Pin Configuration
| PIN | NAME | FUNCTION |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 32kHz | 32kHz Output. This open-drain pin requires an external pullup resistor. When enabled, the output operates on either power supply. It may be left open if not used. |
| 2 | V CC | DC Power Pin for Primary Power Supply. This pin should be decoupled using a 0.1μF to 1.0μF capacitor. If not used, connect to ground. |
| 3 | INT /SQW | Active-Low Interrupt or Square-Wave Output. This open-drain pin requires an external pullup resistor connected to a supply at 5.5V or less. This multifunction pin is determined by the state of the INTCN bit in the Control Register (0Eh). When INTCN is set to logic 0, this pin outputs a square wave and its frequency is determined by RS2 and RS1 bits. When INTCN is set to logic 1, then a match between the timekeeping registers and either of the alarm registers activates the INT /SQW pin (if the alarm is enabled). Because the INTCN bit is set to logic 1 when power is first applied, the pin defaults to an interrupt output with alarms disabled. The pullup voltage can be up to 5.5V, regardless of the voltage on V CC . If not used, this pin can be left unconnected. |
| 4 | RST | Active-Low Reset. This pin is an open-drain input/output. It indicates the status of V CC relative to the V PF specification. As V CC falls below V PF , the RST pin is driven low. When V CC exceeds V PF , for t RST , the RST pin is pulled high by the internal pullup resistor. The active-low, open-drain output is combined with a debounced pushbutton input function. This pin can be activated by a pushbutton reset request. It has an internal 50k nominal value pullup resistor to V CC . No external pullup resistors should be connected. If the oscillator is disabled, t REC is bypassed and RST immediately goes high. |
| 5-12 | N.C. | No Connection. Must be connected to ground . |
| 13 | GND | Ground |
| 14 | V BAT | Backup Power-Supply Input. When using the device with the V BAT input as the primary power source, this pin should be decoupled using a 0.1μF to 1.0μF low-leakage capacitor. When using the device with the V BAT input as the backup power source, the capacitor is not required. If V BAT is not used, connect to ground. The device is UL recognized to ensure against reverse charging when used with a primary lithium battery. Go to www.maximintegrated.com/qa/info/ul . |
| 15 | SDA | Serial Data Input/Output. This pin is the data input/output for the I 2 C serial interface. This open-drain pin requires an external pullup resistor. The pullup voltage can be up to 5.5V, regardless of the voltage on V CC . |
| 16 | SCL | Serial Clock Input. This pin is the clock input for the I 2 C serial interface and is used to synchronize data movement on the serial interface. Up to 5.5V can be used for this pin, regardless of the voltage on V CC . |
