Integrated RTC, TCXO and quartz crystal
• Address registers 1Ah and 1Bh are for internal use only.
• The registers Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Months, and Years are all coded in
Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) format to simplify application use. Other registers are
either bit-wise or standard binary.

Fig 3. Handling address registers
When one of the RTC registers is read, the content of all counters is temporarily frozen.
This prevents a faulty reading of the clock and calendar during a carry condition (see
Section 8.8.8).
Table 4. Register overview
Bit positions labeled as - are not implemented and will return 0 when read. Bits labeled as T must always be written with
logic 0. Bits labeled as X are undefined at power-on and unchanged by subsequent resets.
