Figure 2. AutoStore Mode  
Device Operation  
VCC  
The CY14B256KA nvSRAM is made up of two functional  
components paired in the same physical cell. These are a SRAM  
memory cell and a nonvolatile QuantumTrap cell. The SRAM  
memory cell operates as a standard fast static RAM. Data in the  
SRAM is transferred to the nonvolatile cell (the STORE  
operation), or from the nonvolatile cell to the SRAM (the RECALL  
operation). Using this unique architecture, all cells are stored and  
recalled in parallel. During the STORE and RECALL operations  
SRAM read and write operations are inhibited. The  
CY14B256KA supports infinite reads and writes similar to a  
typical SRAM. In addition, it provides infinite RECALL operations  
from the nonvolatile cells and up to 1 million STORE operations.  
Refer the Truth Table For SRAM Operations on page 24 for a  
complete description of read and write modes.

SRAM Read  
The CY14B256KA performs a read cycle whenever CE and OE  
are LOW, and WE and HSB are HIGH. The address specified on  
pins A0–14 determines which of the 32,768 data bytes are  
accessed. When the read is initiated by an address transition,  
the outputs are valid after a delay of tAA (read cycle #1). If the  
read is initiated by CE or OE, the outputs are valid at tACE or at  
tDOE, whichever is later (read cycle #2). The data output  
repeatedly responds to address changes within the tAA access  
time without the need for transitions on any control input pins.  
This remains valid until another address change or until CE or  
OE is brought HIGH, or WE or HSB is brought LOW.  
Figure 2 shows the proper connection of the storage capacitor  
(VCAP) for automatic STORE operation. Refer to DC Electrical  
Characteristics on page 16 for the size of the VCAP. The voltage  
on the VCAP pin is driven to VCC by a regulator on the chip. Place  
a pull-up on WE to hold it inactive during power-up. This pull-up  
is only effective if the WE signal is tristate during power-up. Many  
MPUs tristate their controls on power-up. This must be verified  
when using the pull-up. When the nvSRAM comes out of  
power-on-RECALL, the MPU must be active or the WE held  
inactive until the MPU comes out of reset.  
SRAM Write  
To reduce unnecessary nonvolatile stores, AutoStore and  
Hardware STORE operations are ignored unless at least one  
write operation has taken place since the most recent STORE or  
RECALL cycle. Software initiated STORE cycles are performed  
regardless of whether a write operation has taken place.  
A write cycle is performed when CE and WE are LOW and HSB  
is HIGH. The address inputs must be stable before entering the  
write cycle and must remain stable until CE or WE goes HIGH at  
the end of the cycle. The data on the common I/O pins IO0–7 are  
written into the memory if it is valid tSD before the end of a  
WE-controlled write, or before the end of an CE-controlled write.  
It is recommended that OE be kept HIGH during the entire write  
cycle to avoid data bus contention on common I/O lines. If OE is  
left LOW, internal circuitry turns off the output buffers tHZWE after  
WE goes LOW.  
Hardware STORE (HSB) Operation  
The CY14B256KA provides the HSB pin to control and  
acknowledge the STORE operations. The HSB pin is used to  
request a Hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven  
LOW, the CY14B256KA conditionally initiates a STORE  
operation after tDELAY. An actual STORE cycle begins only if a  
write to the SRAM has taken place since the last STORE or  
RECALL cycle. The HSB pin also acts as an open drain driver  
(internal 100 kweak pull-up resistor) that is internally driven  
LOW to indicate a busy condition when the STORE (initiated by  
any means) is in progress.  
AutoStore Operation  
The CY14B256KA stores data to the nvSRAM using one of three  
storage operations. These three operations are: Hardware  
STORE, activated by the HSB; Software STORE, activated by  
an address sequence; AutoStore, on device power-down. The  
AutoStore operation is a unique feature of QuantumTrap  
technology and is enabled by default on the CY14B256KA.  
Note After each Hardware and Software STORE operation HSB  
is driven HIGH for a short time (tHHHD) with standard output high  
current and then remains HIGH by internal 100 kpull-up  
resistor.  
During normal operation, the device draws current from VCC to  
charge a capacitor connected to the VCAP pin. This stored  
charge is used by the chip to perform a single STORE operation.  
If the voltage on the VCC pin drops below VSWITCH, the part  
automatically disconnects the VCAP pin from VCC. A STORE  
operation is initiated with power provided by the VCAP capacitor.  
SRAM write operations that are in progress when HSB is driven  
LOW by any means are given time (tDELAY) to complete before  
the STORE operation is initiated. However, any SRAM write  
cycles requested after HSB goes LOW are inhibited until HSB  
returns HIGH. In case the write latch is not set, HSB is not driven  
LOW by the CY14B256KA. But any SRAM read and write cycles  
are inhibited until HSB is returned HIGH by MPU or other  
external source.  
Note If the capacitor is not connected to VCAP pin, AutoStore  
must be disabled using the soft sequence specified in Preventing  
AutoStore on page 6. In case AutoStore is enabled without a  
capacitor on VCAP pin, the device attempts an AutoStore  
operation without sufficient charge to complete the Store. This  
corrupts the data stored in nvSRAM.  
During any STORE operation, regardless of how it is initiated,  
the CY14B256KA continues to drive the HSB pin LOW, releasing  
Document Number: 001-55720 Rev. *I

CY14B256KA  
it only when the STORE is complete. Upon completion of the  
STORE operation, the nvSRAM memory access is inhibited for  
tLZHSB time after HSB pin returns HIGH. Leave the HSB  
unconnected if it is not used.  
4. Read address 0x3C1F Valid READ  
5. Read address 0x303F Valid READ  
6. Read address 0x0FC0 Initiate STORE cycle  
The software sequence may be clocked with CE controlled reads  
or OE controlled reads, with WE kept HIGH for all the six READ  
sequences. After the sixth address in the sequence is entered,  
the STORE cycle commences and the chip is disabled. HSB is  
driven LOW. After the tSTORE cycle time is fulfilled, the SRAM is  
activated again for the read and write operation.  
Hardware RECALL (Power-Up)  
During power-up or after any low power condition  
(VCC< VSWITCH), an internal RECALL request is latched. When  
VCC again exceeds the VSWITCH on powerup, a RECALL cycle  
is automatically initiated and takes tHRECALL to complete. During  
this time, the HSB pin is driven LOW by the HSB driver and all  
reads and writes to nvSRAM are inhibited.  
Software RECALL  
Data is transferred from the nonvolatile memory to the SRAM by  
a software address sequence. A Software RECALL cycle is  
initiated with a sequence of read operations in a manner similar  
to the Software STORE initiation. To initiate the RECALL cycle,  
the following sequence of CE or OE controlled read operations  
must be performed:  
Software STORE  
Data is transferred from the SRAM to the nonvolatile memory by  
a software address sequence. The CY14B256KA Software  
STORE cycle is initiated by executing sequential CE or OE  
controlled read cycles from six specific address locations in  
exact order. During the STORE cycle, an erase of the previous  
nonvolatile data is first performed, followed by a program of the  
nonvolatile elements. After a STORE cycle is initiated, further  
input and output are disabled until the cycle is completed.

4. Read address 0x3C1F Valid READ  
5. Read address 0x303F Valid READ  
6. Read address 0x0C63 Initiate RECALL cycle  
Because a sequence of reads from specific addresses is used  
for STORE initiation, it is important that no other read or write  
accesses intervene in the sequence, or the sequence is aborted  
and no STORE or RECALL takes place.  
Internally, RECALL is a two step procedure. First, the SRAM data  
is cleared. Next, the nonvolatile information is transferred into the  
SRAM cells. After the tRECALL cycle time, the SRAM is again  
ready for read and write operations. The RECALL operation  
does not alter the data in the nonvolatile elements.  
To initiate the Software STORE cycle, the following read  
sequence must be performed:  
1. Read address 0x0E38 Valid READ  
2. Read address 0x31C7 Valid READ  
3. Read address 0x03E0 Valid READ

Preventing AutoStore  
The AutoStore function is disabled by initiating an AutoStore  
disable sequence. A sequence of read operations is performed  
in a manner similar to the Software STORE initiation. To initiate  
the AutoStore disable sequence, the following sequence of CE  
or OE controlled read operations must be performed:  
If the AutoStore function is disabled or re-enabled, a manual  
STORE operation (Hardware or Software) issued to save the  
AutoStore state through subsequent power-down cycles. The  
part comes from the factory with AutoStore enabled and 0x00  
written in all cells.

5. Read address 0x303F Valid READ  
6. Read address 0x0B45 AutoStore Disable  
Data Protection  
The CY14B256KA protects data from corruption during low  
voltage conditions by inhibiting all externally initiated STORE  
and write operations. The low voltage condition is detected when  
The AutoStore is reenabled by initiating an AutoStore enable  
sequence. A sequence of read operations is performed in a  
manner similar to the Software RECALL initiation.  
VCC is less than VSWITCH. If the CY14B256KA is in a write mode  
(both CE and WE are LOW) at power-up, after a RECALL or  
STORE, the write is inhibited until the SRAM is enabled after  
tLZHSB (HSB to output active). This protects against inadvertent  
writes during power-up or brown out conditions.  
To initiate the AutoStore enable sequence, the following  
sequence of CE or OE controlled read operations must be  
performed:  
Notes  
3. While there are 15 address lines on the CY14B256KA, only the lower 14 are used to control software modes.  
4. The six consecutive address locations must be in the order listed. WE must be HIGH during all six cycles to enable a nonvolatile cycle.

CY14B256KA  
Software/Hardware STORE or AutoStore operation. While  
working in AutoStore disabled mode, perform a STORE  
operation after tRTCp time while writing into the RTC registers for  
the modifications to be correctly recorded.  
Real Time Clock Operation  
nvTIME Operation  
The CY14B256KA offers internal registers that contain clock,  
alarm, watchdog, interrupt, and control functions. RTC registers  
use the last 16 address locations of the SRAM. Internal double  
buffering of the clock and timer information registers prevents  
accessing transitional internal clock data during a read or write  
operation. Double buffering also circumvents disrupting normal  
timing counts or the clock accuracy of the internal clock when  
accessing clock data. Clock and alarm registers store data in  
BCD format.  
Backup Power  
The RTC in the CY14B256KA is intended for permanently  
powered operation. The VRTCcap or VRTCbat pin is connected  
depending on whether a capacitor or battery is chosen for the  
application. When the primary power, VCC, fails and drops below  
VSWITCH the device switches to the backup power supply.  
The clock oscillator uses very little current, which maximizes the  
backup time available from the backup source. Regardless of the  
clock operation with the primary source removed, the data stored  
in the nvSRAM is secure, having been stored in the nonvolatile  
elements when power was lost.  
RTC functionality is described in the following sections. The RTC  
register addresses for CY14B256KA range from 0x7FF0 to  
0x7FFF. Refer to Table 3 on page 12 and Table 4 on page 13 for  
a detailed Register Map description.  
During backup operation, the CY14B256KA consumes a  
0.35 µA (Typ) at room temperature. The user must choose  
capacitor or battery values according to the application.  
Clock Operations  
The clock registers maintain time up to 9,999 years in  
one-second increments. The time can be set to any calendar  
time and the clock automatically keeps track of days of the week  
and month, leap years, and century transitions. There are eight  
registers dedicated to the clock functions, which are used to set  
time with a write cycle and to read time with a read cycle. These  
registers contain the time of day in BCD format. Bits defined as  
‘0’ are currently not used and are reserved for future use by  
Cypress.  
Note: If a battery is applied to VRTCbat pin prior to VCC, the chip  
will draw high IBAK current. This occurs even if the oscillator is  
disabled. In order to maximize battery life, VCC must be applied  
before a battery is applied to VRTCbat pin.  
Backup time values based on maximum current specifications  
are shown in the following Table 2. Nominal backup times are  
approximately two times longer.  
Table 2. RTC Backup Time

Backup Time

The double buffered RTC register structure reduces the chance  
of reading incorrect data from the clock. Internal updates to the  
CY14B256KA time keeping registers are stopped when the read  
bit ‘R’ (in the flags register at 0x7FF0) is set to ‘1’ before reading  
clock data to prevent reading of data in transition. Stopping the  
register updates does not affect clock accuracy.

30 days  
Using a capacitor has the obvious advantage of recharging the  
backup source each time the system is powered up. If a battery  
is used, a 3 V lithium is recommended and the CY14B256KA  
sources current only from the battery when the primary power is  
removed. However, the battery is not recharged at any time by  
the CY14B256KA. The battery capacity must be chosen for total  
anticipated cumulative down time required over the life of the  
system.  
When a read sequence of RTC device is initiated, the update of  
the user timekeeping registers stops and does not restart until a  
‘0’ is written to the read bit ‘R’ (in the flags register at 0x7FF0).  
After the end of read sequence, all the RTC registers are simul-  
taneously updated within 20 ms.  
Setting the Clock  
Stopping and Starting the Oscillator  
A write access to the RTC device stops updates to the time  
keeping registers and enables the time to be set when the write  
bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at 0x7FF0) is set to ‘1’. The correct  
day, date, and time is then written into the registers and must be  
in 24 hour BCD format. The time written is referred to as the  
“Base Time”. This value is stored in nonvolatile registers and  
used in the calculation of the current time. When the write bit ‘W’  
is cleared by writing ‘0’ to it, the values of timekeeping registers  
are transferred to the actual clock counters after which the clock  
resumes normal operation.  
The OSCEN bit in the calibration register at 0x7FF8 controls the  
enable and disable of the oscillator. This bit is nonvolatile and is  
shipped to customers in the “enabled” (set to ‘0’) state. To  
preserve the battery life when the system is in storage, OSCEN  
must be set to ‘1’. This turns off the oscillator circuit, extending  
the battery life. If the OSCEN bit goes from disabled to enabled,  
it takes approximately one second (two seconds maximum) for  
the oscillator to start.  
While system power is off, if the voltage on the backup supply  
(VRTCcap or VRTCbat) falls below their respective minimum level,  
the oscillator may fail.The CY14B256KA has the ability to detect  
oscillator failure when system power is restored. This is recorded  
in the Oscillator Fail Flag (OSCF) of the flags register at the  
address 0x7FF0. When the device is powered on (VCC goes  
above VSWITCH) the OSCEN bit is checked for the ‘enabled’  
status. If the OSCEN bit is enabled and the oscillator is not active  
If the time written to the timekeeping registers is not in the correct  
BCD format, each invalid nibble of the RTC registers continue  
counting to 0xF before rolling over to 0x0 after which RTC  
resumes normal operation.  
Note After ‘W’ bit is set to ‘0’, values written into the timekeeping,  
alarm, calibration, and interrupt registers are transferred to the  
RTC time keeping counters in tRTCp time. These counter values  
must be saved to nonvolatile memory either by initiating a

CY14B256KA  
within the first 5 ms, the OSCF bit is set to ‘1’. The system must  
check for this condition and then write ‘0’ to clear the flag.  
Alarm  
The alarm function compares user programmed values of alarm  
time and date (stored in the registers 0x7FF1-5) with the corre-  
sponding time of day and date values. When a match occurs, the  
alarm internal flag (AF) is set and an interrupt is generated on  
INT pin if Alarm Interrupt Enable (AIE) bit is set.  
Note that in addition to setting the OSCF flag bit, the time  
registers are reset to the ‘Base Time’, which is the value last  
written to the timekeeping registers. The control or calibration  
registers and the OSCEN bit are not affected by the ‘oscillator  
failed’ condition.  
There are four alarm match fields – date, hours, minutes, and  
seconds. Each of these fields has a match bit that is used to  
determine if the field is used in the alarm match logic. Setting the  
match bit to ‘0’ indicates that the corresponding field is used in  
the match process. Depending on the match bits, the alarm  
occurs as specifically as once a month or as frequently as once  
every minute. Selecting none of the match bits (all 1s) indicates  
that no match is required and therefore, alarm is disabled.  
Selecting all match bits (all 0s) causes an exact time and date  
match.  
The value of OSCF must be reset to ‘0’ when the time registers  
are written for the first time. This initializes the state of this bit  
which may have become set when the system was first powered  
on.  
To reset OSCF, set the write bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at  
0x7FF0) to a ‘1’ to enable writes to the flags register . Write a ‘0’  
to the OSCF bit and then reset the write bit to ‘0’ to disable writes.  
Calibrating the Clock  
The RTC is driven by a quartz controlled crystal with a nominal  
frequency of 32.768 kHz. Clock accuracy depends on the quality  
of the crystal and calibration. The crystals available in market  
typically have an error of +20 ppm to +35 ppm. However,  
CY14B256KA employs a calibration circuit that improves the  
accuracy to +1/–2 ppm at 25 °C. This implies an error of +2.5  
seconds to –5 seconds per month.  
There are two ways to detect an alarm event: by reading the AF  
flag or monitoring the INT pin. The AF flag in the flags register  
at 0x7FF0 indicates that a date or time match has occurred. The  
AF bit is set to ‘1’ when a match occurs. Reading the flags  
register clears the alarm flag bit (and all others). A hardware  
interrupt pin may also be used to detect an alarm event.  
To set, clear or enable an alarm, set the ‘W’ bit (in flags register  
– 0x7FF0) to ‘1’ to enable writes to Alarm Registers. After writing  
the alarm value, clear the ‘W’ bit back to ‘0’ for the changes to  
take effect.  
The calibration circuit adds or subtracts counts from the oscillator  
divider circuit to achieve this accuracy. The number of pulses that  
are suppressed (subtracted, negative calibration) or split (added,  
positive calibration) depends upon the value loaded into the five  
calibration bits found in Calibration register at 0x7FF8. The  
calibration bits occupy the five lower order bits in the Calibration  
register. These bits are set to represent any value between ‘0’  
and 31 in binary form. Bit D5 is a sign bit, where a ‘1’ indicates  
positive calibration and a ‘0’ indicates negative calibration.  
Adding counts speeds the clock up and subtracting counts slows  
the clock down. If a binary ‘1’ is loaded into the register, it  
corresponds to an adjustment of 4.068 or –2.034 ppm offset in  
oscillator error, depending on the sign.  
Note CY14B256KA requires the alarm match bit for seconds (bit  
‘D7’ in Alarm-Seconds register 0x7FF2) to be set to ‘0’ for proper  
operation of Alarm Flag and Interrupt..  
Watchdog Timer  
The watchdog timer is a free running down counter that uses the  
32 Hz clock (31.25 ms) derived from the crystal oscillator. The  
oscillator must be running for the watchdog to function. It begins  
counting down from the value loaded in the watchdog timer  
register.  
Calibration occurs within a 64-minute cycle. The first 62 minutes  
in the cycle may, once every minute, have one second shortened  
by 128 or lengthened by 256 oscillator cycles. If a binary ‘1’ is  
loaded into the register, only the first two minutes of the  
64-minute cycle are modified. If a binary 6 is loaded, the first 12  
are affected, and so on. Therefore, each calibration step has the  
effect of adding 512 or subtracting 256 oscillator cycles for every  
125,829,120 actual oscillator cycles, that is, 4.068 or –2.034 ppm  
of adjustment per calibration step in the Calibration register.  
The timer consists of a loadable register and a free running  
counter. On power-up, the watchdog time out value in register  
0x7FF7 is loaded into the counter load register. Counting begins  
on power-up and restarts from the loadable value any time the  
watchdog strobe (WDS) bit is set to ‘1’. The counter is compared  
to the terminal value of ‘0’. If the counter reaches this value, it  
causes an internal flag and an optional interrupt output. You can  
prevent the time out interrupt by setting WDS bit to ‘1’ prior to the  
counter reaching ‘0’. This causes the counter to reload with the  
watchdog time out value and to be restarted. As long as the user  
sets the WDS bit prior to the counter reaching the terminal value,  
the interrupt and WDT flag never occur.  
To determine the required calibration, the CAL bit in the flags  
register (0x7FF0) must be set to ‘1’. This causes the INT pin to  
toggle at a nominal frequency of 512 Hz. Any deviation  
measured from the 512 Hz indicates the degree and direction of  
the required correction. For example, a reading of 512.01024 Hz  
indicates a +20 ppm error. Hence, a decimal value of –10  
(001010b) must be loaded into the Calibration register to offset  
this error.  
New time out values are written by setting the watchdog write bit  
to ‘0’. When the WDW is ‘0’, new writes to the watchdog time out  
value bits D5–D0 are enabled to modify the time out value. When  
WDW is ‘1’, writes to bits D5–D0 are ignored. The WDW function  
enables a user to set the WDS bit without concern that the  
watchdog timer value is modified. A logical diagram of the  
watchdog timer is shown in Figure 3. Note that setting the  
watchdog time out value to ‘0’ disables the watchdog function.  
Note Setting or changing the Calibration register does not affect  
the test output frequency.  
To set or clear CAL, set the write bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at  
0x7FF0) to ‘1’ to enable writes to the flags register . Write a value  
to CAL, and then reset the write bit to ‘0’ to disable writes.  
The output of the watchdog timer is the flag bit WDF that is set if  
the watchdog is allowed to time out. If the watchdog interrupt  
enable (WIE) bit in the interrupt register is set, a hardware

interrupt on INT pin is also generated on watchdog timeout. The  
flag and the hardware interrupt are both cleared when user reads  
internally fixed at approximately 200 ms. This mode is intended  
to reset a host microcontroller. In the level mode, the pin goes to  
its active polarity until the flags register is read by the user. This  
mode is used as an interrupt to a host microcontroller. The  
control bits are summarized in the following section.

Power Monitor  
The CY14B256KA provides a power management scheme with  
power fail interrupt capability. It also controls the internal switch  
to backup power for the clock and protects the memory from low  
High/Low (H/L). When set to a ‘1’, the INT pin is active HIGH  
and the driver mode is push pull. The INT pin drives high only  
when VCC is greater than VSWITCH. When set to a ‘0’, the INT pin  
is active LOW and the drive mode is open drain. The INT pin  
must be pulled up to Vcc by a 10 k resistor while using the  
interrupt in active LOW mode.  
VCC access. The power monitor is based on an internal band gap  
reference circuit that compares the VCC voltage to VSWITCH  
threshold.  
As described in the AutoStore Operation on page 4, when  
VSWITCH is reached as VCC decays from power loss, a data  
STORE operation is initiated from SRAM to the nonvolatile  
elements, securing the last SRAM data state. Power is also  
switched from VCC to the backup supply (battery or capacitor) to  
operate the RTC oscillator.  
Pulse/Level (P/L). When set to a ‘1’ and an interrupt occurs, the  
INT pin is driven for approximately 200 ms. When P/L is set to a  
‘0’, the INT pin is driven high or low (determined by H/L) until the  
flags register is read.  
When an enabled interrupt source activates the INT pin, an  
external host reads the flags register to determine the cause. All  
flags are cleared when the register is read. If the INT pin is  
programmed for level mode, then the condition clears and the  
INT pin returns to its inactive state. If the pin is programmed for  
pulse mode, then reading the flag also clears the flag and the pin.  
The pulse does not complete its specified duration if the flags  
register is read. If the INT pin is used as a host reset, then the  
flags register is not read during a reset.  
When operating from the backup source, read and write  
operations to nvSRAM are inhibited and the RTC functions are  
not available to the user. The RTC clock continues to operate in  
the background. The updated RTC time keeping registers data  
are available to the user after VCC is restored to the device (see  
AutoStore/Power-Up RECALL on page 21).  
Interrupts  
The CY14B256KA has flags register, interrupt register and  
interrupt logic that can signal interrupt to the microcontroller.  
There are three potential sources for interrupt: watchdog timer,  
power monitor, and alarm timer. Each of these can be individually  
enabled to drive the INT pin by appropriate setting in the interrupt  
register (0x7FF6). In addition, each has an associated flag bit in  
the flags register (0x7FF0) that the host processor uses to  
determine the cause of the interrupt. The INT pin driver has two  
bits that specify its behavior when an interrupt occurs.  
Flags Register  
The flags register has three flag bits: WDF, AF, and PF, which  
can be used to generate an interrupt. These flags are set by the  
watchdog timeout, alarm match, or power fail monitor  
respectively. The processor can either poll this register or enable  
interrupts to be informed when a flag is set. These flags are  
automatically reset when the register is read. The flags register  
is automatically loaded with the value 0x00 on power-up (except  
for the OSCF bit; see Stopping and Starting the Oscillator on  
page 7).  
An interrupt is raised only if both a flag is raised by one of the  
three sources and the respective interrupt enable bit in interrupts  
register is enabled (set to ‘1’). After an interrupt source is active,  
two programmable bits, H/L and P/L, determine the behavior of  
the output pin driver on INT pin. These two bits are located in the  
interrupt register and can be used to drive level or pulse mode  
output from the INT pin. In pulse mode, the pulse width is

CY14B256KA  
Keep Xin and Xout trace width lesser than 8 mils. Wider trace  
width leads to larger trace capacitance. The larger these bond  
pads and traces are, the more likely it is that noise can couple  
from adjacent signals.  
PCB Design Considerations for RTC  
RTC crystal oscillator is a low current circuit with high impedance  
nodes on their crystal pins. Due to lower timekeeping current of  
RTC, the crystal connections are very sensitive to noise on the  
board. Hence it is necessary to isolate the RTC circuit from other  
signals on the board.  
Shield the Xin and Xout signals by providing a guard ring around  
the crystal circuitry. This guard ring prevents noise coupling  
from neighboring signals.  
It is also critical to minimize the stray capacitance on the PCB.  
Stray capacitances add to the overall crystal load capacitance  
and therefore cause oscillation frequency errors. Proper  
bypassing and careful layout are required to achieve the  
optimum RTC performance.  
Take care while routing any other high speed signal in the  
vicinity of RTC traces. The more the crystal is isolated from  
other signals on the board, the less likely it is that noise is  
coupled into the crystal. Maintain a minimum of 200 mil  
separation between the Xin, Xout traces and any other high  
speed signal on the board.  
Layout requirements  
The board layout must adhere to (but not limited to) the following  
guidelines during routing RTC circuitry. Following these guide-  
lines help you achieve optimum performance from the RTC  
design.  
No signals should run underneath crystal components on the  
same PCB layer.  
Create an isolated solid copper plane on adjacent PCB layer and  
underneath the crystal circuitry to prevent unwanted noise  
coupled from traces routed on the other signal layers of the PCB.  
The local plane should be separated by at least 40 mils from the  
neighboring plane on the same PCB layer. The solid plane  
should be in the vicinity of RTC components only and its  
perimeter should be kept equal to the guard ring perimeter.  
Figure 6 shows the recommended layout for RTC circuit.  
It is important to place the crystal as close as possible to the  
Xin and Xout pins. Keep the trace lengths between the crystal  
and RTC equal in length and as short as possible to reduce the  
probability of noise coupling by reducing the length of the  
antenna.

The bit is cleared automatically after the watchdog timer is reset. The WDS bit is write only. Reading it always  
returns a 0.  
WDW  
Watchdog write enable. Setting this bit to ‘1’ disables any WRITE to the watchdog timeout value (D5–D0). This  
allows the user to set the watchdog strobe bit without disturbing the timeout value. Setting this bit to ‘0’ allows  
bits D5–D0 to be written to the watchdog register when the next write cycle is complete. This function is explained  
in more detail in Watchdog Timer on page 8.  
WDT  
Watchdog timeout selection. The watchdog timer interval is selected by the 6-bit value in this register. It  
represents a multiplier of the 32 Hz count (31.25 ms). The range of timeout value is 31.25 ms (a setting of 1) to  
2 seconds (setting of 3 Fh). Setting the watchdog timer register to 0 disables the timer. These bits can be written  
only if the WDW bit was set to 0 on a previous cycle.

Watchdog interrupt enable. When set to ‘1’ and a watchdog timeout occurs, the watchdog timer drives the INT  
pin and the WDF flag. When set to ‘0’, the watchdog timeout affects only the WDF flag.  
Alarm interrupt enable. When set to ‘1’, the alarm match drives the INT pin and the AF flag. When set to ‘0’, the  
alarm match only affects the AF flag.  
PFE  
Power fail enable. When set to ‘1’, the power fail monitor drives the INT pin and the PF flag. When set to ‘0’, the  
power fail monitor affects only the PF flag.

H/L  
P/L  
High/Low. When set to ‘1’, the INT pin is driven active HIGH. When set to ‘0’, the INT pin is open drain, active LOW.  
Pulse/Level. When set to ‘1’, the INT pin is driven active (determined by H/L) by an interrupt source for  
approximately 200 ms. When set to ‘0’, the INT pin is driven to an active level (as set by H/L) until the flags  
register is read.

Watchdog timer flag. This read only bit is set to ‘1’ when the watchdog timer is allowed to reach 0 without being  
reset by the user. It is cleared to ‘0’ when the flags register is read or on power-up.  
Alarm flag. This read only bit is set to ‘1’ when the time and date match the values stored in the alarm registers  
with the match bits = 0. It is cleared when the flags register is read or on power-up.  
PF  
Power fail flag. This read only bit is set to 1 when power falls below the power fail threshold VSWITCH. It is cleared  
to 0 when the flags register is read or on power-up.  
OSCF  
Oscillator fail flag. Set to ‘1’ on power-up if the oscillator is enabled and not running in the first 5 ms of operation.  
This indicates that RTC backup power failed and clock value is no longer valid. This bit survives the power cycle  
and is never cleared internally by the chip. The user must check for this condition and write '0' to clear this flag.  
When user resets OSCF flag bit, the bit will be updated after tRTCp time.  
CAL  
W
Calibration mode. When set to ‘1’, a 512 Hz square wave is output on the INT pin. When set to ‘0’, the INT pin  
resumes normal operation. This bit defaults to 0 (disabled) on power-up.  
Write enable: Setting the ‘W’ bit to ‘1’ freezes updates of the RTC registers. The user can then write to RTC  
registers, alarm registers, calibration register, interrupt register and flags register. Setting the ‘W’ bit to ‘0’ causes  
the contents of the RTC registers to be transferred to the time keeping counters if the time has changed. This  
transfer process takes tRTCp time to complete. This bit defaults to 0 on power-up.  
R
Read enable: Setting ‘R’ bit to ‘1’, stops clock updates to user RTC registers so that clock updates are not seen  
during the reading process. Set ‘R’ bit to ‘0’ to resume clock updates to the holding register. Setting this bit does  
not require ‘W’ bit to be set to ‘1’. This bit defaults to 0 on power-up.

Notes  
40. If an SRAM write has not taken place since the last nonvolatile cycle, no AutoStore or Hardware STORE takes place.  
41. This is the amount of time it takes to take action on a soft sequence command. Vcc power must remain HIGH to effectively register command.  
42. Commands such as STORE and RECALL lock out I/O until operation is complete which further increases this time. See the specific command.
