General Description
The bq4850Y RTC Module is a non-
volatile 4,194,304-bit SRAM organ-
ized as 524,288 words by 8 bits with
an integral accessible real-time
clock.
The device combines an internal lith-
ium battery, quartz crystal, clock and
power-fail chip, and a full CMOS
SRAM in a plastic 32-pin DIP mod-
ule. The RTC Module directly re-
places industry-standard SRAMs and
also fits into many EPROM and EE-
PROM sockets without any require-
ment for special write timing or limi-
tations on the number of write cycles.
Registers for the real-time clock,
alarm and other special functions
are located in registers 7FFF8h鈥?/div>
7FFFFh of the memory array.
The clock and alarm registers are
dual-port read/write SRAM loca-
tions that are updated once per sec-
ond by a clock control circuit from
the internal clock counters. The
dual-port registers allow clock up-
dates to occur without interrupting
normal access to the rest of the
SRAM array.
The bq4850Y 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
.
