registers
The addresses of each register listed in this table are defined as a relative offset to the host “Base Address” defined in
Runtime Register Base Address Table.
