FN6450.0
Low Power RTC with VDD Battery Backed
SRAM and Embedded Temp
Compensation ±5ppm with Auto Day Light
Saving
Features
The ISL12020 device is a low power real time clock with an
embedded Temp sensor for oscillator compensation,
clock/calendar, power fail, low battery monitor, brown out
indicator, single periodic or polled alarms, intelligent battery
backup switching and 128 bytes of battery-backed user
SRAM.
• On-chip Oscillator Compensation Over the Operating
Temp Range
- ±5ppm over -20°C to +70°C
The oscillator uses an external, low-cost 32.768kHz crystal.
The real time clock tracks time with separate registers for
hours, minutes, and seconds. The device has calendar
registers for date, month, year and day of the week. The
calendar is accurate through 2099, with automatic leap year
correction.
Daylight Savings time adjustment is done automatically,
using parameters entered by the user. Power fail and battery
monitors offer user-selectable trip levels. A time stamp
function records the time and date of switchover from VDD to
battery power, and also from battery to VDD power.

FIGURE 1. STANDARD OUTPUT LOAD FOR TESTING THE
DEVICE WITH VDD = 5.0V
General Description
The ISL12020 devices are low power real time clocks
(RTCs) with embedded temperature sensors. They contain
crystal frequency compensation circuitry over the operating
temperature range, clock/calendar, power fail and low
battery monitors, brown out indicator with separate
(LVRSET) reset pin (ISL12021 only), 1 periodic or polled
alarm, intelligent battery backup switching and 128 Bytes of
battery-backed user SRAM.
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 device to supply a timebase for the real time
clock. Internal compensation circuitry with internal
temperature sensor provides frequency corrections for
selected popular crystals to ±5ppm over the operating
temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. (See “Application
Section” on page 22 for recommended crystal). ISL12020
allows the user to input via I2C serial bus the temperature
variation profile of crystals not listed in the “Application
Section” on page 22. This oscillator compensation network
can also be used to calibrate the initial crystal timing
accuracy at room temperature. The device can also be
driven directly from a 32.768kHz source at pin X1.
X1
X2
The oscillator uses an external, low cost 32.768kHz crystal.
The real time clock tracks time with separate registers for
hours, minutes and seconds. The device has calendar
registers for date, month, year and day of the week. The
calendar is accurate through 2099, with automatic leap year
correction. In addition, both the ISL12020 could be
programmed for automatic Daylight Saving Time (DST)
adjustment by entering local DST information.
VBAT
The ISL1202x’s alarm can be set to any clock/calendar value
for a match. For example, every minute, every Tuesday or at
5:23 AM on March 21. The alarm status is available by
checking the Status Register, or the device can be
configured to provide a hardware interrupt via the IRQ pin.
There is a repeat mode for the alarm allowing a periodic
interrupt every minute, every hour, every day, etc.
IRQ/FOUT (Interrupt Output/Frequency Output)
The device also offers a backup power input pin. This VBAT
pin allows the device to be backed up by battery or Super
Cap with automatic switchover from VDD to VBAT. The
ISL12020 devices are specified for VDD = 2.7V to 5.5V and
the clock/calendar portion of the device remains fully
operational in battery backup mode down to 1.8V (Standby
Mode). The VBAT level is monitored and reported against
preselected levels. The first report is registered when the
VBAT level falls below 85% of nominal level, the second level
is set for 75%. Battery levels are stored in VBATM registers.
The ISL12020 offers a “Brown Out” alarm once the VDD
falls below a pre-selected trip level. In the ISL12020, this
allows system Micro to save vital information to memory
before complete power loss. There are six VDD levels that
could be selected for initiation of brown out alarm.
7
FIGURE 2. RECOMMENDED CRYSTAL CONNECTION
This input provides a backup supply voltage to the device.
VBAT supplies power to the device in the event that the VDD
supply fails. This pin can be connected to a battery, a Super
Capacitor or tied to ground if not used. See the Battery
Monitor parameter in the DC Operating Characteristics-RTC
on page 3.
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 control/status 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.
Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL input is used to clock all serial data into and out of
the device. The input buffer on this pin is always active (not
gated). It is disabled when the backup power supply on the
VBAT pin is activated to minimize power consumption.
FN6450.0
March 29, 2007
ISL12020
Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bi-directional pin used to transfer data into and out
of the device. It has an open drain output and may be ORed
with other open drain or open collector outputs. The input
buffer is always active (not gated) in normal mode.
An open drain output requires the use of a pull-up resistor.
The output circuitry controls the fall time of the output signal
with the use of a slope controlled pull-down. The circuit is
designed for 400kHz I2C interface speeds. It is disabled
when the backup power supply on the VBAT pin is activated.

Functional Description

Power Control Operation
VBAT
3.0V
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
the ISL1202x for up to 10 years. Another option is to use a
Super Capacitor for applications where VDD is interrupted
for up to a month. See the “Application Section” on page 22
for more information.
VTRIP
2.2V
Normal Mode (VDD) to Battery Backup Mode
(VBAT)
To transition from the VDD to VBAT mode, both of the
following conditions must be met:
VTRIP
VTRIP + VTRIPHYS
FIGURE 4. BATTERY SWITCHOVER WHEN VBAT > VTRIP
The I2C bus is deactivated in battery backup mode to reduce
power consumption. Aside from this, all RTC functions are
operational during battery backup mode. Except for SCL and
SDA, all the inputs and outputs of the ISL12020 are active
during battery backup mode unless disabled via the control
register.
The device Time Stamps the switchover from VDD to VBAT
and VBAT to VDD, and the time is stored in TSV2B and
TSB2V registers respectively. If multiple VDD power down
sequences occur before status is read, the earliest VDD to
VBAT power down time is stored and the most recent VBAT
to VDD time is stored.
Condition 1:
VDD < VBAT - VBATHYS
where VBATHYS ≈ 50mV
Condition 2:
VDD < VTRIP
where VTRIP ≈ 2.2V
Battery Backup Mode (VBAT) to Normal Mode
(VDD)
The ISL12020 device will switch from the VBAT to VDD mode
when one of the following conditions occurs:
Condition 1:
VDD > VBAT + VBATHYS
where VBATHYS ≈ 50mV
Temperature conversion and compensation can be enabled
in battery backup mode. Bit BTSE in the BETA register
controls this operation as described in that register section.
Power Failure Detection
Both the ISL12020 provide a Real Time Clock Failure Bit
(RTCF) to detect total power failure. It allows users to
determine if the device has powered up after having lost all
power to the device (both VDD and VBAT).
Brownout Detection
Condition 2:
VDD > VTRIP + VTRIPHYS
where VTRIPHYS ≈ 30mV
These power control situations are illustrated in Figure 3 and
Figure 4.
8
The ISL12020 monitor the VDD level continuously and
provide warning if the VDD level drops below prescribed
levels. There are six (6) levels that can be selected for the
trip level. These values are 85% below popular VDD levels.
The LVDD bit in the Status Register will be set to “1” when
Brownout is detected. Note. The I2C serial bus remains
active unless the Battery Vtrip levels are reached.
FN6450.0
March 29, 2007
ISL12020
Battery Level Monitor
The ISL12020 have a built in warning feature once the Back
Up battery level drops first to 85% and then to 75% of the
battery’s nominal VBAT level. When the battery voltage
drops to between 85% and 75%, the LBAT85 bit is set in the
status register. When the level drops below 75%, both
LBAT85 and LBAT75 bits are set in the status register.
There is a Battery Timestamp Function available. Once the
VDD is low enough to enable switchover to the battery, the
RTC time/date are written into the TSVTB register. This
information can be read from the TSVTB registers to
discover the point in time of the VDD powerdown. If there are
multiple powerdown cycles before reading these registers,
the first values stored in these registers will be retained.
These registers will hold the original powerdown value until
they are cleared by writing “00h” to each register.
Low Power Mode
The normal power switching of the ISL12020 is designed to
switch into battery backup mode only if the VDD power is
lost. This will ensure that the device can accept a wide range
of backup voltages from many types of sources while reliably
switching into backup mode. Another mode (called Low
Power Mode) is available to allow direct switching from VDD
to VBAT without requiring VDD to drop below VTRIP. Since
the additional monitoring of VDD vs VTRIP is no longer
needed, that circuitry is shut down and less power is used
while operating from VDD. Power savings are typically
600nA at VDD = 5V. Low Power Mode is activated via the
BSW bit in the control and status registers.
Low Power Mode is useful in systems where VDD is normally
higher than VBAT at all times. The device will switch from
VDD to VBAT when VDD drops below VBAT, with about 50mV
of hysteresis to prevent any switchback of VDD after
switchover. In a system with VDD = 5V and backup lithium
battery of VBAT = 3V, Low Power Mode can be used.
However, it is not recommended to use Low Power Mode in
a system with VDD = 3.3V ±10%, VBAT ≥ 3.0V, and when
there is a finite I-R voltage drop in the VDD line.
Real Time Clock Operation
The Real Time Clock (RTC) uses an external 32.768kHz
quartz crystal to maintain an accurate internal representation
of second, minute, hour, day of week, date, month, and year.
The RTC also 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 ISL12020
powers up after the loss of both VDD and VBAT, the clock will
not begin incrementing until at least one byte is written to the
clock register.
Single Event and Interrupt
that when the frequency output function is enabled, the
alarm function is disabled.
The standard alarm allows for alarms of time, date, day of
the week, month, and year. When a time alarm occurs in
single event mode, an IRQ pin will be pulled low and the
alarm status bit (ALM) will be set to “1”.
The pulsed interrupt mode allows for repetitive or recurring
alarm functionality. Hence, once the alarm is set, the device
will continue to alarm for each occurring match of the alarm
and present time. Thus, it will alarm as often as every minute
(if only the nth second is set) or as infrequently as once a
year (if at least the nth month is set). During pulsed interrupt
mode, the IRQ pin will be pulled low for 250ms and the alarm
status bit (ALM) will be set to “1”.
The ALM bit can be reset by the user or cleared
automatically using the auto reset mode (see ARST bit). The
alarm function can be enabled/disabled during battery
backup mode using the FOBATB bit. For more information
on the alarm, please see “ALARM Registers (10h to 15h)” on

The ISL12020 has the option to provide a clock output signal
using the IRQ/FOUT open drain output pin. The frequency
output mode is set by using the FO bits to select 15 possible
output frequency values from 1/32Hz to 32kHz. The
frequency output can be enabled/disabled during battery
backup mode using the FOBATB bit.
General Purpose User SRAM
The ISL12020 provides 128 bytes of user SRAM. The SRAM
will continue to operate in battery backup mode. However, it
should be noted that the I2C bus is disabled in battery
backup mode.
I2C Serial Interface
The ISL12020 has an I2C serial bus interface that provides
access to the control and status registers and the user
SRAM. The I2C serial interface is compatible with other
industry I2C serial bus protocols using a bi-directional data
signal (SDA) and a clock signal (SCL).
Oscillator Compensation
The ISL12020 provides both initial timing correction and
temperature correction due to variation of the crystal
oscillator. Analog and Digital trimming control is provided for
initial adjustment, and a temperature compensation function
is provided to automatically correct for temperature drift of
the crystal. Initial values for the temperature coefficient
(ALPHA) and crystal capacitance (BETA) are required for
best accuracy. The function can be enabled/disabled at any
time and can be used in battery mode as well.
The alarm mode is enabled via the MSB bit. Choosing single
event or interrupt alarm mode is selected via the IM bit. Note

Register Descriptions
The battery-backed registers are accessible following a
slave byte of “1101111x” and reads or writes to addresses
[00h:13h]. The defined addresses and default values are
described in the Table 1. The battery backed general
purpose SRAM has a different slave address (1010111x), so
it is not possible to read/write that section of memory while
accessing the registers.
REGISTER ACCESS
The contents of the registers can be modified by performing
a byte or a page write operation directly to any register
address.
The registers are divided into 8 sections. They are:
1. Real Time Clock (7 bytes): Address 00h to 06h.
2. Control and Status (9 bytes): Address 07h to 0Fh.
3. Alarm (6 bytes): Address 10h to 15h.
4. Time Stamp for Battery Status (5 bytes): Address 16h to
1Ah.
Write capability is allowable into the RTC registers (00h to
06h) only when the WRTC bit (bit 6 of address 08h) is set to
“1”. A multi-byte read or write operation is limited to one
section per operation. Access to another section requires a
new operation. A read or write can begin at any address
within the section.
A register can be read by performing a random read at any
address at any time. This returns the contents of that register
location. Additional registers are read by performing a
sequential read. For the RTC and Alarm registers, the read
instruction latches all clock registers into a buffer, so an
update of the clock does not change the time being read. At
the end of a read, the master supplies a stop condition to
end the operation and free the bus. After a read, the address
remains at the previous address +1 so the user can execute
a current address read and continue reading the next
register.
It is not necessary to set the WRTC bit prior to writing into
the control and status, alarm, and user SRAM registers.
5. Time Stamp for VDD Status (5 bytes): Address 1Bh to
1Fh.
6. Day Light Saving Time (8 bytes): 20h to 27h.
7. TEMP (2 bytes): 28h to 29h
8. Scratch Pad (6 bytes): Address 2Ah to 2Fh.

Real Time Clock Registers
DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME CHANGE BIT (DSTADJ)
DSTADJ is the Daylight Saving Time Adjusted Bit. It
indicates the daylight saving time adjustment has happened.
DSTADJ is reset to 0 upon power up. If DST event happens
(at either the beginning or the end of DST), DSTADJ will be
set to 1. A read of the SR will reset the DSTADJ, or it will be
automatically reset on the following month.
Addresses [00h to 06h]
RTC REGISTERS (SC, MN, HR, DT, MO, YR, DW)
These registers depict BCD representations of the time. As
such, SC (Seconds) and MN (Minutes) range from 0 to 59,
HR (Hour) can either be a 12-hour or 24-hour mode, DT
(Date) is 1 to 31, MO (Month) is 1 to 12, YR (Year) is 0 to 99,
and DW (Day of the Week) is 0 to 6.
ALARM BIT (ALM)
The DW register provides a Day of the Week status and uses
three bits DW2 to DW0 to represent the seven days of the
week. The counter advances in the cycle 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-0-12-… 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”.
These bits announce if the alarm matches the real time clock.
If there is a match, the respective bit is set to “1”. This bit can
be manually reset to “0” by the user or automatically reset by
enabling the auto-reset bit (see ARST bit). A write to this bit in
the SR can only set it to “0”, not “1”. An alarm bit that is set by
an alarm occurring during an SR read operation will remain
set after the read operation is complete.
24 HOUR TIME
LOW VDD INDICATOR BIT (LVDDVDD)
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 HR21 bit functions as an AM/PM indicator with a
“1” representing PM. The clock defaults to 12-hour format
time with HR21 = “0”.
Indicates VDD dropped below the pre-selected trip level.
(Brown Out Mode). The Trip points for Brown Out levels are
selected by three bits VDDTrip2, VDDTrip1 and VDDTrip0 in
PWR_VDD registers.
LEAP YEARS
Indicates battery level dropped below the pre-selected trip
levels (85% of battery voltage). The trip points are selected
by three bits: VB85Tp2, VB85Tp1 and VB85Tp0 in the
PWR_VBAT registers.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR 85% BIT (LBAT85)
Leap years add the day February 29 and are defined as those
years that are divisible by 4. Years divisible by 100 are not leap
years, unless they are also divisible by 400. This means that
the year 2000 is a leap year and the year 2100 is not. The
ISL12020 does not correct for the leap year in the year 2100.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR 75% BIT (LBAT75)
Indicates battery level dropped below the pre-selected trip
levels (75% of battery voltage). The trip points are selected
by three bits VB75Tp2, VB75Tp1 and VB75Tp0 in the
PWR_VBAT registers.
Control and Status Registers (CSR)
Addresses [07h to 0Fh]
The Control and Status Registers consist of the Status
Register, Interrupt and Alarm Register, Analog Trimming and
Digital Trimming Registers.
REAL TIME CLOCK FAIL BIT (RTCF)
This bit is set to a “1” after a total power failure. This is a read
only bit that is set by hardware (ISL12020 internally) when
the device powers up after having lost all power (defined as
VDD = 0V and VBAT = 0V). The bit is set regardless of
whether VDD or VBAT is applied first. The loss of only one of
the supplies does not set the RTCF bit to “1”. The first valid
write to the RTC section after a complete power failure
resets the RTCF bit to “0” (writing one byte is sufficient).
Status Register (SR)
The Status Register is located in the memory map at
address 07h. This is a volatile register that provides either
control or status of RTC failure (RTCF), Battery Level
Monitor (LBAT85, LBAT75), alarm trigger, Daylight Saving
Time, crystal oscillator enable and temperature conversion
in progress bit.

BATTERY SWITCHOVER BIT (BSW)
Initial ATR and DTR setting Register (ITRO)
This bit selects either standard mode or low power mode
battery switchover. In standard Mode (BSW = 0), the VDD
switches over to battery at the low trip point, typically 2.2V. In
Low Power Mode (BSW = 1), VDD switches over to battery at
the battery voltage (VBAT). Low power mode uses less power
in battery backup for applications requiring longer backup
times.
These bits are to be used to trim the initial error (at room
temperature) of the crystal. Both digital (DTR) and analog
(ATR) trimming methods are available. The digital trimming
uses clock pulse skipping and insertion for frequency
adjustment. Analog trimming uses load capacitance
adjustment to pull the oscillator frequency. A range of
+64ppm to -63ppm is possible with combined Digital and
Analog trimming.
BATTERY LEVEL MONITOR TRIP BITS (VB85TP <2:0>)
Three bits selects the first alarm (85% of Nominal VBAT) level
for the battery voltage monitor. There are total of 7 levels that
could be selected for the first alarm.Any of the of levels could be
selected as the first alarm with no reference as to nominal
Battery voltage level. See Table 8.

ALPHA6 ALPHA5 ALPHA4 ALPHA3 ALPHA2 ALPHA1 ALPHA0
The Alpha variable is 7 bits and is defined as the
temperature coefficient of Crystal, normally given in units of
ppm/°C2 = and with a typical value of -0.034. The ISL12020
devices use a scaled version of the absolute value of this
coefficient in order to get an integer value. Therefore, Alpha
<6:0> is defined as the (|Actual Alpha Value| x 1024) and
converted to binary. For example, a crystal with Alpha of 0.034ppm/°C2 is first scaled:
|1024*(-0.034)| = 35d and then converted to a binary number
of 0100011b.
The practical range of Actual Alpha values is from
-0.020 to -0.060.

TEMPERATURE SENSOR ENABLED BIT (TSE)
This bit enables the Temperature Sensing operation, including
the temperature sensor, A/D converter and ATR/DTR register
adjustment. The default mode after power up is disabled
(TSE = 0). To enable the operation, TSE should be set to 1
(TSE = 1). When temp sense is disabled, the initial values for
IATR and IDTR registers are used for frequency control.
All changes to the IDTR, IATR, ALPHA and BETA registers
must be made with TSE = 0. After loading the new values,
then TSE can be enabled and the new values are used.
TEMP SENSOR CONVERSION IN BATTERY MODE BIT
(BTSE)
This bit enables the Temperature Sensing and Correction in
battery mode. BTSE = 0 defualt no conversion in battery
mode. BTSE = 1 Temp Sensing enabled in battery
mode.The BTSE is disabled when battery voltage is lower
than 2.6V.
FREQUENCY OF TEMPERATURE SENSING AND
CORRECTION BIT (BTSR)
This bit controls the frequency of Temp Sensing and
Correction. BTSR = 0 default mode is every 10 minutes,
BTSR = 1 is every 1.0 minute. Note that BTSE has to be
enabled in both cases. See Table 15.

This Register shows the final setting of DTR after
temperature correction. It is read-only, the user cannot
overwrite a value to this register. The value is accessible as
a means of monitoring the temperature compensation
function. The corresponding clock adjustment values are
shown in Table 19. The DTR setting is only positive as it is
used to correct for the negative drift of a normal crystal over
temperature.
TABLE 18. FINAL DIGITAL TRIMMING REGISTER
GAIN FACTOR OF ATR BIT (BETA)<3:0>
Beta is specified to take care of the Cm variations of the
crystal. Most crystals specify Cm around 2.2fF. For example,
if Cm > 2.2fF, the actual ATR steps may reduce from
1ppm/step to approximately 0.80ppm/step. Beta is then used
to adjust for this variation and restore the step size to
1ppm/step.
The value for BETA should only be changed while the TSE
(Temp Sense Enable) bit is “0”. The procedure for writing the
BETA register involves two steps. First, Write the new value
of BETA with TSE = 0. Then Write the same value of BETA
with TSE = 1. This will insure the next temp sense cycle will
use the new BETA value. BETA values are limited in the
range from 0100 to 1100 as shown in Table 16.

ALARM Registers (10h to 15h)
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.
Final Analog Trimming Register (FATR)
This register shows the final setting of ATR after temperature
correction. It is read-only, the user cannot overwrite a value
to this register. This value is accessible as a means of
monitoring the temperature compensation function. See

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.
There are two alarm operation modes: Single Event and
periodic Interrupt Mode:
• Single Event Mode is enabled by setting the bit 7 on any
of the Alarm registers (ESCA0... EDWA0) 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 ALM
bit is set to “1” and the IRQ output will be pulled low and
will remain low until the ALM bit is reset. This can be done
manually or by using the auto-reset feature.
• Interrupt Mode is enabled by setting the bit 7 on any of
the Alarm registers (ESCA0... EDWA0) to “1”, the IM bit to
17
FN6450.0

ISL12020
“1”, and disabling the frequency output. The IRQ 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.
To clear a single event alarm, the ALM bit in the status
register must be set to “0” with a write. Note that if the ARST
bit is set to 1 (address 08h, bit 7), the ALM bit will
automatically be cleared when the status register is read.

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 ALM bit in the
status register to “1” and also bringing the IRQ output low.
Example 2
The TSV2B Register bytes are identical to the RTC register
bytes, except they do not extend beyond the Month. The Time
Stamp captures the FIRST VDD to Battery Voltage transition
time, and will not update upon subsequent events, until cleared
(only the first event is captured before clearing). Set CLRTS = 1
to clear this register (Add 09h, PWR_VDD register).
Note that the time stamp registers are cleared to all “0”,
including the month and day, which is different from the RTC
and alarm registers (those registers default to 01h). This is
the indicator that no time stamping has occurred since the
last clear or initial powerup. Once a time stamp occurs, there
will be a non-zero time stamp.
Time Stamp Battery to VDD Registers (TSB2V)
The Time Stamp Battery to VDD Register bytes are identical
to the RTC register bytes, except they do not extend beyond
Month. The Time Stamp captures the LAST transition of
VBAT to VD (only the last event of a series of power up/down
events is retained). Set CLRTS = 1 to clear this register (Add
09h, PWR_VDD register).

and DstHrFd. DST ending time is controlled by DstMoRv,
DstDwRv, DstDtRv and DstHrRv.
The following tables describe the structure and functions of
the DSTCR.
DST REVERSE REGISTERS (24H TO 27H)
DST FORWARD REGISTERS (20H TO 23H)
The end of DST is controlled by the following DST Registers.
DSTE is the DST Enabling Bit located in bit 7 of register 20h
(DstMoFdxx). Set DSTE = 1 will enable the DSTE function.
Upon powering up for the first time (including battery), the
DSTE bit defaults to “0”.
DstMoRv sets the Month that DST ends. The default value
for the DST end month is October (10h).
DstDwRv controls which count of the Day of the Week that
DST should end. DstDwRvE sets the priority of the Day of the
Week over the Date. For DstDwRvE = 1, Day of the week is
the priority. Note that Day of the week counts from 0 to 6, like
the RTC registers.
The beginning of DST is controlled by the following DST
Registers.
DstMoFd sets the Month that DST starts. The default value
for the DST begin month is April (04h).
The default for DST end is Sunday (80h).
DstDw sets the Day of the Week that DST starts. DstDwFdE
sets the priority of the Day of the Week over the Date. For
DstDwFdE=1, Day of the week is the priority. Note that Day
of the week counts from 0 to 6, like the RTC registers.
DstDtRv controls which Date DST ends. The default value
DST is set to end is the first date of the month. The DstDtRv
is only effective if the DstDwRvE = 0.
DstHrRv controls the hour that DST ends. It includes the MIL
bit which is in the corresponding RTC register. These two
registers need to match formats (Military or AM/PM) in order
for the DST function to work. The default value sets the DST
end at 2:00AM. The time is set back from 2:00:00AM to
1:00:00AM for this setting.
The default for the DST Forward Day of the Week is Sunday
(80h).
DstDtfd control which Date DST begins. The defaulted value
for DST date is on the first date of the month. DstDtFd is only
effective if DstDwFdE = 0.
DstHrFd controls the hour that DST begins. It includes the
MIL bit which is in the corresponding RTC register. These

TEMP Registers (TEMP)
The temperature sensor produces an analog voltage output
and is input to an A/D converter which outputs a 10-bit
temperature value in degrees Kelvin. The output is coded to
produce greater resolution for the temperature control.
TK07:00 are the LSBs of the code, and TK09:08 are the
MSBs of the code. The output code can be converted to
degrees Centigrade by first converting from binary to
decimal and then subtracting 369d.
(EQ. 1)
Temperature in °C = [(TK <9:0>)/2] - 369
The practical range for the temp sensor register output is
from 658d to 908d, or -40°C to +85°C.
The TSE bit must be set to “1” to enable temperature
sensing.

User Registers (accessed by using Slave
Address 1010111x)
Addresses [00h to 7Fh]
These registers are 128 bytes of battery-backed user SRAM.
I2C Serial Interface
The ISL12020 supports a bi-directional bus oriented
protocol. The protocol defines any device that sends data
onto the bus as a transmitter and the receiving device as the
receiver. The device controlling the transfer is the master
and the device being controlled is the slave. The master
always initiates data transfers and provides the clock for
both transmit and receive operations. Therefore, the
ISL12020 operates as a slave device in all applications.
All communication over the I2C interface is conducted by
sending the MSB of each byte of data first.
Protocol Conventions
Data states on the SDA line can change only during SCL
LOW periods. SDA state changes during SCL HIGH are
reserved for indicating START and STOP conditions (See
Figure 7). On power up of the ISL12020, the SDA pin is in
the input mode.
All I2C interface operations must begin with a START
condition, which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA while
SCL is HIGH. The ISL12020 continuously monitors the SDA
and SCL lines for the START condition and does not
respond to any command until this condition is met (See
Figure 7). A START condition is ignored during the power-up
sequence.
All I2C interface operations must be terminated by a STOP
condition, which is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while
SCL is HIGH (See Figure 7). A STOP condition at the end of
a read operation or at the end of a write operation to memory
only places the device in its standby mode.
An acknowledge (ACK) is a software convention used to
indicate a successful data transfer. The transmitting device,
either master or slave, releases the SDA bus after
transmitting eight bits. During the ninth clock cycle, the
receiver pulls the SDA line LOW to acknowledge the
reception of the eight bits of data (See Figure 8).
The ISL12020 responds with an ACK after recognition of a
START condition followed by a valid Identification Byte, and
once again after successful receipt of an Address Byte. The
ISL12020 also responds with an ACK after receiving a Data
Byte of a write operation. The master must respond with an
ACK after receiving a Data Byte of a read operation.

Device Addressing
Following a start condition, the master must output a Slave
Address Byte. The 7 MSBs are the device identifier. These bits
are “1101111” for the RTC registers and:1010111” for the User
SRAM.
The last bit of the Slave Address Byte defines a read or write
operation to be performed. When this R/W bit is a “1”, then a
read operation is selected. A “0” selects a write operation
(refer to Figure 10).
After loading the entire Slave Address Byte from the SDA bus,
the ISL12020 compares the device identifier and device select
bits with “1101111” or “1010111”. Upon a correct compare, the
device outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line.
Following the Slave Byte is a one 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 00h, so a current address read starts
at address 00h. When required, as part of a random read, the
master must supply the 1 Word Address Bytes as shown in
Figure 12.
In a random read operation, the slave byte in the “dummy write”
portion must match the slave byte in the “read” section. For a
random read of the Control/Status Registers, the slave byte
must be “1101111x” in both places.

Write Operation
A Write operation requires a START condition, followed by a
valid Identification Byte, a valid Address Byte, a Data Byte,
and a STOP condition. After each of the three bytes, the
ISL12020 responds with an ACK. At this time, the I2C
interface enters a standby state.
Read Operation
A Read operation consists of a three byte instruction
followed by one or more Data Bytes (See Figure 12). The
master initiates the operation issuing the following
sequence: a START, the Identification byte with the R/W bit
set to “0”, an Address Byte, a second START, and a second
Identification byte with the R/W bit set to “1”. After each of
the three bytes, the ISL12020 responds with an ACK. Then
FN6450.0
March 29, 2007
ISL12020
the ISL12020 transmits Data Bytes as long as the master
responds with an ACK during the SCL cycle following the
eighth bit of each byte. The master terminates the read
operation (issuing a STOP condition) following the last bit of
the last Data Byte (See Figure 12).
The Data Bytes are from the memory location indicated by
an internal pointer. This pointers initial value is determined
by the Address Byte in the Read operation instruction, and
increments by one during transmission of each Data Byte.
After reaching the memory location 13h, the pointer “rolls
over” to 00h, and the device continues to output data for
each ACK received.

The crystal should have a required parallel load capacitance
of 12.5pF and an equivalent series resistance of less than
50k. The crystal’s temperature range specification should
match the application. Many crystals are rated for -10°C to
+60°C (especially through hole and tuning fork types), so an
appropriate crystal should be selected if extended
temperature range is required.
Layout Considerations
The crystal input at X1 has a very high impedance, and
oscillator circuits operating at low frequencies such as
32.768kHz are known to pick up noise very easily if layout
precautions are not followed. Most instances of erratic
clocking or large accuracy errors can be traced to the
susceptibility of the oscillator circuit to interference from
adjacent high speed clock or data lines. Careful layout of the
RTC circuit will avoid noise pickup and insure accurate
clocking.
Figure 11 shows a suggested layout for the ISL12020 device
using a surface mount crystal. Two main precautions should
be followed:
• Do not run the serial bus lines or any high speed logic
lines in the vicinity of the crystal. These logic level lines
can induce noise in the oscillator circuit to cause
misclocking.
Application Section
• Add a ground trace around the crystal with one end
terminated at the chip ground. This will provide termination
for emitted noise in the vicinity of the RTC device.
Battery Backup Details
Note that any input signal conditioning circuitry that is added
in regular operation or battery backup should have minimum
supply current drain, or have the capability to be put in a low
power standby mode. Op Amps such as the EL8176 have
low normal supply current (50µA) and standby power drain
(3µA), so can be used in battery backup applications.
Oscillator Crystal Requirements
The ISL12020 uses a standard 32.768kHz crystal. Either
through hole or surface mount crystals can be used.
Table 23 lists some recommended surface mount crystals
and the parameters of each. This list is not exhaustive and
other surface mount devices can be used with the ISL12020
if their specifications are very similar to the devices listed.

In addition, it is a good idea to avoid a ground plane under
the X1 and X2 pins and the crystal, as this will affect the load
capacitance and therefore the oscillator accuracy of the
circuit. If the ~IRQ/FOUT pin is used as a clock, it should be
routed away from the RTC device as well. The traces for the
VBAT and VDD pins can be treated as a ground, and should
be routed around the crystal.
Super Capacitor Backup
The ISL12020 device provides a VBAT pin which is used for
a battery backup input. A Super Capacitor can be used as an
alternative to a battery in cases where shorter backup times
are required. Since the battery backup supply current
required by the ISL12020 is extremely low, it is possible to
get months of backup operation using a Super Capacitor.
Typical capacitor values are a few µF to 1F or more
depending on the application.
If backup is only needed for a few minutes, then a small
inexpensive electrolytic capacitor can be used. For extended
periods, a low leakage, high capacity Super Capacitor is the
best choice. These devices are available from such vendors
as Panasonic and Murata. The main specifications include
working voltage and leakage current. If the application is for
charging the capacitor from a +5V ±5% supply with a signal
diode, then the voltage on the capacitor can vary from ~4.5V
to slightly over 5.0V. A capacitor with a rated WV of 5.0V
may have a reduced lifetime if the supply voltage is slightly
high. The leakage current should be as small as possible.
For example, a Super Capacitor should be specified with
leakage of well below 1µA. A standard electrolytic capacitor
with DC leakage current in the microamps will have a
severely shortened backup time.
Following are some examples with equations to assist with
calculating backup times and required capacitance for the
ISL12020 device. The backup supply current plays a major
part in these equations, and a typical value was chosen for
example purposes. For a robust design, a margin of 30%
should be included to cover supply current and capacitance
tolerances over the results of the calculations. Even more
margin should be included if periods of very warm
temperature operation are expected.
In Figure 13, use CBAT = 0.47F and VDD = 5.0V. With
VDD = 5.0V, the voltage at VBAT will approach 4.7V as the
diode turns off completely. The ISL12020 is specified to
operate down to VBAT = 1.8V. The capacitance
charge/discharge equation is used to estimate the total
backup time:
(EQ. 2)
Rearranging gives
CBAT is the backup capacitance and dV is the change in
voltage from fully charged to loss of operation. Note that
ITOT is the total of the supply current of the ISL12020 (IBAT)
plus the leakage current of the capacitor and the diode, ILKG.
In these calculations, ILKG is assumed to be extremely small
and will be ignored. If an application requires extended
operation at temperatures over +50°C, these leakages will
increase and hence reduce backup time.
Note that IBAT changes with VBAT almost linearly. This
allows us to make an approximation of IBAT, using a value
midway between the two endpoints. The typical linear
equation for IBAT vs VBAT is:
(EQ. 4)
IBAT = 1.031E-7*(VBAT) + 1.036E-7A
Using this equation to solve for the average current given 2
voltage points gives:
IBATAVG = 5.155E-8*(VBAT2 + VBAT1) + 1.036E-7A
(EQ. 5)
Combining with Equation 3 gives the equation for backup
time:
tBACKUP = CBAT*(VBAT2 - VBAT1) / (IBATAVG + ILKG)
seconds
(EQ. 6)
where
CBAT = 0.47F
VBAT2 = 4.7V
VBAT1 = 1.8V
ILKG = 0 (assumed minimal)
Solving Equation 5 for this example, IBATAVG = 4.387E-7A
tBACKUP = 0.47*(2.9)/4.38E-7 = 3.107E6s
Since there are 86,400 seconds in a day, this corresponds to
35.96 days. If the 30% tolerance is included for capacitor
and supply current tolerances, then worst case backup time
would be:
(EQ. 7)
CBAT = 0.70*35.96 = 25.2 days

Voltages and Capacitor Value
I = CBAT*dV/dT

dT = CBAT*dV/ITOT to solve for backup time.

Example 2. Calculating a Capacitor Value for a
Given Backup Time
Referring to Figure 13 again, the capacitor value needs to be
calculated to give 2 months (60 days) of backup time, given
VDD = 5.0V. As in Example 1, the VBAT voltage will vary from
4.7V down to 1.8V. We will need to rearrange
Equation 3 to solve for capacitance:
(EQ. 8)
CBAT = dT*I/dV
Using the terms described above, this equation becomes:
CBAT = tBACKUP*(IBATAVG + ILKG)/(VBAT2 – VBAT1)
(EQ. 9)
where
tBACKUP = 60 days*86, 400s/day = 5.18 E6s
IBATAVG = 4.387 E-7A (same as Example 1)
ILKG = 0 (assumed)
VBAT2 = 4.7V
VBAT1 = 1.8V
Solving gives
CBAT = 5.18 E6 * (4.387 E-7)/(2.9) = 0.784F
If the 30% tolerance is included for tolerances, then worst
case cap value would be:
CBAT = 1.3 *.784 = 1.02F
