ISL12024IRTCZ
Description
The ISL12024IRTCZ device is a real-time clock with
clock/calendar, 64-bit unique ID, two polled alarms with
integrated 512x8 EEPROM, oscillator compensation, and
battery backup switch.
The oscillator uses an external, low-cost 32.768kHz crystal.
All compensation and trim components are integrated on the
chip. This eliminates several external discrete components
and a trim capacitor, saving board area and component cost.
The real-time clock keeps track of time with separate
registers for hours, minutes and seconds. The calendar has
separate registers for date, month, year and day-of-week.
The calendar is correct through 2099, with automatic leap
year correction.
The 64-bit unique ID is a random numbers programmed,
verified and locked at the factory and it is only accessible for
reading and cannot be altered by the customer.
The Dual Alarms can be set to any clock/calendar value for a
match. For instance, every minute, every Tuesday, or 5:23
AM on March 21. The alarms can be polled in the Status
Register or can provide a hardware interrupt (IRQ/FOUT
Pin). There is a pulse mode for the alarms allowing for
repetitive alarm functionality.
The IRQ/FOUT pin may be software selected to provide a
frequency output of 1Hz, 4096Hz, or 32,768Hz or inactive.
The device offers a backup power input pin. This VBAT pin
allows the device to be backed up by battery or SuperCap.
The entire ISL12024IRTCZ device is fully operational from
2.7V to 5.5V and the clock/calendar portion of the
ISL12024IRTCZ device remains fully operational down to
1.8V (Standby Power Mode).
The ISL12024IRTCZ device provides 4k bits of EEPROM
with eight modes of BlockLock™ control. The BlockLock™
allows a safe, secure memory for critical user and
configuration data, while allowing a large user storage area.
output signal with the use of a slope controlled pull-down. The
circuit is designed to comply with 400kHz I2C interface speed.
VBAT
This input provides a backup supply voltage to the device.
VBAT supplies power to the device in the event the VDD
supply fails. This pin can be connected to a battery, a Super
Cap or tied to ground if not used.
IRQ/FOUT (Interrupt Output/Frequency Output)
This dual function pin can be used as an interrupt or
frequency output pin. The IRQ/FOUT mode is selected via
the frequency out control bits of the INT register.
• Interrupt Mode. The pin provides an interrupt signal
output. This signal notifies a host processor that an alarm
has occurred and requests action. It is an open drain
active low output.
• Frequency Output Mode. The pin outputs a clock signal
which is related to the crystal frequency. The frequency
output is user selectable and enabled via the I2C bus. It is
an open drain output.
X1, X2
The X1 and X2 pins are the input and output, respectively, of
an inverting amplifier. An external 32.768kHz quartz crystal is
used with the ISL12024IRTCZ to supply a timebase for the
real-time clock. Internal compensation circuitry provides high
accuracy over the operating temperature range from -40°C to
+85°C. This oscillator compensation network can be used to
calibrate the crystal timing accuracy over-temperature either
during manufacturing, or with an external temperature sensor
and microcontroller for active compensation. The X2 pin is
intended to drive a crystal only, and should not drive any
external circuit.

Pin Descriptions
Real-Time Clock Operation
Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL input is used to clock all data into and out of the
device. The input buffer on this pin is always active (not
gated). The pull-up resistor on this pin must use the same
voltage source as VDD.
Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and out
of the device. It has an open drain output and may be wire
ORed with other open drain or open collector outputs. The
input buffer is always active (not gated).
This open drain output requires the use of a pull-up resistor.
The pull-up resistor on this pin must use the same voltage
source as VDD. The output circuitry controls the fall time of the
7
The real-time clock (RTC) uses an external 32.768kHz
quartz crystal to maintain an accurate internal representation
of the second, minute, hour, day, date, month and year. The
RTC has leap-year correction. The clock also corrects for
months having fewer than 31 days and has a bit that controls
24 hour or AM/PM format. When the ISL12024IRTCZ
powers up after the loss of both VDD and VBAT, the clock will
not operate until at least one byte is written to the clock
register.
Reading the Real-Time Clock
The RTC is read by initiating a Read command and
specifying the address corresponding to the register of the
real-time clock. The RTC registers can then be read in a
FN6749.0
August 8, 2008
ISL12024IRTCZ
sequential read mode. Since the clock runs continuously,
and a read takes a finite amount of time, there is the
possibility that the clock could change during the course of a
read operation. In this device, the time is latched by the read
command (falling edge of the clock on the ACK bit prior to
RTC data output) into a separate latch to avoid time changes
during the read operation. The clock continues to run.
Alarms occurring during a read are unaffected by the read
operation.
Writing to the Real-Time Clock
The time and date may be set by writing to the RTC
registers. RTC Register should be written ONLY with Page
Write. To avoid changing the current time by an incomplete
write operation, write to the all 8 bytes in one write operation.
When writing the RTC registers, the new time value is
loaded into a separate buffer at the falling edge of the clock
during the Acknowledge. This new RTC value is loaded into
the RTC Register by a stop bit at the end of a valid write
sequence. An invalid write operation aborts the time update
procedure and the contents of the buffer are discarded. After
a valid write operation, the RTC will reflect the newly loaded
data beginning with the next “one second” clock cycle after
the stop bit is written. The RTC continues to update the time
while an RTC register write is in progress and the RTC
continues to run during any non-volatile write sequences.
Accuracy of the Real-Time Clock
The accuracy of the real-time clock depends on the
accuracy of the quartz crystal that is used as the time base
for the RTC. Since the resonant frequency of a crystal is
temperature dependent, the RTC performance will also be
dependent upon temperature. The frequency deviation of
the crystal is a function of the turnover-temperature of the
crystal from the crystal’s nominal frequency. For example, a
>20ppm frequency deviation translates into an accuracy of
>1 minute per month. These parameters are available from
the crystal manufacturer. Intersil’s RTC family provides
on-chip crystal compensation networks to adjust
load-capacitance to tune oscillator frequency from -34ppm to
+80ppm when using a 12.5pF load crystal. For more detailed
information see the “Application Section” on page 20.
Clock/Control Registers (CCR)
The Control/Clock Registers are located in an area separate
from the EEPROM array, and are only accessible following a
slave byte of “1101111x”, and reads or writes to addresses
[0000h:003Fh]. The clock/control memory map has memory
addresses from 0000h to 003Fh. The defined addresses are
described in Table 1. Writing to and reading from the
undefined addresses are not recommended.
CCR Access
The contents of the CCR can be modified by performing a
byte or a page write operation directly to any address in the
CCR. Prior to writing to the CCR (except the status register),
8
however, the WEL and RWEL bits must be set using a three
step process (see section See “Writing to the Clock/Control
Registers” on page 12.)
The CCR is divided into 6 sections. These are:
1. Alarm 0 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
2. Alarm 1 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
3. Control (5 bytes; non-volatile)
4. Unique ID (8 bytes; non-volatile)
5. Real-Time clock (8 bytes; volatile)
6. Status (1 byte; volatile)
Each register is read and written through buffers. The
non-volatile portion (or the counter portion of the RTC) is
updated only if RWEL is set, and only after a valid write
operation and stop bit. A sequential read or page write
operation provides access to the contents of only one
section of the CCR per operation. Access to another section
requires a new operation. A read or write can begin at any
address in the CCR.
It is not necessary to set the RWEL bit prior to writing the
status register. Section 5 (status register) supports a single
byte read or write only. Continued reads or writes from this
section terminates the operation.
The state of the CCR can be read by performing a random
read at any address in the CCR at any time. This returns the
contents of that register location. Additional registers are
read by performing a sequential read. The read instruction
latches all Clock registers into a buffer, so an update of the
clock does not change the time being read. A sequential
read of the CCR will not result in the output of data from the
memory array. At the end of a read, the master supplies a
stop condition to end the operation and free the bus. After a
read of the CCR, the address remains at the previous
address +1 so the user can execute a current address read
of the CCR and continue reading the next Register.
Real-Time Clock Registers
SC, MN, HR, DT, MO, YR: Clock/Calendar Registers
These registers depict BCD representations of the time. As
such, SC (Seconds) and MN (Minutes) range from 00 to 59,
HR (Hour) is 1 to 12 with an AM or PM indicator (H21 bit) or
0 to 23 (with MIL = 1), DT (Date) is 1 to 31, MO (Month) is 1
to 12, YR (Year) is 0 to 99.
DW: Day of the Week Register
This register provides a day of the week status, and uses
three bits DY2 to DY0 to represent the seven days of the
week. The counter advances in the cycle
0-1-2-3-4-5-6-0-1-2-… The assignment of a numerical value
to a specific day of the week is arbitrary, and may be decided
by the system software designer. The default value is
defined as ‘0’.

24 Hour Time
RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch Volatile
If the MIL bit of the HR register is 1, the RTC uses a 24-hour
format. If the MIL bit is 0, the RTC uses a 12-hour format,
and the H21 bit functions as an AM/PM indicator with a ‘1’
representing PM. The clock defaults to standard time with
H21 = 0.
This bit is a volatile latch that powers up in the LOW
(disabled) state. The RWEL bit must be set to “1” prior to any
writes to the Clock/Control Registers. Writes to RWEL bit do
not cause a non-volatile write cycle, so the device is ready
for the next operation immediately after the stop condition. A
write to the CCR requires both the RWEL and WEL bits to be
set in a specific sequence.
Leap Years
Leap years add the day February 29 and are defined as
those years that are divisible by 4.
WEL: Write Enable Latch - Volatile
Status Register (SR)
The Status Register is located in the CCR memory map at
address 003Fh. This is a volatile register only, and is used to
control the WEL and RWEL write enable latches, read power
status and two alarm bits. This register is separate from both
the array and the Clock/Control Registers (CCR).

The WEL bit controls the access to the CCR during a write
operation. This bit is a volatile latch that powers up in the
LOW (disabled) state. While the WEL bit is LOW, writes to
the CCR address will be ignored, although acknowledgment
is still issued. The WEL bit is set by writing a “1” to the WEL
bit and zeroes to the other bits of the Status Register. Once
set, WEL remains set until either reset to 0 (by writing a “0”
to the WEL bit and zeroes to the other bits of the Status
Register) or until the part powers up again. Writes to WEL bit
do not cause a non-volatile write cycle, so the device is
ready for the next operation immediately after the stop
condition.
RTCF: Real-Time Clock Fail Bit - Volatile
BAT: Battery Supply - Volatile
This bit set to “1” indicates that the device is operating from
VBAT, not VDD. It is a read-only bit and is set/reset by
hardware (ISL12024IRTCZ internally). Once the device
begins operating from VDD, the device sets this bit to “0”.
AL1, AL0: Alarm Bits - Volatile
These bits announce if either alarm 0 or alarm 1 match the
real-time clock. If there is a match, the respective bit is set to
‘1’. The falling edge of the last data bit in a SR Read
operation resets the flags. (Note: Only the AL bits that are
set when an SR read starts will be reset). An alarm bit that is
set by an alarm occurring during an SR read operation will
remain set after the read operation is complete.
9
This bit is set to a ‘1’ after a total power failure. This is a read
only bit that is set internally when the device powers up after
having lost all power to the device. The bit is set regardless
of whether VDD or VBAT is applied first. The loss of only one
of the supplies does not result in setting the RTCF bit. The
first valid write to the RTC after a complete power failure
(writing one byte is sufficient) resets the RTCF bit to ‘0’.
Unused Bits:
Bit 3 in the SR is not used, but must be zero. The Data Byte
output during a SR read will contain a zero in this bit
location.

Alarm Registers (Non-Volatile)
Alarm0 and Alarm1
The alarm register bytes are set up identical to the RTC
register bytes, except that the MSB of each byte functions as
an enable bit (enable = “1”). These enable bits specify which
alarm registers (seconds, minutes, etc.) are used to make
the comparison. Note that there is no alarm byte for year.
The alarm function works as a comparison between the
alarm registers and the RTC registers. As the RTC
advances, the alarm will be triggered once a match occurs
between the alarm registers and the RTC registers. Any one
alarm register, multiple registers, or all registers can be
enabled for a match. See “Device Operation” on page 12
and “Application Section” on page 20 for more information.
Control Registers (Non-Volatile)
The Control Bits and Registers described in the following are
non-volatile.
BL Register
BP2, BP1, BP0 - Block Protect Bits
The Block Protect Bits, BP2, BP1 and BP0, determine which
blocks of the array are write protected. A write to a protected
block of memory is ignored. The block protect bits will
prevent write operations to one of eight segments of the
array. The partitions are described in Table 3.
In this case both Alarms are enabled.
FO1, FO0 - Programmable Frequency Output Bits
These are two output control bits. They select one of three
divisions of the internal oscillator, that is applied to the
IRQ/FOUT output pin. Table 4 shows the selection bits for
this output. When using this function, the Alarm output
function is disabled.FO1 and FO0 are set to “01” for
32.768kHz output at power-up.

INT Register: Interrupt Control and
Frequency Output Register
IM, AL1E, AL0E - Interrupt Control and Status Bits
There are two Interrupt Control bits; Alarm 1 Interrupt Enable
(AL1E) and Alarm 0 Interrupt Enable (AL0E) to specifically
enable or disable the alarm interrupt signal output
(IRQ/FOUT). The interrupts are enabled when either the
AL1E or AL0E or both bits are set to ‘1’ and both the FO1
and FO0 bits are set to 0 (FOUT disabled).
11
The IM bit enables the pulsed interrupt mode. To enter this
mode, the AL0E or AL1E bits are set to “1”, and the IM bit to
“1”. The IRQ/FOUT output will now be pulsed each time an
alarm occurs. This means that once the interrupt mode
alarm is set, it will continue to alarm for each occurring
match of the alarm and present time. This mode is
convenient for hourly or daily hardware interrupts in
microcontroller applications such as security cameras or
utility meter reading.
• DTR. Digital Trimming Register
These registers are non-volatile. The combination of analog
and digital trimming can give up to -64ppm to +110 ppm of
total adjustment.
ATR Register - ATR5, ATR4, ATR3, ATR2, ATR1,
ATR0: Analog Trimming Register
Six analog trimming bits, ATR0 to ATR5, are provided in
order to adjust the on-chip load capacitance value for
frequency compensation of the RTC. Each bit has a different
weight for capacitance adjustment. For example, using a
Citizen CFS-206 crystal with different ATR bit combinations
provides an estimated ppm adjustment range from -34ppm
to +80ppm to the nominal frequency compensation.
The effective on-chip series load capacitance, CLOAD,
ranges from 4.5pF to 20.25pF with a mid-scale value of
12.5pF (default). CLOAD is changed via two digitally
controlled capacitors, CX1 and CX2, connected from the X1
and X2 pins to ground (see Figure 8). The value of CX1 and
CX2 is given Equation 1:
C X = ( 16 ⋅ b5 + 8 ⋅ b4 + 4 ⋅ b3 + 2 ⋅ b2 + 1 ⋅ b1 + 0.5 ⋅ b0 + 9 )pF

The serial bus can be disabled in Battery Backup Mode by
setting this bit to “1”. This will minimize power drain on the

The Power Control bit, BSW, determines the conditions for
switching between VDD and Backup Battery. There are two
options:
• Option 1. Standard/Default Mode: Set “BSW = 0”
For example:
CLOAD(ATR = 00000) = 12.5pF,
CLOAD(ATR = 100000) = 4.5pF, and
CLOAD(ATR = 011111) = 20.25pF.
• Option 2. Legacy Mode: Set “BSW = 1”
See “Power Control Operation” on page 13 for more details.
Also see “I2C Communications During Battery Backup” on
page 23 for important details.
The entire range for the series combination of load
capacitance goes from 4.5pF to 20.25pF in 0.25pF steps.
Note that these are typical values.
DTR Register - DTR2, DTR1, DTR0: Digital
Trimming Register
The digital trimming Bits DTR2, DTR1 and DTR0 adjust the
number of counts per second and average the ppm error to
achieve better accuracy.
DTR2 is a sign bit, where:
DTR2 = 0 means frequency compensation is >0.
DTR2 = 1 means frequency compensation is <0.
DTR1 and DTR0 are scale bits. DTR1 gives 10 ppm
adjustment and DTR0 gives 20 ppm adjustment.
A range from -30ppm to +30ppm can be represented by
using the three DTR bits above.

Unique ID Registers
There are eight register bytes for storing the device ID.
(Address 0020h to 0027h). Each device contains these
bytes to provide a unique 64-bit ID programmed and tested
in the factory before shipment. These registers are
read-only, intended for serialization of end equipment, and
cannot be changed or overwritten.
Device Operation
Writing to the Clock/Control Registers
Changing any of the bits of the clock/control registers
requires the following steps:
1. Write a 02h to the Status Register to set the Write Enable
Latch (WEL). This is a volatile operation, so there is no
delay after the write. (Operation preceded by a start and
ended with a stop).
2. Write a 06h to the Status Register to set both the Register
Write Enable Latch (RWEL) and the WEL bit. This is also
a volatile cycle. The zeros in the data byte are required.
(Operation proceeded by a start and ended with a stop).
Write all eight bytes to the RTC registers, or one byte to the
SR, or one to five bytes to the control registers. This
sequence starts with a start bit, requires a slave byte of
“11011110” and an address within the CCR and is terminated
by a stop bit. A write to the EEPROM registers in the CCR
will initiate a non-volatile write cycle and will take up to 20ms
to complete. A write to the RTC registers (SRAM) will require
much shorter cycle time (t = tBUF). Writes to undefined areas
have no effect. The RWEL bit is reset by the completion of a
FN6749.0
August 8, 2008
ISL12024IRTCZ
write to the CCR, so the sequence must be repeated to
again initiate another change to the CCR contents. If the
sequence is not completed for any reason (by sending an
incorrect number of bits or sending a start instead of a stop,
for example) the RWEL bit is not reset and the device
remains in an active mode. Writing all zeros to the status
register resets both the WEL and RWEL bits. A read
operation occurring between any of the previous operations
will not interrupt the register write operation.
Alarm Operation
Since the alarm works as a comparison between the alarm
registers and the RTC registers, it is ideal for notifying a host
processor of a particular time event and trigger some action
as a result. The host can be notified by either a hardware
interrupt (the IRQ/FOUT pin) or by polling the Status Register
(SR) Alarm bits. These two volatile bits (AL1 for Alarm 1 and
AL0 for Alarm 0), indicate if an alarm has happened. The bits
are set on an alarm condition regardless of whether the
IRQ/FOUT interrupt is enabled. The AL1 and AL0 bits in the
status register are reset by the falling edge of the eighth
clock of status register read.
There are two alarm operation modes: Single Event and
periodic Interrupt Mode:
1. Single Event Mode is enabled by setting the AL0E or
AL1E bit to “1”, the IM bit to “0”, and disabling the
frequency output. This mode permits a one-time match
between the alarm registers and the RTC registers. Once
this match occurs, the AL0 or AL1 bit is set to “1” and the
IRQ/FOUT output will be pulled low and will remain low
until the AL0 or AL1 bit is read, which will automatically
resets it. Both Alarm registers can be set at the same time
to trigger alarms. The IRQ/FOUT output will be set by
either alarm, and will need to be cleared to enable
triggering by a subsequent alarm. Polling the SR will
reveal which alarm has been set.
2. Interrupt Mode (or “Pulsed Interrupt Mode” or PIM) is
enabled by setting the AL0E or AL1E bit to “1” the IM bit
to “1”, and disabling the frequency output. If both AL0E
and AL1E bits are set to 1, then only the AL0E PIM alarm
will function (AL0E overrides AL1E). The IRQ/FOUT
output will now be pulsed each time an alarm occurs. This
means that once the Interrupt Mode alarm is set, it will
continue to alarm for each occurring match of the alarm
and present time. This mode is convenient for hourly or
daily hardware interrupts in microcontroller applications
such as security cameras or utility meter reading.
Interrupt Mode CANNOT be used for general periodic
alarms, however, since a specific time period cannot be
programmed for interrupt, only matches to a specific time
of day. The Interrupt Mode is only stopped by disabling
the IM bit or the Alarm Enable bits.
Writing to the Alarm Registers
The Alarm Registers are non-volatile but require special
attention to insure a proper non-volatile write takes place.
Specifically, byte writes to individual registers are good for all
13
but registers 0006h and 0000Eh, which are the DWA0 and
DWA1 registers, respectively. Those registers will require a
special page write for nonvolatile storage. The
recommended page write sequences are as follows:
1. 16-byte page writes: The best way to write or update the
Alarm Registers is to perform a 16-byte write beginning at
address 0001h (MNA0) and wrapping around and ending
at address 0000h (SCA0). This will insure that
non-volatile storage takes place. This means that the
code must be designed so that the Alarm0 data is written
starting with Minutes register, and then all the Alarm1
data, with the last byte being the Alarm0 Seconds (the
page ends at the Alarm1 Y2k register and then wraps
around to address 0000h).
Alternatively, the 16-byte page write could start with
address 0009h, wrap around and finish with address
0008h. Note that any page write ending at address
0007h or 000Fh (the highest byte in each Alarm) will not
trigger a non-volatile write, so wrapping around or
overlapping to the following Alarm's Seconds register is
advised.
2. Other non-volatile writes: It is possible to do writes of
less than an entire page, but the final byte must always
be addresses 0000h through 0004h or 0008h though
000Ch to trigger a non-volatile write. Writing to those
blocks of 5 bytes sequentially, or individually, will trigger a
non-volatile write. If the DWA0 or DWA1 registers need to
be set, then enough bytes will need to be written to
overlap with the other Alarm register and trigger the
non-volatile write. For Example, if the DWA0 register is
being set, then the code can start with a multiple byte
write beginning at address 0006h, and then write 3 bytes
ending with the SCA1 register as follows:
Addr
0006h
0007h
0008h
Name
DWA0
Y2K0
SCA1
If the Alarm1 is used, SCA1 would need to have the correct
data written.
Power Control Operation
The power control circuit accepts a VDD and a VBAT input.
Many types of batteries can be used with Intersil RTC
products. For example, 3.0V or 3.6V Lithium batteries are
appropriate, and battery sizes are available that can power
an Intersil RTC device for up to 10 years. Another option is
to use a Super Cap for applications where VDD is interrupted
for up to a month. See the “Application Section” on page 20
for more information.
There are two options for setting the change-over conditions
from VDD to Battery Backup Mode. The BSW bit in the PWR

The VDD/VBAT power circuit also contains a glitch detection
circuit to protect from incorrect serial bus writes after a
brownout situation. This circuit disables the serial bus for
about 90ms following the power-up. To trigger the delay, the
VDD must drop below the battery trip point yet stay above
approximately 1.0V (limit of active circuit operation). After
that, the power-up ramp must be slower than 0.25V/ms to
trigger the delay. To be safe, serial interface software may
need to consider the 90ms delay in all power-up routines.

In the Standard Mode, the supply will switch over to the

prevented since the battery backup input will only be used
when the VDD supply is shut off.

To transition from the VDD to VBAT mode, both of the

where VBATHYS ≈ 50mV
- Condition 2:

The ISL12024IRTCZ device will switch from the VBAT to

- Condition 1:
VDD > VBAT + VBATHYS
where VBATHYS ≈ 50mV
- Condition 2:
VDD > VTRIP + VTRIPHYS
where VTRIPHYS ≈ 30mV
There are two discrete situations that are possible when
using Standard Mode: VBAT < VTRIP and VBAT > VTRIP.
These two power control situations are illustrated in
Figures 9 and 10.
FIGURE 10. BATTERY SWITCHOVER WHEN VBAT > VTRIP
OPTION 2 - LEGACY (POWER CONTROL) MODE
(DEFAULT)
The Legacy Mode follows conditions set in X1226 products.
In this mode, switching from VDD to VBAT is simply done by
comparing the voltages and the device operates from
whichever is the higher voltage. Care should be taken when
changing from Normal to Legacy Mode. If the VBAT voltage is
higher than VDD, then the device will enter battery backup
and unless the battery is disconnected or the voltage
decreases, the device will no longer operate from VDD.
To select Option 2, the BSW bit in the Power Register must
be set to “BSW = 1”.
• Normal Mode (VDD) to Battery Backup Mode (VBAT)
To transition from the VDD to VBAT mode, the following
conditions must be met:
VDD < VBAT - VBATHYS
• Battery Backup Mode (VBAT) to Normal Mode (VDD)
The device will switch from the VBAT to VDD mode when
the following condition occurs:
VDD > VBAT +VBATHYS

Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate
successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either
master or slave, will release the bus after transmitting 8 bits.
During the ninth clock cycle, the receiver will pull the SDA

(see Figure 14).

Serial Communication
The device supports the I2C protocol.
Clock and Data
Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL
LOW. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are reserved for
indicating start and stop conditions (see Figure 12).
Start Condition
All commands are preceded by the start condition, which is a
HIGH to LOW transition of SDA when SCL is HIGH. The
device continuously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the
start condition and will not respond to any command until
this condition has been met (see Figure 13).
Stop Condition
All communications must be terminated by a stop condition,
which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA when SCL is
HIGH. The stop condition is also used to place the device
into the Standby Power Mode after a read sequence. A stop
The device will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and if the correct Device
Identifier and Select bits are contained in the Slave Address
Byte. If a write operation is selected, the device will respond
with an acknowledge after the receipt of each subsequent
8-bit word. The device will not acknowledge if the slave
address byte is incorrect.
In the read mode, the device will transmit 8-bits of data,
release the SDA line, then monitor the line for an
acknowledge. If an acknowledge is detected and no stop
condition is generated by the master, the device will continue
to transmit data. The device will terminate further data
transmissions if an acknowledge is not detected. The master
must then issue a stop condition to return the device to
Standby Power Mode and place the device into a known
state.

device select bits with ‘1010111’ or ‘1101111’. Upon a correct
compare, the device outputs an acknowledge on the SDA
line.
Following a start condition, the master must output a Slave
Address Byte. The first four bits of the Slave Address Byte
specify access to either the EEPROM array or to the CCR.
Slave bits ‘1010’ access the EEPROM array. Slave bits
‘1101’ access the CCR.
Following the Slave Byte is a two byte word address. The
word address is either supplied by the master device or
obtained from an internal counter. On power-up, the internal
address counter is set to address 0h, so a current address
read of the EEPROM array starts at address 0. When
required, as part of a random read, the master must supply
the 2 Word Address Bytes as shown in Figure 15.
When shipped from the factory, EEPROM array is
UNDEFINED, and should be programmed by the customer
to a known state.
Bit 3 through Bit 1 of the slave byte specify the device select
bits. These are set to ‘111’.
In a random read operation, the slave byte in the “dummy
write” portion must match the slave byte in the “read”
section. That is if the random read is from the array the slave
byte must be 1010111x in both instances. Similarly, for a
random read of the Clock/Control Registers, the slave byte
must be 1101111x in both places.
The last bit of the Slave Address Byte defines the operation
to be performed. When this R/W bit is a one, then a read
operation is selected. A zero selects a write operation (see
Figure 15.)

Write Operations
Byte Write
For a write operation, the device requires the Slave Address
Byte and the Word Address Bytes. This gives the master
access to any one of the words in the array or CCR.
(Note: Prior to writing to the CCR, the master must write a
02h, then 06h to the status register in two preceding
operations to enable the write operation. See “Writing to the
Clock/Control Registers” on page 12). Upon receipt of each
address byte, the ISL12024IRTCZ responds with an
acknowledge. After receiving both address bytes the
ISL12024IRTCZ awaits the 8 bits of data. After receiving the
8 data bits, the ISL12024IRTCZ again responds with an
acknowledge. The master then terminates the transfer by
generating a stop condition. The ISL12024IRTCZ then
begins an internal write cycle of the data to the nonvolatile
memory. During the internal write cycle, the device inputs
are disabled, so the device will not respond to any requests
from the master. The SDA output is at high impedance. (See
Figure 16).
A write to a protected block of memory is ignored, but will still
receive an acknowledge. At the end of the write command,
the ISL12024IRTCZ will not initiate an internal write cycle,
and will continue to ACK commands.
Byte writes to all of the non-volatile registers are allowed,
except the DWAn registers which require multiple byte writes
or page writes to trigger non-volatile writes. See “Device
Operation” on page 12 for more information.
Page Write
The ISL12024IRTCZ has a page write operation. It is
initiated in the same manner as the byte write operation; but
instead of terminating the write cycle after the first data byte
is transferred, the master can transmit up to 15 more bytes
to the memory array and up to 7 more bytes to the
clock/control registers. The RTC registers require a page
write (8 bytes), individual register writes are not allowed.

After the receipt of each byte, the ISL12024IRTCZ responds
with an acknowledge, and the address is internally
incremented by one. The address pointer remains at the last
address byte written. When the counter reaches the end of
the page, it “rolls over” and goes back to the first address on
the same page. This means that the master can write 16
bytes to a memory array page or 8 bytes to a CCR section
starting at any location on that page. For example, if the
master begins writing at location 10 of the memory and loads
15 bytes, then the first 6 bytes are written to addresses 10
through 15, and the last 6 bytes are written to columns 0
through 5. Afterwards, the address counter would point to
location 6 on the page that was just written. If the master
supplies more than the maximum bytes in a page, then the
previously loaded data is over-written by the new data, one
byte at a time. (see Figure 17). The master terminates the
Data Byte loading by issuing a stop condition, which causes
the ISL12024IRTCZ to begin the non-volatile write cycle. As
with the byte write operation, all inputs are disabled until
completion of the internal write cycle. See Figure 18 for the
address, acknowledge and data transfer sequence.
Stops and Write Modes
Stop conditions that terminate write operations must be sent
by the master after sending at least 1 full data byte and its
associated ACK signal. If a stop is issued in the middle of a
data byte, or before 1 full data byte + ACK is sent, then the
ISL12024IRTCZ resets itself without performing the write.
The contents of the array are not affected.

Acknowledge Polling
Disabling of the inputs during non-volatile write cycles can
be used to take advantage of the 12ms (typ) write cycle time.
Once the stop condition is issued to indicate the end of the
master’s byte load operation, the ISL12024IRTCZ initiates
the internal non-volatile write cycle. Acknowledge polling can
begin immediately. To do this, the master issues a start
condition followed by the Memory Array Slave Address Byte
for a write or read operation (AEh or AFh). If the
ISL12024IRTCZ is still busy with the non-volatile write cycle
then no ACK will be returned. When the ISL12024IRTCZ has
completed the write operation, an ACK is returned and the
host can proceed with the read or write operation. See the
flow chart in Figure 20. Note: Do not use the CCR Slave byte
(DEh or DFh) for Acknowledge Polling.
a current address read immediately after the power-on reset
can download the entire contents of memory starting at the
first location. Upon receipt of the Slave Address Byte with
the R/W bit set to one, the ISL12024IRTCZ issues an
acknowledge, then transmits 8 data bits. The master
terminates the read operation by not responding with an
acknowledge during the ninth clock and issuing a stop
condition. See Figure 19 for the address, acknowledge, and

It should be noted that the ninth clock cycle of the read
operation is not a “don’t care.” To terminate a read operation,
the master must either issue a stop condition during the
ninth cycle or hold SDA HIGH during the ninth clock cycle
and then issue a stop condition.
The data output is sequential, with the data from address n
followed by the data from address n + 1. The address
counter for read operations increments through all page and
column addresses, allowing the entire memory contents to
be serially read during one operation. At the end of the
address space the counter “rolls over” to the start of the
address space and the ISL12024IRTCZ continues to output
data for each acknowledge received. See Figure 22 for the

Application Section
Crystal Oscillator and Temperature Compensation
Intersil has now integrated the oscillator compensation
circuity on-chip, to eliminate the need for external
components and adjust for crystal drift over-temperature and
enable very high accuracy time keeping (<5ppm drift).
The Intersil RTC family uses an oscillator circuit with on-chip
crystal compensation network, including adjustable
load-capacitance. The only external component required is
the crystal. The compensation network is optimized for
operation with certain crystal parameters which are common
in many of the surface mount or tuning-fork crystals available
today. Table 6 summarizes these parameters.
Table 7 contains some crystal manufacturers and part
numbers that meet the requirements for the Intersil RTC
products.
The turnover-temperature in Table 6 describes the
temperature where the apex of the of the drift vs temperature
curve occurs. This curve is parabolic with the drift increasing
as (T-T0)2. For an Epson MC-405 device, for example, the
turnover-temperature is typically +25°C, and a peak drift of
>110ppm occurs at the temperature extremes of -40 and
+85°C. It is possible to address this variable drift by adjusting
the load capacitance of the crystal, which will result in
predictable change to the crystal frequency. The Intersil RTC
family allows this adjustment over-temperature since the
devices include on-chip load capacitor trimming. This control
is handled by the Analog Trimming Register, or ATR, which
has 6-bits of control. The load capacitance range covered by
the ATR circuit is approximately 3.25pF to 18.75pF, in
0.25pF increments. Note that actual capacitance would also
include about 2pF of package related capacitance. In-circuit
tests with commercially available crystals demonstrate that
this range of capacitance allows frequency control from
+80ppm to -34ppm, using a 12.5pF load crystal.
In addition to the analog compensation afforded by the
adjustable load capacitance, a digital compensation feature
is available for the Intersil RTC family. There are 3-bits
known as the Digital Trimming Register or DTR, and they
operate by adding or skipping pulses in the clock signal. The
range provided is ±30ppm in increments of 10ppm. The
default setting is 0ppm. The DTR control can be used for
coarse adjustments of frequency drift over-temperature or
for crystal initial accuracy correction.
A final application for the ATR control is in-circuit calibration
for high accuracy applications, along with a temperature
sensor chip. Once the RTC circuit is powered up with battery
backup, the IRQ/FOUT output is set at 32.768kHz and
frequency drift is measured. The ATR control is then
adjusted to a setting which minimizes drift. Once adjusted at
a particular temperature, it is possible to adjust at other
discrete temperatures for minimal overall drift, and store the
resulting settings in the EEPROM. Extremely low overall
temperature drift is possible with this method. The Intersil
evaluation board contains the circuitry necessary to
implement this control.

Layout Considerations
The crystal input at X1 has a very high impedance and will
pick up high frequency signals from other circuits on the
board. Since the X2 pin is tied to the other side of the crystal,
it is also a sensitive node. These signals can couple into the
oscillator circuit and produce double clocking or
mis-clocking, seriously affecting the accuracy of the RTC.
Care needs to be taken in layout of the RTC circuit to avoid
noise pickup. Figure 23 is a suggested layout for the 8 Ld
SOIC package.
to the X1 or X2 pins and cause double-clocking. The layout
in Figure 23 minimizes this by running the IRQ/FOUT output
away from the X1 and X2 pins. Also, reducing the switching
current at this pin by careful selection of the pull-up resistor
value will reduce noise. Intersil suggests a minimum value of
5.1kΩ for 32.768kHz, and higher values (up to 20kΩ) for
lower frequency IRQ/FOUT outputs.
For other RTC products, the same rules stated above should
be observed, but adjusted slightly since the packages and
pinouts are different.
Oscillator Measurements
FIGURE 23. SUGGESTED LAYOUT FOR INTERSIL RTC IN 8 Ld
SOIC PACKAGE
The X1 and X2 connections to the crystal are to be kept as
short as possible. A thick ground trace around the crystal is
advised to minimize noise intrusion, but ground near the X1
and X2 pins should be avoided as it will add to the load
capacitance at those pins. Keep in mind these guidelines for
other PCB layers in the vicinity of the RTC device. A small
decoupling capacitor at the VDD pin of the chip is mandatory,
with a solid connection to ground.
The ISL12024IRTCZ product has a special consideration.
The IRQ/FOUT pin on the 8 Ld TDFN package is located
next to the X2 pin. When this pin is used as a frequency
output (IRQ/FOUT) and is set to 32.768kHz noise can couple
21
When a proper crystal is selected and the layout guidelines
above are observed, the oscillator should start-up in most
circuits in less than one second. Some circuits may take
slightly longer, but startup should definitely occur in less than
5 seconds. When testing RTC circuits, the most common
impulse is to apply a scope probe to the circuit at the X2 pin
(oscillator output) and observe the waveform. DO NOT DO
THIS! Although in some cases you may see a usable
waveform, due to the parasitics (usually 10pF to ground)
applied with the scope probe, there will be no useful
information in that waveform other than the fact that the
circuit is oscillating. The X2 output is sensitive to capacitive
impedance so the voltage levels and the frequency will be
affected by the parasitic elements in the scope probe.
Applying a scope probe can possibly cause a faulty oscillator
to start-up, hiding other issues (although in the Intersil RTCs,
the internal circuitry assures startup when using the proper
crystal and layout).
The best way to analyze the RTC circuit is to power it up and
read the real-time clock as time advances, or if the chip has
the IRQ/FOUT output, look at the output of that pin on an
oscilloscope (after enabling it with the control register, and
using a pull-up resistor for an open-drain output).
Alternatively, the ISL12024IRTCZ device has an IRQ/FOUT
output which can be checked by setting an alarm for each
minute. Using the pulse interrupt mode setting, the once-perminute interrupt functions as an indication of proper
oscillation.

Backup Battery Operation
Many types of batteries can be used with the Intersil RTC
products. 3.0V or 3.6V Lithium batteries are appropriate, and
sizes are available that can power a Intersil RTC device for
up to 10 years. Another option is to use a super capacitor for
applications where VDD may disappear intermittently for
short periods of time. Depending on the value of
superconductor used, backup time can last from a few days
to two weeks (with >1F). A simple silicon or Schottky barrier
diode can be used in series with VDD to charge the
superconductor, which is connected to the VBAT pin. Try to
use Schottky diodes with very low leakages, <1µA desirable.
Do not use the diode to charge a battery (especially lithium
batteries!)
There are two possible modes for battery backup operation;
Standard and Legacy Mode. In Standard Mode, there are no
operational concerns when switching over to battery backup
since all other devices functions are disabled. Battery drain
is minimal in Standard Mode, and return to Normal VDD
powered operations is predictable. In Legacy Mode, the
VBAT pin can power the chip if the voltage is above VDD and
less than VTRIP. In this mode, it is possible to generate alarm
and communicate with the device, unless SBI = 1, but the
supply current drain is much higher than the Standard Mode
and backup time is reduced. In this case if alarms are used
in backup mode, the IRQ/FOUT pull-up resistor must be
connected to VBAT voltage source. During initial power-up
the default mode is the Standard Mode.

Enable Alarm
After these registers are set, an alarm will be generated when
the RTC advances to exactly 11:30am on January 1 (after
seconds changes from 59 to 00) by setting the AL0 bit in the
status register to “1” and also bringing the IRQ/FOUT output
low.
EXAMPLE 2

ISL12024IRTCZ
Once the registers are set, the following waveform will be
seen at IRQ/FOUT:
also powered by the battery, then the ISL12024IRTCZ can
communicate in Battery Backup Mode.
• Mode B - In this mode selection, bits indicate Legacy
Mode switchover combined with I2C operation in Battery
Backup Mode. When the VDD voltage drops below VBAT,
the device will enter Battery Backup Mode. If the
microcontroller and bus pull-ups are also powered by the
battery, then the ISL12024IRTCZ can communicate in
Battery Backup Mode. This mode places the
ISL12024IRTCZ device in the same operating mode as
the X1226 legacy device.
• Mode C - This mode combines Standard Mode battery
switchover with no I2C operation in Battery Backup Mode.
When the VDD voltage drops below the lower of VTRIP or
VBAT, then the device will enter Battery Backup Mode and
the I2C interface will be disabled, minimizing VBAT current
drain.
RTC AND ALARM REGISTERS ARE BOTH 30s
60s
Note that the status register AL0 bit will be set each time the
alarm is triggered, but does not need to be read or cleared.
I2C Communications During Battery Backup
Operation in Battery Backup Mode is affected by the BSW
and SBIB bits as described earlier. These bits allow flexible
operation of the serial bus and EEPROM in Battery Backup
Mode, but certain operational details need to be clear before
utilizing the different modes. Table 8 describes four different
modes possible with using the BSW and SBIB bits, and how
they affect the serial interface and battery backup operation.
• Mode D - This mode combines Legacy Mode battery
switchover with no I2C operation in Battery Backup Mode.
When the VDD voltage drops below VBAT, the device will
enter Battery Backup Mode and the I2C interface will be
disabled, minimizing VBAT current drain.
Note that the IRQ/FOUT open drain output pin is active in
battery backup for all modes, allowing clocking of devices
while in Battery Backup Mode. The pull-up on the pin will
need to go to VBAT, and thus battery mode current draw will
increase accordingly.
• Mode A - In this mode, selection bits indicate a Standard
Mode switchover combined with I2C operation in Battery
Backup Mode. When the VDD voltage drops below the
lower of VTRIP or VBAT, then the device will enter Battery
Backup Mode. If the microcontroller and bus pull-ups are
