General Description
The DS1374 is a 32-bit binary counter designed to contin-
uously count time in seconds. An additional counter gen-
erates a periodic alarm or serves as a watchdog timer. If
disabled, this counter can be used as 3 bytes of non-
volatile (NV) RAM. Separate output pins are provided for
an interrupt and a square wave at one of four selectable
frequencies. A precision temperature-compensated refer-
ence and comparator circuit monitor the status of V
CC
to
detect power failures, provide a reset output, and auto-
matically switch to the backup supply when necessary.
Additionally, the reset pin is monitored as a pushbutton
input for externally generating a reset. The device is pro-
grammed serially through an I
2
C™ serial interface.
