8. Functional description
The PCA21125 contains 16 8-bit registers with an auto-incrementing address register, an
on-chip 32.768 kHz oscillator with one integrated capacitor, a frequency divider which
provides the source clock for the RTC, a programmable clock output, and a 6 MHz
SPI-bus.
All 16 registers are designed as addressable 8-bit parallel registers although not all bits
are implemented:
• The first two registers at addresses 00h and 01h (Control_1 and Control_2) are used
as control and status registers.
• Registers at addresses 02h to 08h (Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weekdays,
Months, Years) are used as counters for the clock function. Seconds, minutes, hours,
days, months, and years are all coded in Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) format. When
one of the RTC registers is read the contents of all counters are frozen. Therefore,
faulty reading of time and date during a carry condition is prevented.
• Registers at addresses 09h to 0Ch (Minute_alarm, Hour_alarm, Day_alarm, and
Weekday_alarm) define the alarm condition.
• The register at address 0Dh (CLKOUT_control) defines the clock output mode.
• Registers at addresses 0Eh and 0Fh (Timer_control and Countdown_timer) are used
for the countdown timer function. The countdown timer has four selectable source
clocks allowing for countdown periods in the range from less than 1 ms to more than
4 hours (see Table 29). There are also two pre-defined timers which can be used to
generate an interrupt once per second or once per minute. These are defined in
register Control_2 (01h).

8.3 Time and date registers
The majority of these registers are coded in the Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) format.
BCD is used to simplify application use. An example is shown for register Seconds in
Table 8.
Loading these registers with values outside of the given range will result in unpredictable
time and date generation (see Figure 3 “Data flow of the time function”).

Data flow of the time function
During read/write operations, the time counting circuits (memory locations 02h through
08h) are blocked.
This prevents
• Faulty reading of the clock and calendar during a carry condition
• Incrementing the time registers during the read cycle
After this read/write access is completed, the time circuit is released again and any
pending request to increment the time counters that occurred during the read/write access
is serviced. A maximum of 1 request can be stored; therefore, all accesses must be
completed within 1 second (see Figure 4).

Access time for read/write operations
As a consequence of this method, it is very important to make a read or write access in
one go, that is, setting or reading seconds through to years should be made in one single
access. Failing to comply with this method could result in the time becoming corrupted.

As an example, if the time (seconds through to hours) is set in one access and then in a
second access the date is set, it is possible that the time may increment between the two
accesses. A similar problem exists when reading. A roll over may occur between reads
thus giving the minutes from one moment and the hours from the next. Therefore it is
advised to read all time and date registers in one access.
8.4 Alarm registers
When one or several alarm registers are loaded with a valid minute, hour, day, or weekday
value and its corresponding alarm enable bit (AE_x) is logic 0, then that information is
compared with the current minute, hour, day, and weekday value.

By clearing the MSB, AE_x (Alarm Enable), of one or more of the alarm registers the
corresponding alarm condition(s) are active. When an alarm occurs, AF (register
Control_2, see Table 6) is set logic 1. The asserted AF can be used to generate an
interrupt (INT). The AF is cleared using the interface.

The registers at addresses 09h through 0Ch contain alarm information. When one or
more of these registers is loaded with minute, hour, day, or weekday, and its
corresponding Alarm Enable bit (AE_x) is logic 0, then that information is compared with
the current minute, hour, day, and weekday. When all enabled comparisons first match,
the Alarm Flag (AF) is set logic 1.
The generation of interrupts from the alarm function is controlled via bit AIE (register
Control_2, see Table 6). If bit AIE is enabled, the INT pin follows the condition of bit AF. AF
will remain set until cleared by the interface. Once AF has been cleared, it will only be set
again when the time increments to match the alarm condition once more. Alarm registers
which have their AE_x bit logic 1 are ignored.
Generation of interrupts from the alarm function is described in Section 8.7.3.
Figure 6, Table 21 and Table 22 show an example for clearing bit AF, but leaving bit MSF
and bit TF unaffected. The flags are cleared by a write command, therefore bits 7, 6, 4, 1
and 0 must be written with their previous values. Repeatedly re-writing these bits has no
influence on the functional behavior.

Alarm flag timing
To prevent the timer flags being overwritten while clearing bit AF, logic AND is performed
during a write access. A flag is cleared by writing logic 0 whilst a flag is not cleared by
writing logic 1. Writing logic 1 will result in the flag value remaining unchanged.

8.5 Register CLKOUT_control and clock output
A programmable square wave is available at pin CLKOUT. Operation is controlled by
control bits COF[2:0] in register CLKOUT_control (0Dh); see Table 23. Frequencies of
32.768 kHz (default) down to 1 Hz can be generated for use as a system clock,
microcontroller clock, input to a charge pump, or for calibration of the oscillator.

Pin CLKOUT is an open-drain output and enabled at power-on. When disabled the output
is LOW.
The duty cycle of the selected clock is not controlled, but due to the nature of the clock
generation, all clock frequencies, except 32.768 kHz, have a duty cycle of 50 : 50.
The stop function can also affect the CLKOUT signal, depending on the selected
frequency. When STOP is active, the CLKOUT pin will generate a continuous LOW for
those frequencies that can be stopped. For more details, see Section 8.9.

8.6 Timer registers
The countdown timer has four selectable source clocks allowing for countdown periods in
the range from less than 1 ms to more than 4 hours (see Table 29). There are also two
pre-defined timers which can be used to generate an interrupt once per second or once
per minute.
Registers Control_2 (01h), Timer_control (0Eh), and Countdown_timer (0Fh) are used to
control the timer function and output.

8.6.1 Second and minute interrupt
The second and minute interrupts (bits SI and MI) are pre-defined timers for generating
periodic interrupts. The timers can be enabled independently of one another, however a
minute interrupt enabled on top of a second interrupt will not be distinguishable since it will
occur at the same time; see Figure 7.
The minute and second flag (MSF) is set logic 1 when either the seconds or the minutes
counter increments according to the currently enabled interrupt. The flag can be read and
cleared by the interface. The status of bit MSF does not affect the INT pulse generation. If
the MSF flag is not cleared prior to the next coming interrupt period, an INT pulse will still
be generated.

The purpose of the flag is to allow the controlling system to interrogate the PCA21125 and
identify the source of the interrupt such as the minute/second or countdown timer.
8.6.2 Countdown timer function
The 8-bit countdown timer at address 0Fh is controlled by the timer control register at
address 0Eh. The timer control register determines one of 4 source clock frequencies for
the timer (4.096 kHz, 64 Hz, 1 Hz, or 1⁄60 Hz) and enables or disables the timer.

Remark: Note that all timings which are generated from the 32.768 kHz oscillator are
based on the assumption that there is 0 ppm deviation. Deviation in oscillator frequency
will result in a corresponding deviation in timings. This is not applicable to interface timing.

The timer counts down from a software-loaded 8-bit binary value n. Loading the counter
with 0 effectively stops the timer. Values from 1 to 255 are valid. When the counter
reaches 1, the countdown timer flag (bit TF in register Control_2, see Table 6) will be set
and the counter automatically re-loads and starts the next timer period. Reading the timer
will return the current value of the countdown counter; see Figure 8.

In the example it is assumed that the timer flag is cleared before the next countdown period expires
and that the INT is set to pulsed mode.
Fig 8.
General countdown timer behavior
If a new value of n is written before the end of the current timer period, then this value will
take immediate effect. It is not recommended to change n without first disabling the
counter (by setting bit TE = 0). The update of n is asynchronous with the timer clock,
therefore changing it without setting bit TE = 0 will result in a corrupted value loaded into
the countdown counter which results in an undetermined countdown period for the first
period. The countdown value n will however be correctly stored and correctly loaded on
subsequent timer periods.
When the countdown timer flag is set, an interrupt signal on INT will be generated,
provided that this mode is enabled. See Section 8.7.2 for details on how the interrupt can
be controlled.
When starting the timer for the first time, the first period will have an uncertainty which is a
result of the enable instruction being generated from the interface clock which is
asynchronous with the timer source clock. Subsequent timer periods will have no such
delay. The amount of delay for the first timer period will depend on the chosen source
clock; see Table 30.

SPI-bus Real-Time Clock and calendar
At the end of every countdown, the timer sets the countdown timer flag (bit TF). Bit TF can
only be cleared by using the interface. The asserted bit TF can be used to generate an
interrupt (INT). The interrupt can be generated as a pulsed signal every countdown period
or as a permanently active signal which follows the condition of bit TF. Bit TI_TP is used to
control this mode selection and the interrupt output can be disabled with bit TIE.
For accurate read back of the count down value, it is recommended to read the register
twice and check for consistent results, since it is not possible to freeze the countdown
timer counter during read back.
8.6.3 Timer flags
When a minute or second interrupt occurs, bit MSF (register Control_2, see Table 6) is set
logic 1. Similarly, at the end of a timer countdown, bit TF is set logic 1. These bits maintain
their value until overwritten by using the interface. If both countdown timer and
minute/second interrupts are required in the application, the source of the interrupt can be
determined by reading these bits. To prevent one flag being overwritten while clearing
another, a logic AND is performed during a write access. A flag is cleared by writing
logic 0 whilst a flag is not cleared by writing logic 1. Writing logic 1 will result in the flag
value remaining unchanged.
Three examples are given for clearing the flags. Flags MSF and TF are cleared by a write
command, therefore bits 7, 6, 4, 1, and 0 must be written with their previous values.
Repeatedly re-writing these bits has no influence on the functional behavior.

Clearing the alarm flag (bit AF) operates in exactly the same way; see Section 8.4.5.
8.7 Interrupt output
An active LOW interrupt signal is available at pin INT. Operation is controlled via the bits
of register Control_2. Interrupts can be sourced from three places: second/minute timer,
countdown timer, and alarm function.

Interrupt scheme
Remark: Note that the interrupts from the three groups are wired-OR, meaning they will
mask one another; see Figure 9.
8.7.1 Minute and second interrupts
The pulse generator for the minute/second interrupt operates from an internal 64 Hz clock
and consequently generates a pulse of 1⁄64 second duration.
If the MSF flag is clear before the end of the INT pulse, then the INT pulse is shortened.
This allows the source of a system interrupt to be cleared immediately it is serviced, i.e.,
the system does not have to wait for the completion of the pulse before continuing; see
Figure 10. Instructions for clearing MSF are given in Section 8.6.3.

The timing shown for clearing bit MSF in Figure 10 is also valid for the non-pulsed
interrupt mode, i.e., when bit TI_TP = 0, where the pulse can be shortened by setting both
bits MI and SI logic 0.
8.7.2 Countdown timer interrupts
Generation of interrupts from the countdown timer is controlled via bit TIE (register
Control_2, see Table 6).
The pulse generator for the countdown timer interrupt also uses an internal clock which is
dependent on the selected source clock for the countdown timer and on the countdown
value n. As a consequence, the width of the interrupt pulse varies; see Table 35.

If the TF flag is cleared before the end of the INT pulse, then the INT pulse is shortened.
This allows the source of a system interrupt to be cleared immediately it is serviced, i.e.,

Figure 11. Instructions for clearing TF are given in Section 8.6.3.

8.7.3 Alarm interrupts
Generation of interrupts from the alarm function is controlled via bit AIE (register
Control_2, see Table 6). If bit AIE is enabled, the INT pin follows the status of bit AF.
Clearing bit AF will immediately clear INT. No pulse generation is possible for alarm
interrupts; see Figure 12.

8.8 External clock test mode
A test mode is available which allows for on-board testing. In this mode it is possible to set
up test conditions and control the operation of the RTC.
The test mode is entered by setting the EXT_TEST bit in register Control_1 (see Table 5).
The CLKOUT pin then becomes an input. The test mode replaces the internal signal with
the signal applied to pin CLKOUT.

PCA21125
NXP Semiconductors
SPI-bus Real-Time Clock and calendar
The signal applied to pin CLKOUT should have a minimum pulse width of 300 ns and a
maximum period of 1 000 ns. The internal clock, now sourced from pin CLKOUT, is divided
down to 1 Hz by a 26 divide chain called a prescaler; see Section 8.9. The prescaler can
be set into a known state by using the STOP bit. When the STOP bit is set, the prescaler
is reset to 0. (STOP must be cleared before the prescaler can operate again.)
From a stop condition, the first 1 second increment will take place after 32 positive edges
on pin CLKOUT. Thereafter, every 64 positive edges will cause a 1 second increment.
Remark: Entry into test mode is not synchronized to the internal 64 Hz clock. When
entering the test mode, no assumption as to the state of the prescaler can be made.
Operation example:
1. Set EXT_TEST test mode (register Control_1, bit EXT_TEST = 1).
2. Set STOP (register Control_1, bit STOP = 1).
3. Clear STOP (register Control_1, bit STOP = 0).
4. Set time registers to desired value.
5. Apply 32 clock pulses to pin CLKOUT.
6. Read time registers to see the first change.
7. Apply 64 clock pulses to pin CLKOUT.
8. Read time registers to see the second change.
Repeat steps 7 and 8 for additional increments.
8.9 STOP bit function
The STOP bit function (register Control_1, see Table 5) allows the accurate starting of the
time circuits. The STOP bit function will cause the upper part of the prescaler (F2 to F14) to
be held at reset, thus no 1 Hz ticks will be generated. The time circuits can then be set
and will not increment until STOP is released; see Figure 13.

STOP will not affect the output of 32.768 kHz, 16.384 kHz, or 8.192 kHz; see Section 8.5.
The lower two stages of the prescaler (F0 and F1) are not reset and because the SPI-bus
is asynchronous to the crystal oscillator, the accuracy of re-starting the time circuits will be
between 0 and one 8.192 kHz cycle; see Figure 14. The first increment of the time circuits
is between 0.499 888 s and 0.500 000 s after stop is released. The uncertainty is caused
by prescaler bits F0 and F1 not being reset; see Table 36.

After reset, the following mode is entered:
• 32.768 kHz on pin CLKOUT active
• POR override available to be set
• 24 hour mode is selected
The SPI-bus is initialized whenever the chip enable pin CE is inactive (LOW).
8.10.1 POR override
The Power-On Reset (POR) duration is directly related to the crystal oscillator start-up
time. Due to the long start-up times experienced by these types of circuits, a mechanism
has been built in to disable the POR and hence speed up the on-board test of the device.

The setting of this mode requires that bit POR_OVRD (register Control_1, see Table 5) be
set logic 1 and that the signals at the SPI-bus pins SDI and CE are toggled as illustrated in
Figure 17. All timings are required minimums.
Once the override mode has been entered, the device immediately stops being reset and
set-up operation can commence, i.e., entry into the external clock test mode via the
SPI-bus access. The override mode can be cleared by writing logic 0 to bit POR_OVRD.
Bit POR_OVRD must be set logic 1 before a re-entry into the override mode is possible.
Setting bit POR_OVRD logic 0 during normal operation has no effect except to prevent
accidental entry into the POR override mode. This is the recommended setting.

Data transfer to and from the device is made via a 3-line SPI-bus; see Table 38.

The transmission is initiated by an active HIGH chip enable signal CE and terminated by
an inactive LOW signal. The first byte transmitted is the command byte (see Table 39 and
Figure 20). Subsequent bytes will be either data to be written or data to be read. Data is
captured on the rising edge of the clock and transferred internally on the falling edge.
The command byte defines the address of the first register to be accessed and the
read/write mode. The address counter will auto increment after every access and will
reset to zero after the last valid register is accessed. The read/write bit (R/W) defines if the
following bytes will be read or write information.

8.11.1 Interface watchdog timer
During read/write operations, the time counting circuits are frozen. To prevent a situation
where the accessing device becomes locked and does not clear the interface by setting
pin CE LOW, the PCA21125 has a built in watchdog timer. Should the interface be active
for more than 1 s from the time a valid subaddress is transmitted, then the PCA21125 will
automatically clear the interface and allow the time counting circuits to continue counting.
CE must return LOW once more before a new data transfer can be executed.

The watchdog is implemented to prevent the excessive loss of time due to interface
access failure, e.g., if main power is removed from a battery backed-up system during an
interface access.
Each time the watchdog period is exceeded, 1 s will be lost from the time counters. The
watchdog will trigger between 1 s and 2 s after receiving a valid subaddress.

The 1 farad capacitor is used as a standby and back-up supply. With the RTC in its minimum power
configuration, i.e., timer off and CLKOUT off, the RTC can operate for several weeks.
Fig 26. Application diagram
13.2 Quartz frequency adjustment
1. Method 1: fixed OSCI capacitor
A fixed capacitor can be used whose value can be determined by evaluating the
average capacitance necessary for the application layout; see Figure 26. The
frequency is best measured via the 32.768 kHz signal at pin CLKOUT available after
power-on. The frequency tolerance depends on the quartz crystal tolerance, the
capacitor tolerance and the device-to-device tolerance (on average ±5 × 10−6). An
average deviation of ±5 minutes per year can easily be achieved.
2. Method 2: OSCI trimmer
Fast setting of a trimmer is possible using the 32.768 kHz signal at pin CLKOUT
available after power-on.
3. Method 3: OSCO output
Direct measurement of OSCO output (accounting for test probe capacitance).

15. Handling information
All input and output pins are protected against ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) under
normal handling. When handling Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) devices ensure that
all normal precautions are taken as described in JESD625-A, IEC 61340-5 or equivalent
standards.
16. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”.
16.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
16.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
• Through-hole components
• Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair

• Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
• Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities
16.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 28) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
• Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
• Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 43 and 44

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 28.
