DS1744-120

Product Summary

The DS1744-120 is a full-function, year-2000-compliant (Y2KC), real-time clock/calendar (RTC) and 32k x 8 NV SRAM. User access to all registers within the DS1744-120 is accomplished with a byte-wide interface. The RTC information and control bits reside in the eight uppermost RAM locations. The RTC registers contain century, year, month, date, day, hours, minutes, and seconds data in 24-hour BCD format. Corrections for the date of each month and leap year are made automatically. The RTC clock registers are double-buffered to avoid access of incorrect data that can occur during clock update cycles. The double-buffered system also prevents time loss as the timekeeping countdown continues unabated by access to time register data. The DS1744-120 also contains its own power-fail circuitry that deselects the device when the VCC supply is in an out-of-tolerance condition. This feature prevents loss of data from unpredictable system operation brought on by low VCC as errant access and update cycles are avoided.
