More detailed crystal nominal frequency is normally specified for certain load capacitance but in MAS6180 filter circuit the load capacitance is not used. Effectively this means that most accurate filter frequency is achieved by using about 3 Hz higher frequency crystal than the received time signal frequency. For example in DCF77 application a 77.503 kHz crystal resonates at the desired DCF77 77.500 kHz frequency when the load capacitor is missing. Table 1.

MAS6180B5 is option for external crystal compensation capacitor. The external compensation capacitor should be matched similarly as well as possible with crystal’s shunt capacitance. See Compensation Capacitance Options on table 2. Table 2 . Compensation Capacitance Options Device CC Crystal Description MAS6180B1 MAS6180B5 0.75 pF CC_EXT For low C0 crystals For any crystals, external compensation capacitor It should be noted that grounded crystal package has reduced shunt capacitance. This value is about 85% of floating crystal shunt capacitance. For example crystal with 1 pF floating package shunt capacitance can have 0.85 pF grounded package shunt capacitance. PCB traces of crystal and external compensation capacitance should be kept at minimum to minimize additional parasitic capacitance which can cause capacitance mismatching. In dual band receiver configuration the crystals are best to connect as shown in figure 3. In this configuration the crystals’ shunt capacitances compensate each other and external compensation capacitor is not needed at all.

The insulation resistance of these capacitors should be at minimum 100 MΩ. Also probes with at least few 100 MΩ impedance should be used for voltage probing of the AGC and DEC pins. Electrolytic AGC capacitor should have voltage rating at least 25 V for low enough leakage. DEC capacitor can be low leakage chip capacitor. It is recommended to connect both AGC and DEC capacitors to VDD (see application figures 1, 2 and 3) although VSS connection is also possible. The VDD connection provides better supply noise immunity because signals are referenced to VDD. Additionally leakage currents are minimized in this connection because in power down the AGC pin voltage is pulled to VDD (to minimum AGC gain) then corresponding to zero voltage over the AGC capacitor. Note 3: Power Down / Fast Startup Control Both power down and fast startup are controlled using the PDN pin. The device is in power down (turned off) if PDN = VDD and in power up (turned on) if PDN = VSS. Fast startup is triggered automatically by the falling edge of PDN signal, i.e., controlling device from power down to power up. The VDD must be high before falling edge of PDN to guarantee proper operation of fast startup circuitry. Before power up the device should have been kept in power down state at least 50ms. This guarantees that the AGC capacitor voltage has been completely pulled to VDD during power down. The startup time without proper fast startup control can be over minute but with fast startup it is shortened typically to a few seconds. Note 4: Optional Control for AGC On/Hold AON control pin has internal pull up which turns AGC circuit on all the time if AON pin is left unconnected. Optionally AON control can be used to hold and release AGC circuit. Stepper motor drive of analog clock or watch can produce disturbing amount of noise which can shift the input amplifier gain to unoptimal level. This can be avoided by controlling AGC hold (AON=VSS) during stepper motor drive periods and releasing AGC (AON=VDD) when motors are not driven. The AGC should be in hold only during disturbances and kept on other time released since due to leakage the AGC voltage can change slowly even when in hold. Note 5: Ferrite Antenna The ferrite antenna converts the transmitted radio wave into a voltage signal. It has an important role in determining receiver performance. Recommended antenna impedance at resonance is around 100 kΩ. Low antenna impedance corresponds to low noise but often also to small signal amplitude. On the other hand high antenna impedance corresponds to high noise but also large signal. The optimum performance where signal-to-noise ratio is at maximum is achieved in between. The antenna should have also some selectivity for rejecting near signal band disturbances. This is determined by the antenna quality factor which should be approximately 100. Much higher quality factor antennas suffer from extensive tuning accuracy requirements and possible tuning drifts by the temperature. Antenna impedance Rant can be calculated using equation 1 where fres, L, Qant and C are resonance frequency, coil inductance, antenna quality factor and antenna tuning capacitor respectively. Antenna quality factor Qant is defined by ratio of resonance frequency fres and antenna bandwidth B (equation 2). Rant = 2π ⋅ f res ⋅ L ⋅ Qant = Qant = f res B Qant 1 = 2π ⋅ f res ⋅ C 2π ⋅ B ⋅ C Equation 1. Equation 2.

Due to process variations the typical output pulse width can differ from these. Additionally the output pulse widths can vary even more depending on the receiving antenna signal strength versus noise and disturbance conditions. That is why it is important that the time signal decoding software has appropriate tolerance limits for managing the output pulse width variations successfully. The table 5 presents recommended software pulse width tolerance limits for recognizing pulses of different time signals. Table 5.
