General Description
The bq4830Y RTC Module is a non-
volatile 262,144-bit SRAM organ-
ized as 32,768 words by 8 bits with
an integral accessible real-time
clock.
The device combines an internal
lithium battery, quartz crystal, clock
and power-fail chip, and a full
CMOS SRAM in a plastic 28-pin
DIP module. The RTC Module di-
rectly replaces industry-standard
SRAMs and also fits into many
EPRO M and E E P R OM s o ckets
without any requirement for special
write timing or limitations on the
number of write cycles.
Registers for the real-time clock and
clock calibration are located in regis-
ters 7FF8h鈥?FFFh of the memory ar-
ray.
The clock registers are dual-port
read/write SRAM locations that are
updated once per second by a clock
control circuit from the internal
clock counters. The dual-port regis-
ters allow clock updates to occur
without interrupting normal access
to the rest of the SRAM array.
The bq4830Y also contains a power
fail-detect circuit. The circuit dese-
lects the device whenever V
CC
falls
below tolerance, providing a high de-
gree of data security. The battery is
electrically isolated when shipped
from the factory to provide maxi-
mum battery capacity. The battery
remains disconnected until the first
application of V
CC
.
