DESCRIPTION
Serial Clock (SCL)
The X1286 device is a Real Time Clock with clock/calendar,
two polled alarms with integrated 32kx8 EEPROM, oscillator
compensation, and battery backup switch.
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 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.
Serial Data (SDA)
The Real-Time Clock keeps track of time with separate
registers for Hours, Minutes, Seconds and 1/100 of a
second. 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 powerful 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 provide
a hardware interrupt (IRQ Pin). There is a repeat
mode for the alarms allowing a periodic interrupt.
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).
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 2-wire
interface speed.
VBACK
This input provides a backup supply voltage to the
device. VBACK supplies power to the device in the
event the VCC supply fails. This pin can be connected
to a battery, a Supercap or tied to ground if not used.
The PHZ/IRQ pin may be software selected to provide
a frequency output of 1 Hz, 100 Hz, or 32,768 Hz.
Programmable Frequency/Interrupt Output – PHZ/IRQ
The device offers a backup power input pin. This
VBACK pin allows the device to be backed up by
battery or SuperCap. The entire X1286 device is fully
operational from 2.7 to 5.5 volts and the
clock/calendar portion of the X1286 device remains
fully operational down to 1.8 volts (Standby Mode).
When used as frequency output, this signal has a frequency of 32.768kHz, 100Hz, 1Hz or inactive.
The X1286 device provides 256K bits of EEPROM with 8
modes of BlockLock™ control. The BlockLock allows a
safe, secure memory for critical user and configuration
data, while allowing a large user storage area.

POWER CONTROL OPERATION
The power control circuit accepts a VCC and a VBACK
input. The power control circuit powers the clock from
VBACK when VCC < VBACK - 0.2V. It will switch back to
power the device from VCC when VCC exceeds VBACK.

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 SSEC register reset to “0” at the
next sub-second update after the stop bit is written.
The 1Hz frequency output from the PHZ/IRQ pin will
be reset to restart 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 nonvolatile write sequences. A single byte may
be written to the RTC without affecting the other bytes.

REAL TIME CLOCK OPERATION
The Real Time Clock (RTC) uses an external
32.768kHz quartz crystal to maintain an accurate
internal representation of the 1/100 of a second, 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
X1286 powers up after the loss of both VCC and
VBACK, 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 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. To avoid changing the current time by an
uncompleted write operation, the current time value is
loaded into a separate buffer at the falling edge of the
clock on the ACK bit before the RTC data input bytes,
the clock continues to run. The new serial input data
replaces the values in the buffer. This new RTC value
is loaded back into the RTC Register by a stop bit at
9
The accuracy of the Real Time Clock depends on the
frequency 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 loadcapacitance to tune oscillator frequency from +116 ppm
to -37 ppm when using a 12.5 pF load crystal. For more
detail information see the Application section.
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 the 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), however, the WEL and
RWEL bits must be set using a two step process (See
section “Writing to the Clock/Control Registers.”)
The CCR is divided into 5 sections. These are:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Alarm 0 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
Alarm 1 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
Control (4 bytes; non-volatile)
Real Time Clock (8 bytes; volatile)
Status (1 byte; volatile)
FN8101.0
March 29, 2005
X1286
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. Continued reads or writes,
once reaching the end of a section, will wrap around to
the start of the section. A read or write can begin at any
address in the CCR.
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.
It is not necessary to set the RWEL bit prior to writing
the status register. Section 5 supports a single byte
read or write only. Continued reads or writes from this
section terminates the operation.
There are two alarm registers whose contents mimic the
contents of the RTC register, but add enable bits and
exclude the 24 hour time selection bit. The enable bits
specify which registers to use in the comparison between
the Alarm and Real Time Registers. For example:
ALARM REGISTERS
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
– Setting the Enable Month bit (EMOn*) bit in combination with other enable bits and a specific alarm
time, the user can establish an alarm that triggers at
the same time once a year.

When there is a match, an alarm flag is set. The occurrence of an alarm can be determined by polling the
AL0 and AL1 bits or by enabling the IRQ output, using
it as hardware flag.
The alarm enable bits are located in the MSB of the
particular register. When all enable bits are set to ‘0’,
there are no alarms.
– The user can set the X1286 to alarm every Wednesday at 8:00 AM by setting the EDWn*, the EHRn*
and EMNn* enable bits to ‘1’ and setting the DWAn*,
HRAn* and MNAn* Alarm registers to 8:00 AM
Wednesday.
– A daily alarm for 9:30PM results when the EHRn*
and EMNn* enable bits are set to ‘1’ and the HRAn*
and MNAn* registers are set to 9:30 PM.
*n = 0 for Alarm 0: N = 1 for Alarm 1
REAL TIME CLOCK REGISTERS
Clock/Calendar Registers (SSEC, SC, MN, HR, DT,
MO, YR)
These registers depict BCD representations of the
time. As such, SSEC (1/100 Second) range from 00 to
99, 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. The SSEC
register is read-only.
Date of the Week Register (DW)
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’.
11
24 Hour Time
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 12hour format and H21 bit functions as an AM/PM indicator with a ‘1’ representing PM. The clock defaults to
standard time with H21=0.
Leap Years
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, the year 2100 is not. The X1286 does not correct
for the leap year in the year 2100.
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 two power status and two alarm
bits. This register is separate from both the array and
the Clock/Control Registers (CCR).

BAT: Battery Supply—Volatile
This bit set to “1” indicates that the device is operating
from VBACK, not VCC. It is a read-only bit and is set/reset
by hardware (X1286 interally). Once the device begins
operating from VCC, the device sets this bit to “0”.

AL1, AL0: Alarm bits—Volatile
Unused Bits:
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.
This device does not use bits 3 or 4 in the SR, but
must have a zero in these bit positions. The Data Byte
output during a SR read will contain zeros in these bit
locations.
CONTROL REGISTERS
The Control Bits and Registers, described under this
section, are nonvolatile.
RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch—Volatile
Table 3. Block Protect Bits
BP0
The WEL bit controls the access to the CCR and
memory array 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 or
any array address will be ignored (no acknowledge will
be issued after the Data Byte). 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 nonvolatile write cycle, so the device is ready for
the next operation immediately after the stop condition.
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 .
BP1
WEL: Write Enable Latch—Volatile
Block Protect Bits—BP2, BP1, BP0
BP2
This bit is a volatile latch that powers up in the LOW

to any writes to the Clock/Control Registers. Writes to
RWEL bit do not cause a nonvolatile 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.

Watchdog Timer Control Bits—WD1, WD0
RTCF: Real Time Clock Fail Bit—Volatile
This bit is set to a ‘1’ after a total power failure. This is
a read only bit that is set by hardware (X1286 internally) when the device powers up after having lost all
power to the device. The bit is set regardless of
whether VCC or VBACK 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’.

INTERRUPT CONTROL AND FREQUENCY
OUTPUT REGISTER (INT)
Interrupt Control and Status Bits (IM, AL1E, AL0E)
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). The interrupts are enabled when either
AL1E and AL0E are set to ‘1’, respectively.
Two volatile bits (AL1 and AL0), associated with the
two alarms respectively, indicate if an alarm has happened. These bits are set on an alarm condition
regardless of whether the IRQ interrupt is enabled.
The AL1 and AL0 bits in the status register are reset
by the falling edge of the eighth clock of a read of the
register containing the bits.
Pulse Interrupt Mode
The pulsed interrupt mode allows for repetitive or
recurring alarm functionality. Hence an repetitive or
recurring alarm can be set for every nth second, or nth
minute, or nth hour, or nth date, or for the same day of
the week. The pulsed interrupt mode can be considered a repetitive interrupt mode, with the repetition
rate set by the time setting fo the alarm.
The Pulse Interrupt Mode is enabled when the IM bit is
set.

Single Time Event Set By Alarm

Repetitive / Recurring Time Event Set By Alarm
The Alarm IRQ output will output a single pulse of
short duration (approximately 10-40ms) once the
alarm condition is met. If the interrupt mode bit (IM bit)
is set, then this pulse will be periodic.
Programmable Frequency Output Bits—FO1, FO0
These are two output control bits. They select one of
three divisions of the internal oscillator, that is applied
to the PHZ output pin. Table 5 shows the selection bits
for this output. When using the PHZ output function,
the Alarm IRQ output function is disabled.

ON-CHIP OSCILLATOR COMPENSATION
Digital Trimming Register (DTR) — DTR2, DTR1
and DTR0 (Non-Volatile)
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. 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 three bits above.

Analog Trimming Register (ATR) (Non-volatile)
Six analog trimming Bits from ATR5 to ATR0 are provided to adjust the on-chip loading capacitance range.
The on-chip load capacitance ranges from 3.25pF to
18.75pF. Each bit has a different weight for capacitance
adjustment. Using a Citizen CFS-206 crystal with different ATR bit combinations provides an estimated ppm
range from +116ppm to -37ppm to the nominal frequency compensation. The combination of digital and
analog trimming can give up to +146ppm adjustment.
The on-chip capacitance can be calculated as follows:
CATR = [(ATR value, decimal) x 0.25pF] + 11.0pF
Note that the ATR values are in two’s complement,
with ATR(000000) = 11.0pF, so the entire range runs
from 3.25pF to 18.75pF in 0.25pF steps.
The values calculated above are typical, and total load
capacitance seen by the crystal will include approximately 2pF of package and board capacitance in addition to the ATR value.

WRITING TO THE CLOCK/CONTROL REGISTERS
Changing any of the nonvolatile bits of the clock/
control register requires the following steps:
– 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 preceeded by a start and ended with a stop).
– 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 preceeded by a start
and ended with a stop).
– Write one to 8 bytes to the Clock/Control Registers
with the desired clock, alarm, or control data. 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 CCR changes
EEPROM values so these initiate a nonvolatile write
cycle and will take up to 10ms to complete. Writes to
undefined areas have no effect. The RWEL bit is
reset by the completion of a nonvolatile write cycle,
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.
SERIAL COMMUNICATION
Interface Conventions
The device supports a bidirectional 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
called the master and the device being controlled is
called the slave. The master always initiates data
transfers, and provides the clock for both transmit and
receive operations. Therefore, the devices in this family operate as slaves in all applications.
14
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 4.
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 5.
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 condition can only be issued
after the transmitting device has released the bus. See
Figure 5.
Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate successful data transfer. The transmitting device,
either master or slave, will release the bus after transmitting eight bits. During the ninth clock cycle, the
receiver will pull the SDA line LOW to acknowledge
that it received the eight bits of data. Refer to Figure 6.
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 eight bit word. The device
will acknowledge all incoming data and address bytes,
except for:
– The Slave Address Byte when the Device Identifier
and/or Select bits are incorrect
– All Data Bytes of a write when the WEL in the Write
Protect Register is LOW
– The 2nd Data Byte of a Status Register Write Operation (only 1 data byte is allowed)
In the read mode, the device will transmit eight 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 mode and place the
device into a known state.

DEVICE ADDRESSING
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.
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’.
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. Refer to Figure 7.
Acknowledge
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 powerup 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 7.
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.
After loading the entire Slave Address Byte from the
SDA bus, the X1286 compares the device identifier
and device select bits with ‘1010111’ or ‘1101111’.
Upon a correct compare, the device outputs an
acknowledge on the SDA line.

to the status register in two preceding operations to

Clock/Control Registers.”
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.” Upon
receipt of each address byte, the X1286 responds with
an acknowledge. After receiving both address bytes
the X1286 awaits the eight bits of data. After receiving
the 8 data bits, the X1286 again responds with an
acknowledge. The master then terminates the transfer
by generating a stop condition. The X1286 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 8.
After the receipt of each byte, the X1286 responds
with an acknowledge, and the address is internally
incremented by one. 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 128 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 105 of the memory and loads 30 bytes, then
the first 23 bytes are written to addresses 105 through
127, and the last 7 bytes are written to columns 0
through 6. Afterwards, the address counter would
point to location 7 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. Refer to Figure 9.
A write to a protected block of memory is ignored, but
will still receive an acknowledge. At the end of the
write command, the X1286 will not initiate an internal
write cycle, and will continue to ACK commands.
The master terminates the Data Byte loading by issuing a stop condition, which causes the X1286 to begin
the nonvolatile write cycle. As with the byte write operation, all inputs are disabled until completion of the
internal write cycle. Refer to Figure 10 for the address,
acknowledge, and data transfer sequence.
Page Write
Stops and Write Modes
The X1286 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 127
more bytes to the memory array and up to 7 more
bytes to the clock/control registers. (Note: Prior to writing to the CCR, the master must write a 02h, then 06h
Stop conditions that terminate write operations must
be sent by the master after sending at least 1 full data
byte and it’s 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 X1286 resets itself without performing the write. The contents of the array are not
affected.

for the address, acknowledge, and data transfer
sequence.
Acknowledge Polling
Disabling of the inputs during nonvolatile write cycles
can be used to take advantage of the typical 5mS write
cycle time. Once the stop condition is issued to indicate the end of the master’s byte load operation, the
X1286 initiates the internal nonvolatile write cycle.
Acknowledge polling can begin immediately. To do
this, the master issues a start condition followed by the
Slave Address Byte for a write or read operation. If the
X1286 is still busy with the nonvolatile write cycle then
no ACK will be returned. When the X1286 has completed the write operation, an ACK is returned and the
host can proceed with the read or write operation.
Refer to the flow chart in Figure 12.

Read Operations
There are three basic read operations: Current

Current Address Read
Internally the X1286 contains an address counter that
maintains the address of the last word read incremented by one. Therefore, if the last read was to
address n, the next read operation would access data
from address n+1. On power-up, the sixteen bit
address is initialized to 0h. In this way, a current
address read immediately after the power-onpower-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 X1286
issues an acknowledge, then transmits eight data bits.

activity will be ignored until a start is detected. This
operation loads the new address into the address
counter. The next Current Address Read operation will
read from the newly loaded address. This operation
could be useful if the master knows the next address it
needs to read, but is not ready for the data.
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.
Random Read
Sequential Read
Random read operations allows the master to access
any location in the X1286. Prior to issuing the Slave
Address Byte with the R/W bit set to zero, the master
must first perform a “dummy” write operation.
Sequential reads can be initiated as either a current
address read or random address read. The first data
byte is transmitted as with the other modes; however,
the master now responds with an acknowledge, indicating it requires additional data. The device continues
to output data for each acknowledge received. The
master terminates the read operation by not responding
with an acknowledge and then issuing a stop condition.
The master issues the start condition and the slave
address byte, receives an acknowledge, then issues
the word address bytes. After acknowledging receipt
of each word address byte, the master immediately
issues another start condition and the slave address
byte with the R/W bit set to one. This is followed by an
acknowledge from the device and then by the eight bit
data word. The master terminates the read operation
by not responding with an acknowledge and then issuing a stop condition. Refer to Figure 13 for the
address, acknowledge, and data transfer sequence.
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
X1286 continues to output data for each acknowledge
received. Refer to Figure 14 for the acknowledge and
data transfer sequence.
In a similar operation called “Set Current Address,” the
device sets the address if a stop is issued instead of
the second start shown in Figure 13. The X1286 then
goes into standby mode after the stop and all bus

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 7 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 deg C, and a peak drift of >110ppm occurs at
the temperature extremes of -40 and +85 deg 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. Incircuit tests with commercially available crystals demonstrate that this range of capacitance allows frequency control from +116ppm to -37ppm, 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 three 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 PHZ 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.
frequency, noise can couple to the X1 or X2 pins and
cause double-clocking. The layout in figure 15 can
help minimize this by running the PHZ output away
from the X1 and X2 pins. Also, minimizing the switching current at this pin by careful selection of the pullup
resistor value will reduce noise. Intersil suggests a
minimum value of 5.1k for 32.768kHz, and higher values (i.e. 20kΩ) for lower frequency PHZ outputs.
For more detailed operation see Intersil’s application
note AN154 on Intersil’s website at www.Intersil.com.
Most electronic circuits do not have to deal with
assembly issues, but with the RTC devices assembly
includes insertion or soldering of a live battery into an
unpowered circuit. If a socket is soldered to the board,
and a battery is inserted in final assembly, then there
are no issues with operation of the RTC. If the battery
is soldered to the board directly, then the RTC device
Vback pin will see some transient upset from either
soldering tools or intermittent battery connections
which can stop the circuit from oscillating. Once the
battery is soldered to the board, the only way to assure
the circuit will start up is to momentarily (very short
period of time!) short the Vback pin to ground and the
circuit will begin to oscillate.
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. Below in Figure 15 is
a suggested layout for the X1286 or X1288 devices.
For other RTC products, the same rules stated above
should be observed, but adjusted slightly since the
packages and pinouts are slightly different.

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 Vcc pin of the chip is mandatory, with a solid
connection to ground.
The X1286 product has a special consideration. The
PHZ/IRQ- pin on the 8-lead SOIC package is located
next to the X2 pin. When this pin is used as a frequency output (PHZ) and is set to 32.768kHz output
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 useable 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
RTC’s, 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 PHZ output, look at the output of that
pin on an oscilloscope (after enabling it with the control register, and using a pullup resistor for an opendrain output). Alternatively, the X1226/X1286/1288

Backup Battery Operation
Supercapacitor
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 supercapacitor for applications where Vcc
may disappear intermittently for short periods of time.
Depending on the value of supercapacitor 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 Vcc to charge the supercapacitor, which is connected to the Vback pin. Do not
use the diode to charge a battery (especially lithium
batteries!).
VSS
Since the battery switchover occurs at Vcc=Vback0.1V (see Figure 16), the battery voltage must always
be lower than the Vcc voltage during normal operation
or the battery will be drained.
The summary of conditions for backup battery operation is given in Table 9:

One way to prevent operation in battery backup mode
above the Vtrip level is to add a diode drop (silicon
diode preferred) to the battery to insure it is below
Vtrip. This will also provide reverse leakage protection
which may be needed to get safety agency approval.

Referring to Figure 16, Vtrip applies to the “Internal
Vcc” node which powers the entire device. This means
that if Vcc is powered down and the battery voltage at
Vback is higher than the Vtrip voltage, then the entire
chip will be running from the battery. If Vback falls to
lower than Vtrip, then the chip shuts down and all outputs are disabled except for the oscillator and timekeeping circuitry. The fact that the chip can be
powered from Vback is not necessarily an issue since
standby current for the RTC devices is <2µA for this
mode (called “main timekeeping current” in the data
sheet). Only when the serial interface is active is there
an increase in supply current, and with Vcc powered
down, the serial interface will most likely be inactive.

One mode that should always be avoided is the operation of the RTC device with Vback greater than both Vcc
and Vtrip (Condition 2d in Table 9). This will cause the
battery to drain quickly as serial bus communication and
non-volatile writes will require higher supplier current.
