SIGNAL DESCRIPTIONS

The following paragraphs describe the function of each pin.

V

CC

V

CC

is a +5V input supply. Communication with the DS1678 can take place only when V

CC

is

connected to a +5V supply.

V

BAT

Battery input for standard lithium cell or other energy source. All functions of the DS1678 with

the exception of the serial interface circuitry are powered by V

BAT

when V

CC

< V

BAT

. All functions are

powered by V

CC

when V

CC

> V

BAT

. If a battery or other energy source is not used, V

BAT

should be

connected directly to ground. UL recognized to ensure against reverse charging current when used in
conjunction with a lithium battery.

.

GND – Ground.

SCL (2-Wire Serial Clock Input) – The SCL pin is the serial clock input for the 2-wire synchronous
communications channel. The SCL pin is an open drain input, which requires an external pull-up resistor.

SDA (2-Wire Input/Output) – The SDA pin is the data input/output (I/O) signal for the 2-wire
synchronous communications channel. The SDA pin is an open drain I/O, which requires an external
pull-up resistor.
