The clock will be displayed in a 12-hour format with the hours ranging from 1 to 12 and and minutes from 00 to 59. If the most significant numeral is zero then the display will be extinguished. The external reset pin A/C is used to reset the internal circuit of the device. When this pin is pulled low the device will be reset, when the pin is allowed to go high, via its internal pull-high resistor, then the display will indicate a ²1:00² output. · Segment connections In the open status, the SE pin is held to ²high² level by a pull-high resistor, enabling the inputs from MS, HS and ZA pins. These inputs become invalid by setting this pin to a ²low² level externally. A 7-segment display is shown below showing the illumination pattern for each numeral. A F B G E C D 7 -S e g m e n ts The 64Hz pin allows monitoring of the system frequency to allow frequency adjustments to be executed. As the name suggests, this output pin will continuously output a frequency of 64Hz. In the open status, the TEST1 and TEST2 pins are kept at a ²0² level by pull-down resistors. As the device is designed for clock applications, four 7-segment displays are required to display the correct time output. The connections for the segments are shown below, however it should be noted that the fourth segment only requires two of its segments to be driven. a 3 A M f3 b 4 P M c 4 d ig it4 e 3 d 3 a 2 1 H z f2 b 3 g 3 c 3 d 2 1 H z d ig it3 The Test pin function is as shown in the following table. a 1 f1 b 2 g 2 e 2 In the open status, the TEST3 and TEST4 pins are kept at a ²1² level by pull-up resistors. c 2 d ig it2 e 1 b 1 g 1 d 1 c 1 d ig it1 TEST select function 1 Switch Pin Name Operating mode TEST1 TEST2 TEST3 0 (or Open) 0 (or Open) 1 (or Open) Normal function F(Pulse) 1 1 (or Open) Input pulses to the 16.384KHz system of the circuit. 1 F(Pulse) 1 (or Open) Input pulses to the 16.384KHz system of the circuit. 1 F(Pulse) 0 Input pulses to the 64Hz system of the circuit. F(Pulse) 1 0 Input pulses to the 64Hz system of the circuit. F(Pulse) 0 (or Open) 0 Input pulses for the minute and hour counters, which advances 1 count with 1 pulse.

This pin is connected to an internal pull low resistor. Pulling this line high will reset both the internal minutes and seconds value, however the way in which the display is reset depends upon the present value of display. If the minute value is presently less than 30 the only the second and minute values will be reset to zero and the hour value remain unchanged. However if the minute value is presently at a value of 30 or higher then when the zero adjustment function is executed, a carry will be implemented and the hour value will be increment by one. The following table illustrates a few examples of this operation. · Reset Although the device is provided with an external reset pin A/C, the device will in fact reset itself when power is applied, eliminating the need for external reset components. The usual provision of an external capacitor is not required as an internal reset capacitor is integrated within the device. · Chatter removal The device contains circuits which are connected to input pins HS, MS and ZA to remove chatter of less than 31.25ms. · Oscillator The basic time base frequency for this device is determined by an external 4.194304MHz crystal. When an external crystal along with two small external capacitors are connected to the two oscillator pins, the internal oscillator circuit will ensure generation of the correct time base signals. The oscillation frequency, although determined by the external crystal frequency, will also be influenced by the external capacitors, the crystal inherent capacitance and the residual capacitance of the external PCB tracks. To ensure accurate frequency generation, the crystal specification should be taken into account and care taken to place the external capacitors and crystal as close to the device as possible.

The hour set pin, HS, and the minutes set pin, MS, are used to make these adjustments. Both of these pins are connected to internal pull-low resistors. Each time one of these lines is pulled high, the respective hour or minute value will increment by one, also if the line is continuously held high then the respective value will increment automatically at a rate of 2Hz. Both values will increment together if both lines are pulled high simultaneously. Note that no carry functions will be implemented when either the hour or minute value overflows.
