The DS1337 serial real-time clock is a low-power
clock/calendar with two programmable time-of-day
alarms and a programmable square-wave output.
Address and data are transferred serially through an
2
I
C™ bus. The clock/calendar provides seconds,
minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year
information. The date at the end of the month is
automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31
days, including corrections for leap year. The clock
operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with
AM/PM indicator.

OSCILLATOR CIRCUIT
The DS1337 uses an external 32.768kHz crystal. The oscillator circuit does not require any external resistors or
capacitors to operate. Table 1 specifies several crystal parameters for the external crystal. Figure 1 shows a
functional schematic of the oscillator circuit. The startup time is usually less than 1 second when using a crystal
with the specified characteristics.

*The crystal, traces, and crystal input pins should be isolated from RF generating signals. Refer to
Application Note 58: Crystal Considerations for Dallas Real-Time Clocks for additional specifications.
The accuracy of the clock is dependent upon the accuracy of the crystal and the accuracy of the match between
the capacitive load of the oscillator circuit and the capacitive load for which the crystal was trimmed. Crystal
frequency drift caused by temperature shifts creates additional error. External circuit noise coupled into the
oscillator circuit can result in the clock running fast. Figure 2 shows a typical PC board layout for isolating the
crystal and oscillator from noise. Refer to Application Note 58: Crystal Considerations with Dallas Real-Time Clocks for detailed information.

ADDRESS MAP
Table 2 shows the address map for the DS1337 registers. During a multibyte access, when the address pointer
reaches the end of the register space (0Fh) it wraps around to location 00h. On an I
pointer incrementing to location 00h, the current time is transferred to a second set of registers. The time
information is read from these secondary registers, while the clock may continue to run. This eliminates the need
to re-read the registers in case of an update of the main registers during a read.

DS1337 I2C Serial Real-Time Clock
CLOCK AND CALENDAR
The time and calendar information is obtained by reading the appropriate register bytes. The RTC registers are
illustrated in Table 2. The time and calendar are set or initialized by writing the appropriate register bytes. The
contents of the time and calendar registers are in the binary-coded decimal (BCD) format.
The day-of-week register increments at midnight. Values that correspond to the day of week are user-defined but
must be sequential (i.e., if 1 equals Sunday, then 2 equals Monday, and so on.). Illogical time and date entries
result in undefined operation.
When reading or writing the time and date registers, secondary (user) buffers are used to prevent errors when the
internal registers update. When reading the time and date registers, the user buffers are synchronized to the
internal registers on any start or stop and when the register pointer rolls over to zero.
The countdown chain is reset whenever the seconds register is written. Write transfers occur on the acknowledge
pulse from the device. To avoid rollover issues, once the countdown chain is reset, the remaining time and date
registers must be written within 1 second. The 1Hz square-wave output, if enable, transitions high 500ms after the
seconds data transfer, provided the oscillator is already running.
The DS1337 can be run in either 12-hour or 24-hour mode. Bit 6 of the hours register is defined as the 12- or
24-hour mode-select bit. When high, the 12-hour mode is selected. In the 12-hour mode, bit 5 is the
with logic high being PM. In the 24-hour mode, bit 5 is the second 10-hour bit (20–23 hours). All hours values,
including the alarms, must be reinitialized whenever the 12/
the month register) is toggled when the years register overflows from 99–00.
24-hour mode bit is changed. The century bit (bit 7 of

ALARMS
The DS1337 contains two time-of-day/date alarms. Alarm 1 can be set by writing to registers 07h–0Ah. Alarm 2
can be set by writing to registers 0Bh–0Dh. The alarms can be programmed (by the INTCN bit of the control
register) to operate in two different modes—each alarm can drive its own separate interrupt output or both alarms
can drive a common interrupt output. Bit 7 of each of the time-of-day/date alarm registers are mask bits (Table 2).
When all of the mask bits for each alarm are logic 0, an alarm only occurs when the values in the timekeeping
registers 00h–06h match the values stored in the time-of-day/date alarm registers. The alarms can also be
programmed to repeat every second, minute, hour, day, or date. Table 3 shows the possible settings.
Configurations not listed in the table result in illogical operation.
The DY/
register reflects the day of the week or the date of the month. If DY/

When the RTC register values match alarm register settings, the corresponding alarm flag (A1F or A2F) bit is set
to logic 1. If the corresponding alarm interrupt enable (A1IE or A2IE) is also set to logic 1, the alarm condition
activates one of the interrupt output (

DT bits (bit 6 of the alarm day/date registers) control whether the alarm value stored in bits 0–5 of that

DS1337 I2C Serial Real-Time Clock
I2C SERIAL DATA BUS
The DS1337 supports the I2C bus protocol. A device that sends data onto the bus is defined as a transmitter and a
device receiving data as a receiver. The device that controls the message is called a master. The devices that are
controlled by the master are referred to as slaves. A master device that generates the serial clock (SCL), controls
the bus access, and generates the START and STOP conditions must control the bus. The DS1337 operates as a
slave on the I
(400kHz maximum clock rate) are defined. The DS1337 works in both modes. Connections to the bus are made
through the open-drain I/O lines SDA and SCL.
The following bus protocol has been defined (Figure 3):
· Data transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
· During data transfer, the data line must remain stable whenever the clock line is HIGH. Changes in the data
line while the clock line is HIGH are interpreted as control signals.
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have been defined:
Bus not busy: Both data and clock lines remain HIGH.
Start data transfer: A change in the state of the data line, from HIGH to LOW, while the clock is HIGH, defines a
START condition.
Stop data transfer: A change in the state of the data line, from LOW to HIGH, while the clock line is HIGH,
defines the STOP condition.
Data valid: The state of the data line represents valid data when, after a START condition, the data line is stable
for the duration of the HIGH period of the clock signal. The data on the line must be changed during the LOW
period of the clock signal. There is one clock pulse per bit of data.
Each data transfer is initiated with a START condition and terminated with a STOP condition. The number of data
bytes transferred between START and STOP conditions are not limited, and are determined by the master device.
The information is transferred byte-wise and each receiver acknowledges with a ninth bit.
Acknowledge: Each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to generate an acknowledge after the reception
of each byte. The master device must generate an extra clock pulse that is associated with this acknowledge bit.
A device that acknowledges must pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse in such a way that
the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH period of the acknowledge-related clock pulse. Of course, setup and
hold times must be taken into account. A master must signal an end of data to the slave by not generating an
acknowledge bit on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this case, the slave must leave the data
line HIGH to enable the master to generate the STOP condition.

Figure 3. Data Transfer on I2C Serial Bus
Depending upon the state of the R/W bit, two types of data transfer are possible:
1) Data transfer from a master transmitter to a slave receiver. The first byte transmitted by the master is the
slave address. Next follows a number of data bytes. The slave returns an acknowledge bit after each received
byte. Data is transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
2) Data transfer from a slave transmitter to a master receiver. The master transmits the first byte (the slave
address). The slave then returns an acknowledge bit, followed by the slave transmitting a number of data
bytes. The master returns an acknowledge bit after all received bytes other than the last byte. At the end of the
last received byte, a “not acknowledge” is returned. The master device generates all of the serial clock pulses
and the START and STOP conditions. A transfer is ended with a STOP condition or with a repeated START
condition. Since a repeated START condition is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the bus is not
released. Data is transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
The DS1337 can operate in the following two modes:
1) Slave Receiver Mode (Write Mode): Serial data and clock are received through SDA and SCL. After each
byte is received an acknowledge bit is transmitted. START and STOP conditions are recognized as the
beginning and end of a serial transfer. Address recognition is performed by hardware after reception of the
slave address and direction bit (Figure 4). The slave address byte is the first byte received after the master
generates the START condition. The slave address byte contains the 7-bit DS1337 address, which is 1101000,
followed by the direction bit (R/
the device outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. After the DS1337 acknowledges the slave address +
write bit, the master transmits a register address to the DS1337. This sets the register pointer on the DS1337.
The master may then transmit zero or more bytes of data, with the DS1337 acknowledging each byte received.
The address pointer will increment after each data byte is transferred. The master generates a STOP condition
to terminate the data write.
2) Slave Transmitter Mode (Read Mode): The first byte is received and handled as in the slave receiver mode.
However, in this mode, the direction bit indicates that the transfer direction is reversed. Serial data is
transmitted on SDA by the DS1337 while the serial clock is input on SCL. START and STOP conditions are
recognized as the beginning and end of a serial transfer (Figure 5). The slave address byte is the first byte
received after the master generates a START condition. The slave address byte contains the 7-bit DS1337
address, which is 1101000, followed by the direction bit (R/
decoding the slave address byte the device outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. The DS1337 then
begins to transmit data starting with the register address pointed to by the register pointer. If the register
pointer is not written to before the initiation of a read mode the first address that is read is the last one stored in
the register pointer. The DS1337 must receive a “not acknowledge” to end a read.

HANDLING, PC BOARD LAYOUT, AND ASSEMBLY
The DS1337C package contains a quartz tuning-fork crystal. Pick-and-place equipment may be used, but
precautions should be taken to ensure that excessive shocks are avoided. Ultrasonic cleaning should be avoided
to prevent damage to the crystal.
Avoid running signal traces under the package, unless a ground plane is placed between the package and the
signal line. All N.C. (no connect) pins must be connected to ground.
The SO package may be reflowed as long as the peak temperature does not exceed 240°C. Peak reflow
temperature (≥ 230°C) duration should not exceed 10 seconds, and the total time above 200°C should not exceed
40 seconds (30 seconds nominal). Exposure to reflow is limited to 2 times maximum.
Moisture-sensitive packages are shipped from the factory dry-packed. Handling instructions listed on the package
label must be followed to prevent damage during reflow. Refer to the IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B standard for
moisture-sensitive device (MSD) classifications.
