The MCP79520 SPI RTCC is highly integrated with memory and advanced features normally found in higher priced devices. By starting with a basic real-time clock, digital trimming was added for higher accuracy, a battery switchover for backup power, a timestamp to log power failures and three types of memory, which includes SRAM, EEPROM and a blank unique ID in a locked section of EEPROM. The ID is blank in this device, but can also be ordered with a 48-bit or 64-bit MAC Address.
Additional Features General purpose SPI RTCC with features that target low power, security & communications applications.
Low Power Operation
VCC Min = 1.8V
Icc < 5 µA (Typical Standby Current)
Low Backup Power
VBAT Min = 1.3V
Ibat < 700nA Typical Timekeeping & SRAM Retention Current
Automatic Battery Switchover with Timestamp
VCC to VBAT (VCC Lost)
VBAT to VCC (VCC Restored)
Dual configurable alarms with a 0.01 sec count on one alarm
IRQ (VCC or VBAT)
Clock Out frequencies: 32.768, 8.192 & 4.096 KHz and 1 Hz
Digital Trimming Range from -255 to + 255 ppm in 1 ppm steps
Adjusts up to 22 seconds/day
EEPROM has 8 Bytes/Page with Block Sector write protection
Protect: None, 1/4, 1/2 or all of array
Factory standard MAC address programming or custom ID available
