Description
The Abracon Corporation AB08XX Real Time Clock family
provides a groundbreaking combination of ultra-low power
coupled with a highly sophisticated feature set. With power
requirements significantly lower than any other industry RTC
(as low as 15nA), these are the first semiconductor products
based on Abracon Corporation’s innovative SPOT (Subthreshold Power Optimized Technology by Ambiq Micro)
CMOS platform. The AB08XX includes on-chip oscillators to
provide minimum power consumption, full RTC functions
including battery backup and programmable counters and
alarms for timer and watchdog functions, and either an I2C or
SPI serial interface for communication with a host controller.

The AB08XX serves as a full function RTC for host processors such as microcontrollers. The AB08XX includes 3 distinct
feature groups: 1) baseline timekeeping features and 2) advanced timekeeping features, and 3) basic power management
features. Functions from each feature group may be controlled via memory mapped registers. These registers are accessed
using either an I2C serial interface (e.g., in the AB0805) or a SPI serial interface (e.g., in the AB0815).
The baseline timekeeping feature group supports the standard 32 kHz crystal (XT) oscillation mode for maximum frequency
accuracy with an ultra-low current draw of 55 nA. An extended calibration mode enables low jitter digital calibration to an
accuracy of ±2 ppm over a range of -614 ppm to +244 ppm. The baseline timekeeping feature group also includes a standard
set of counters monitoring hundredths of a second up through centuries. A complement of countdown timers and alarms may
additionally be set to initiate interrupts or resets on several of the outputs.
The advanced timekeeping feature group supports two additional oscillation modes: 1) RC oscillator mode, and 2) autocalibration mode. At only 15 nA, the temperature-compensated ±10% RC oscillator mode provides an even lower current
draw than the XT oscillator for applications with reduced frequency accuracy requirements. A proprietary calibration
algorithm allows the AB08XX to digitally tune the RC oscillator frequency with accuracy as low as ±2 ppm at a given
temperature and very low calibration jitter. In autocalibration mode, the RC oscillator is used as the primary oscillation
source and is periodically calibrated against the XT oscillator. Autocalibration may be executed every autocalibration period
(ACP) of 8.5 minutes or 17 minutes and may also be initiated via software. This mode enables average current draw of only
20 nA with frequency accuracy similar to the XT oscillator. The advanced timekeeping feature group also includes a rich set
of input and output configuration options that enables the monitoring of external interrupts (e.g., pushbutton signals), the
generation of clock outputs, and watchdog timer functionality.
Power management features built into the AB08XX enable it to operate as a backup device in both line-powered and batterypowered systems. An integrated power control module automatically detects when main power (VCC) falls below a
digitally-selectable threshold and switches to backup power (VBAT). Up to 256B of ultra-low leakage RAM enable the
storage of key parameters when operating on backup power. The AB08XX also includes digitally-tunable voltage
monitoring for brown-out detection and power-on reset.

3. AB08XX Example Applications
3.1
Battery Backed Up RTC
The most common AB08XX application is a battery backed up RTC, which maintains time and may hold data in RAM. The
AB08XX is normally powered from a system power supply, which may be a larger battery. The AB08XX is continuously
charging a supercapacitor or rechargeable battery via the internal trickle charger. When the main power supply goes away,
the AB08XX automatically switches to the VBAT supply and maintains time and RAM data at very low battery supply
currents.

of the Government, it shall constitute a material breach of contract unless consent to said termination is obtained by the Buyer from AB in
writing. In any event, the prices of all items delivered, and all items which have been furnished but not yet delivered, will be adjusted
upward to the applicable price for the lesser quantities thereby purchased. AB may terminate or cancel this order in whole or in part at any
time prior to the completion of performance by written notice to the Buyer without incurring any liability to the Buyer for breach of
contract or otherwise.
