Section 14 Realtime Clock (RTC)
14.5 Usage Notes
14.5.1 Register Writing during RTC Count
The following RTC registers cannot be written to during an RTC count (while bit 0 = 1 in RCR2).
RSECCNT, RMINCNT, RHRCNT, RDAYCNT, RWKCNT, RMONCNT, RYRCNT
The RTC count must be stopped before writing to any of the above registers.
14.5.2 Use of Real-time Clock (RTC) Periodic Interrupts
The method of using the periodic interrupt function is shown in figure 14.5.
A periodic interrupt can be generated periodically at the interval set by bits PES2 to PES0 in
RCR2. When the time set by bits PES2 to PES0 has elapsed, the PEF is set to 1.
The PEF is cleared to 0 upon periodic interrupt generation or when bits PES2 to PES0 are set.
Periodic interrupt generation can be confirmed by reading this bit, but normally the interrupt
function is used.
Set PES, clear PEF
Elapse of time set by PES

14.5.3 Transition to Standby Mode after Setting Register
When a transition to standby mode is made after registers in the RTC are set, sometimes counting
is not performed correctly. In case the registers are set, be sure to make a transition to standby
mode after waiting for two RTC clocks or more.
