32 kHz watch circuits using a silver-oxide
PCA167x series
or a 3 V lithium battery
FEATURES
• 32 kHz oscillator, amplitude regulated with excellent
frequency stability
• High immunity of the oscillator to leakage currents
• Very low current consumption; typically 150 nA
• Stop function for accurate timing
• Chopped motor pulses available
• Power-on reset for fast testing
• Various test modes for testing the mechanical parts of
the watch and the IC.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION AND TESTING
Motor pulse
The motor output pulse widths (t
) and the cycle times (tT)
P
are given in Chapter “Available types”.
Power-on reset
For correct operation of the Power-on reset the rise time of
from 0 V to 1.55 V should be less than 0.1 ms.
V
DD
All resettable flip-flops are reset. Additionally the polarity of
the first motor pulse is positive: VM1− VM2≥ 0V.
AVAILABLE TYPES
Refer to Fig.2 and to Chapters “Ordering information” and “Functional description and testing”.

Customer testing and stop mode
An output frequency of 32 Hz is provided at RESET (pin 8)
to be used for exact frequency measurement.
Connecting the RESET to V
stops the motor pulses
DD
leaving them in a HIGH impedance 3-state condition and a
32 Hz signal is produced at the TEST pin. A debounce
circuit protects against accidental stoppages due to
mechanical shock to the watch (t
= 14.7 to 123.2 ms).
DEB
Connecting RESET to VSS activates the test mode.
The motor pulse period is 31.25 ms instead of tT. Test and
stop mode are disabled by disconnecting RESET
(open-circuit).

Note
1. Connecting the battery with reversed polarity does not destroy the circuit, but in this condition a large current flows,
which will rapidly discharge the battery.
HANDLING
Inputs and outputs are protected against electrostatic discharges in normal handling. However, to be totally safe, it is
advisable to take handling precautions appropriate to handling MOS devices. Advice can be found in
