Rainbow Electronics DS1393 - Manual (Page 11)

Detailed Description
The DS1390/DS1391/DS1392/DS1393 RTCs are low-
power clocks/calendars with alarms. Address and data
are transferred serially through a 4-wire SPI interface
for the DS1390 and DS1391 and through a 3-wire inter-
face for the DS1392 and DS1393. The clocks/calendars
provide hundredths of seconds, seconds, minutes,
hours, day, date, month, and year information. The
alarm functions are performed off all timekeeping regis-
ters, allowing the user to set high resolution alarms. The
date at the end of the month is automatically adjusted
for months with fewer than 31 days, including correc-
tions for leap year. The clocks operate in either the 24-
hour or 12-hour format with an AM/PM indicator. All four
devices have a built-in temperature-compensated volt-
age reference that detects power failures and automati-
cally switches to the battery supply. Additionally, the
devices can provide trickle charging of the backup
voltage source, with selectable charging resistance
and diode voltage drops.
Operation
The DS1390/DS1391 operate as a slave device on the
SPI serial bus. The DS1392/DS1393 operate using a
3-wire synchronous serial bus. Access is obtained by
selecting the part by the CS pin (CE on DS1392/
DS1393) and clocking data into/out of the part using
the SCLK and DIN/DOUT pins (I/O on DS1392/
DS1393). Multiple-byte transfers are supported within
one CS low period (see the SPI Serial-Data Bus sec-
tion). The devices are fully accessible and data can be
written and read when V
CC is greater than V PF .
