Real Time Clock with I2C or SPI, Crystal Temperature
Compensation, Battery Switchover and Trickle Charger
Description
The EM3027 is an Ultra Low Power CMOS real-time
clock IC with two serial interface modes: I2C or SPI. The
interface mode is selected by the chip version (see §12).
The basic clock is obtained from the 32.768 kHz crystal
oscillator. A thermal compensation of the frequency is
based on the temperature measurement and calculation
of the correction value. The temperature can be
measured internally or be input by an external application
to the register.
The chip provides clock and calendar information in BCD
format with alarm possibility. The actual contents are
latched at the beginning of a read transmission and
afterwards data are read without clock counter data
corruption.
An integrated 16-bit timer can run in Zero-Stop or Auto-
Reload mode.
An interrupt request signal can be provided through
INT/IRQ pin generated from alarm, timer, voltage
detector and Self-Recovery system.
An integrated trickle charger allows recharging backup
supply V
Back
from the main supply voltage V
CC
through
internal resistor(s). The internal device supply will
switchover to V
CC
when V
CC
is higher than V
Back
and vice
versa.
The device operates over a wide 1.4 to 5.5V supply
range and requires only 900 nA at 5V. It can detect
internally two supply voltage levels.
