Description
The ISL12025 device is a Real-Time Clock with
clock/calendar, two polled alarms with integrated 512x8
EEPROM configured in 16 Bytes per page format, oscillator
compensation, CPU Supervisor (Power-on Reset, Low
Voltage Sensing and Watchdog Timer) and battery backup
switch.
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.
The Real-Time Clock keeps track of time with separate
registers for Hours, Minutes, Seconds. 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 64-bit unique ID is a random numbers programmed,
verified and Locked at the factory and it is only accessible for
reading and cannot be altered by the customer.
The 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. There is a repeat mode for the alarms allowing a
periodic interrupt.
The ISL12025 device integrates CPU Supervisory functions
(POR, WDT) and Battery Switch. There is Power-On-Reset

The device offers a backup power input pin. This V
allows the device to be backed up by battery or SuperCap.

Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and out

X1, X2
The X1 and X2 pins are the input and output, respectively, of
an inverting amplifier. An external 32.768kHz quartz crystal
is used with the ISL12025 to supply a timebase for the
real-time clock. Internal compensation circuitry provides high
accuracy over the operating temperature range from
-40°C to +85°C. This oscillator compensation network can
be used to calibrate the crystal timing accuracy over
temperature either during manufacturing or with an external
temperature sensor and microcontroller for active
compensation. X2 is intended to drive a crystal only, and
should not drive any external circuit (Figure 11).
NO EXTERNAL COMPENSATION RESISTORS OR
CAPACITORS ARE NEEDED OR ARE RECOMMENDED
TO BE CONNECTED TO THE X1 AND X2 PINS.
The ISL12025 device provides 4k bits of EEPROM with eight
modes of BlockLock™ control. The BlockLock allows a safe,
secure memory for critical user and configuration data, while
allowing a large user storage area.

Real-Time Clock Operation
The Real-Time Clock (RTC) uses an external 32.768kHz
quartz crystal to maintain an accurate internal representation
of the 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

BAT
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 read takes a finite amount of time, there is a 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. RTC Register should be written ONLY with Page
Write. To avoid changing the current time by an uncompleted
write operation, write to the all 8 bytes in one write operation.
When writing the RTC registers, the new time value is
loaded into a separate buffer at the falling edge of the clock
during the Acknowledge. This new RTC value is loaded into
the RTC Register by a stop bit at 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 next “one second” clock cycle 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 non-volatile write sequences.
Accuracy of the Real-Time Clock
The accuracy of the Real-Time Clock depends on the
accuracy 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
load-capacitance to tune oscillator frequency from -34ppm to
+80ppm when using a 12.5pF load crystal. For more detailed
information see the “Application Section” on page 21.
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 2. 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 three
step process (see “Writing to the Clock/Control Registers” on
page 13.)
The CCR is divided into 6 sections. These are:
1. Alarm 0 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
2. Alarm 1 (8 bytes; non-volatile)
3. Control (5 bytes; non-volatile)
4. Unique ID (8 bytes, non-volatile)
5. Real-Time Clock (8 bytes; volatile)
6. Status (1 byte; volatile)
Each register is read and written through buffers. The nonvolatile 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. A read or write can begin at any address in the
CCR.
It is not necessary to set the RWEL bit prior to writing the
status register. Section 5 (status register) supports a singl e
byte read or write only. Continued reads or writes from this
section terminates the operation.
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 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.
Real-Time Clock Registers (Volatile)
SC, MN, HR, DT, MO, YR: Clock/Calendar Registers
These registers depict BCD representations of the time. As
such, 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.

DW: Day of the Week Register
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’.
Y2K: Year 2000 Register
Can have value 19 or 20. As of the date of the introduction of
this device, there would be no real use for the value 19 in a
true real-time clock, however.
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 12-hour 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.
Status Register (SR) (Volatile)
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 power
status and two alarm bits. This register is separate from both
the array and the Clock/Control Registers (CCR).

OSCF: Oscillator Fail Indicator
This bit is set to “1” if the oscillator is not operating. The bit is
set to “0” only if the oscillator is functioning. This bit is read
only, and is set/reset by hardware.
RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch
This bit is a volatile latch that powers up in the LOW
(disabled) state. The RWEL bit must be set to “1” prior to any
writes to the Clock/Control Registers. Writes to RWEL bit do
not cause a non-volatile 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.
WEL: Write Enable Latch
The WEL bit controls the access to the CCR 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 address will be ignored, although acknowledgment
is still issued. 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 non-volatile write cycle, so the device is
ready for the next operation immediately after the stop
condition.

This bit is set to a ‘1’ after a total power failure. This is a read
only bit that is set internally when the device powers up after
having lost all power to the device (both V

The alarm register bytes are set up identical to the RTC
register bytes, except that the MSB of each byte functions as
an enable bit (enable = “1”). These enable bits specify which
alarm registers (seconds, minutes, etc.) are used to make
the comparison. Note that there is no alarm byte for year.
The alarm function works as a comparison between the
alarm registers and the RTC registers. As the RTC
advances, the alarm will be triggered once a match occurs
between the alarm registers and the RTC registers. Any one
alarm register, multiple registers, or all registers can be
enabled for a match. See “Device Operation” on page 13
and “Application Section” on page 21 for more information.

The Block Protect Bits, BP2, BP1 and BP0, determine which

Unique ID Registers
There are eight register bytes for storing the device ID.
(Address 0020h to 0027h). Each device contains these
bytes to provide a unique 64-bit ID programmed and tested
in the factory before shipment. These registers are readonly, intended for serialization of end equipment, and cannot
be changed or overwritten.
Device Operation
Writing to the Clock/Control Registers
Changing any of the bits of the clock/control registers
requires the following steps:
1. Write a 02h to the St atus Register to set the Write Enable
Latch (WEL). This is a volatile operation, so there is no
delay after the write. (Operation preceded by a start and
ended with a stop).
2. 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 proceeded by a start and ended with a stop).
Write all eight bytes to the RTC registers, or one byte to the
SR, or one to five bytes to the control registers. 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 EEPROM registers in the CCR
will initiate a non-volatile write cycle and will take up to 20ms
to complete. A write to the RTC registers (SRAM) will require
much shorter cycle time (t = t
have no effect. The RWEL bit is reset by the completion of a
write to the CCR, 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.
Alarm Operation
Since the alarm works as a comparison between the alarm
registers and the RTC registers, it is ideal for notifying a host
processor of a particular time event and trigger some action
as a result. The host can be notified by polling the Status
Register (SR) Alarm bits. These two volatile bits (AL1 for
). Writes to undefined areas
BUF

Alarm 1 and AL0 for Alarm 0), indicate if an alarm has
happened. The AL1 and AL0 bits in the status register are
reset by the falling edge of the eighth clock of status register
read.
There are two alarm operation modes: Single Event and
periodic Interrupt Mode:
1. Single Event Mode is enabled by setting the AL0E or
AL1E bit to “1”, the IM bit to “0”, and disabling the
frequency output. This mode permits a one-time match
between the alarm registers and the RTC registers. Once
this match occurs, the AL0 or AL1 bit is set to “1”. Once
the AL0 or AL1 bit is read, this will automatically resets it.
Both Alarm registers can be set at the same time to
trigger alarms. Polling the SR will reveal which alarm has
been set.
2. Interrupt Mode (or “Pulsed Interrupt Mode” or PIM) is
enabled by setting the AL0E or AL1E bit to “1” the IM bit
to “1”, and disabling the frequency output. If both AL0E
and AL1E bits are set to 1, then only the AL0E PIM alarm
will function (AL0E overrides AL1E). This means that
once the Interrupt Mode alarm is set, it will continue to
alarm for each occurring match of the alarm and present
time. This mode is convenient for hourly or daily
hardware interrupts in microcontroller applications such
as security cameras or utility meter reading. Interrupt
Mode CANNOT be used for general periodic alarms,
however, since a specific time period cannot be
programmed for interrupt, only matches to a specific time
of day. The Interrupt Mode is only stopped by disabling
the IM bit or the Alarm Enable bits.
Writing to the Alarm Registers
The Alarm Registers are non-volatile but require special
attention to insure a proper non-volatile write takes place.
Specifically , byte writes to individual registers are good for all
but registers 0006h and 0000Eh, which are the DWA0 and
DWA1 registers, respectively. Those registers will require a
special page write for nonvolatile storage. The
recommended page write sequences are as follows:
1. 16-byte page writes: The best way to write or update the
Alarm Registers is to perform a 16-byte write beginning at
address 0001h (MNA0) and wrapping around and ending
at address 0000h (SCA0). This will insure that nonvolatile storage takes place. This means that the code
must be designed so that the Alarm0 data is written
starting with Minutes register, and then all the Alarm1
data, with the last byte being the Alarm0 Seconds (the
page ends at the Alarm1 Y2k register and then wraps
around to address 0000h).
Alternatively, the 16-byte page write could start with
address 0009h, wrap around and finish with address
0008h. Note that any page write ending at address
0007h or 000Fh (the highest byte in each Alarm) will not
trigger a nonvolatile write, so wrapping around or
overlapping to the following Alarm's Seconds register is
advised.
2. Other nonvolatile writes: It is possible to do writes of
less than an entire page, but the final byte must always
be addresses 0000h through 0004h or 0008h though
000Ch to trigger a nonvolatile write. Writing to those
blocks of 5 bytes sequentially, or individually , will trigger a
nonvolatile write. If the DWA0 or DWA1 registers need to
be set, then enough bytes will need to be written to
overlap with the other Alarm register and trigger the
nonvolatile write. For Example, if the DWA0 register is
being set, then the code can start with a multiple byte
write beginning at address 0006h, and then write 3 bytes
ending with the SCA1 register as follows:
Addr Name
0006h DWA0
0007h Y2K0
0008h SCA1
If the Alarm1 is used, SCA1 would need to have the correct
data written.
Power Control Operation
The power control circuit accepts a VDD and a V
Many types of batteries can be used with Intersil RTC
products. For example, 3.0V or 3.6V Lithium batteries are
appropriate, and battery sizes are available that can power
an Intersil RTC device for up to 10 years. Another option is
to use a SuperCap for applications where V

Power-On Reset
Application of power to the ISL12025 activates a
Power-On-Reset Circuit that pulls the RESET
pin active.
This signal provides several benefits.
- It prevents the system microprocessor from starting to
operate with insufficient voltage.
- It prevents the processor from operating prior to
stabilization of the oscillator.
- It allows time for an FPGA to download its configuration
prior to initialization of the circuit.
- It prevents communication to the EEPROM, greatly
reducing the likelihood of data corruption on power-up.
When V

Watchdog Timer Ope ration
The watchdog timer timeout period is selectable. By writing a
value to WD1 and WD0, the watchdog timer can be set to 3
different time out periods or off. When the Watchdog timer is
set to off, the watchdog circuit is configured for low power
operation. See Table 6.

Watchdog Timer Restart
The Watchdog Timer is started by a falli ng edge of SDA
when the SCL line is high (START condition). The start
signal restarts the watchdog timer counter, resetting the
period of the counter back to the maximum. If another
START fails to be detected prior to the watchdog timer
expiration, then the RESET
pin becomes active for one reset
time out period. In the event that the start signal occurs
during a reset time out period, the start will have no effect.
When using a single START to refresh watchdog timer, a
STOP condition should be followed to reset the device back
to Standby Power Mode. See Figure 3.

When the LVR signal is active, unless the part has been
switched into the Battery Backup Mode
, the completion of an
in-progress non-volatile write cycle is unaffected, allowing a
non-volatile write to continue as long as possible (down to
the Reset Valid Voltage). The LVR signal, when active, will
terminate any in-progress communications to the device and
prevents new commands from disrupting any current write
operations. See “I

C Communications During Battery
Backup and LVR Operation” on page 23.
Serial Communication
Interface Conventions
The device supports the I2C Protocol.
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 16.
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 17.
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 17.
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. See Figure 18.
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 not acknowledge if the slave
address byte is incorrect.
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 Power 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

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. See
Figure 19.
After loading the entire Slave Address Byte from the SDA
bus, the ISL12025 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.
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 power-up 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 19.
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 i n both places.
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” on page 1 3.) Upon receipt of each
address byte, the ISL12025 responds with an acknowledge.
After receiving both address bytes the ISL12025 awaits the
eight bits of data. After receiving the 8 data bits, the
ISL12025 again responds with an acknowledge. The master
then terminates the transfer by generating a stop condition.
The ISL12025 then begins an internal write cycle of the data
to the non-volatile 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 20.
A write to a protected block of memory is ignored, but will still
receive an acknowledge. At the end of the write command,
the ISL12025 will not initiate an internal write cycle, and will
continue to ACK commands.
Byte writes to all of the nonvolatile registers are allowed,
except the DWAn registers which require multiple byte writes
or page writes to trigger nonvolatile writes. See the Device
Operation section for more information.
Page Write
The ISL12025 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 15 more bytes to
the memory array and up to 7 more bytes to the clock/control
registers. The RTC registers require a page write (8 bytes),
individual register writes are not allowed. (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”
on page 13.)
After the receipt of each byte, the ISL12025 responds with
an acknowledge, and the address is internally incremented
by one. The address pointer remains at the last address byte
written. 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 16 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 10 of the memory and loads 15 bytes, then
the first 6 bytes are written to addresses 10 through 15, and
the last 6 bytes are written to columns 0 through 5.
Afterwards, the address counter would point to location 6 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. See Figure 21.The master terminates the Data Byte
loading by issuing a stop condition, which causes the
ISL12025 to begin the non-volatile write cycle. As with the
byte write operation, all inputs are disabled until completion
of the internal write cycle. See Figure 22 for the address,
acknowledge, and data transfer sequence.
Stops and Write Modes
Stop conditions that terminate write operations must be sent
by the master after sending at least 1 full data byte and its
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
ISL12025 resets itself without performing the write. The
contents of the array are not affected.

Acknowledge Polling
Disabling of the inputs during non-volatile 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 ISL12025 initiates the
internal non-volatile write cycle. Acknowledge polling can
begin immediately. To do this, the master issues a start
condition followed by the Memory Array Slave Address Byte
for a write or read operation (AEh or AFh). If the ISL12025 is
still busy with the non-volatile write cycle, then no ACK will
be returned. When the ISL12025 has completed the write
operation, an ACK is returned and the host can proceed with
the read or write operation. See the flow chart in
Figure 24. Note: Do not use the CCR Slave byte (DEh or
DFh) for Acknowledge Polling.

Current Address Read
Internally the ISL12025 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-on
reset can download the entire contents of memory starting at
the first location. Upon receipt of the Slave Address Byte

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
Random read operations allow the master to access any
location in the ISL12025. Prior to issuing the Slave Address
Byte with the R/W
bit set to zero, the master must first
perform a “dummy” write operation.
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. See Figure 25 for the address,
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 25. The ISL12025 then goes
into Standby Power Mode after the stop and all bus 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.
Sequential Read
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 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 ISL12025 continues to output data
for each acknowledge received. See Figure 26 for the
acknowledge and data transfer sequence.

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 7 summarizes these parameters.
Table 8 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)
example, the turnover temperature is typically +25°C, and a
peak drift of >110ppm occurs at the temperature extremes of

-40 and +85°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. In-circuit 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, 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.
For more detailed operation, see Intersil’s application note
AN154 on Intersil’s website at www.intersil.com.
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. Figure 27 shows a suggested layout for the
ISL12025 or ISL12027 devices.
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 V
pin of the chip is mandatory,
DD
with a solid connection to ground (Figure 27).
Oscillator Measurements
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
5s. 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 usable 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).
FIGURE 27. SUGGESTED LAYOUT FOR INTERSIL RTC IN SO-8
22
The best way to analyze the RTC circuit is to power it up and
read the real-time clock as time advances. Alternatively the
frequency can be checked by setting an alarm for each
minute. Using the pulse interrupt mode setting, the once-perminute interrupt functions as an indication of proper
oscillation.
Backup Battery Operation
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 V

supercapacitor used, backup time can last from a few days

Do not use the diode to charge a battery (especially lithium

There are two possible modes for battery backup operation,
Standard and Legacy Mode. In S tandard Mode, there are no
operational concerns when switching over to battery backup
since all other devices functions are disabled. Battery drain
is minimal in Standard Mode, and return to Normal V
powered operations predictable. In Legacy modes, the V

Operation in Battery Backup Mode and LVR is affected by
the BSW and SBIB bits as described previously. These bits
