power clock/date device with two programmable time-
of-day alarms and a programmable square-wave
output. Address and data are transferred serially
through an I2C* bus. The clock/date 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. The DS1339 has a built-in power-
sense circuit that detects power failures and
automatically switches to the backup supply,

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The DS1339 serial real-time clock (RTC) is a low-power clock/date device with two programmable time-of-day
alarms and a programmable square-wave output. Address and data are transferred serially through an I2C bus.
The clock/date 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. The DS1339 has a built-in power-
sense circuit that detects power failures and automatically switches to the backup supply, maintaining time and
date operation.
OPERATION
The DS1339 operates as a slave device on the serial bus. Access is obtained by implementing a START condition
and providing a device identification code followed by data. Subsequent registers can be accessed sequentially
until a STOP condition is executed. The device is fully accessible and data can be written and read when VCC is
greater than VPF. However, when VCC falls below VPF, the internal clock registers are blocked from any access. If
VPF is less than VBACKUP, the device power is switched from VCC to VBACKUP when VCC drops below VPF. If VPF is
greater than VBACKUP, the device power is switched from VCC to VBACKUP when VCC drops below VBACKUP. The
registers are maintained from the VBACKUP source until VCC is returned to nominal levels. The block diagram in
Figure 3 shows the main elements of the serial real-time clock.
OSCILLATOR CIRCUIT
The DS1339 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 4 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.

CLOCK ACCURACY
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. Additional
error is added by crystal frequency drift caused by temperature shifts. External circuit noise coupled into the
oscillator circuit may result in the clock running fast. Figure 5 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
Figure 6 shows the address map for the DS1339 registers. During a multibyte access, when the address pointer
reaches the end of the register space (10h), it wraps around to location 00h. On an I2C START, STOP, or address
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.

TIME AND DATE OPERATION
The time and date information is obtained by reading the appropriate register bytes. Figure 6 shows the RTC
registers. The time and date are set or initialized by writing the appropriate register bytes. The contents of the time
and date registers are in the BCD format. The DS1339 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 AM/PM bit with logic high being PM. In the 24-hour mode, bit 5 is the second 10-hour bit
(20 to 23 hours). All hours values, including the alarms, must be re-entered whenever the 12/24-hour mode bit is
changed. The century bit (bit 7 of the month register) is toggled when the years register overflows from 99 to 00.
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 address pointer rolls over to zero. The countdown chain is
reset whenever the seconds register is written. Write transfers occurs 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 one second. If enabled, the 1Hz square-wave output transitions high 500ms after the seconds data transfer,
provided the oscillator is already running.
ALARMS
The DS1339 contains two time of day/date alarms. Alarm 1 can be set by writing to registers 07h to 0Ah. Alarm 2
can be set by writing to registers 0Bh to 0Dh. The alarms can be programmed (by the Alarm Enable and INTCN
bits of the Control Register) to activate the SQW/INT output on an alarm match condition. Bit 7 of each of the time
of day/date alarm registers are mask bits (Table 2). When all the mask bits for each alarm are logic 0, an alarm
only occurs when the values in the timekeeping registers 00h to 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 2 shows the possible settings. Configurations not listed in the table result in illogical operation.
The DY/DT bits (bit 6 of the alarm day/date registers) control whether the alarm value stored in bits 0 to 5 of that
register reflects the day of the week or the date of the month. If DY/DT is written to a logic 0, the alarm is the result
of a match with date of the month. If DY/DT is written to a logic 1, the alarm is the result of a match with day of the
week.
The device checks for an alarm match once per second. 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 and the INTCN bit is set to logic 1, the alarm condition activates the
SQW/INT) signal. If the BBSQI bit is set to 1, the INT output activates while the part is being powered by VBACKUP.
The alarm output remains active until the alarm flag is cleared by the user.

SPECIAL-PURPOSE REGISTERS
The DS1339 has two additional registers (control and status) that control the RTC, alarms, and square-wave
output.
CONTROL REGISTER (0Eh)
BIT 7 BIT 6 BIT 5 BIT 4 BIT 3 BIT 2 BIT 1 BIT 0
EOSC 0 BBSQI RS2 RS1 INTCN A2IE A1IE
Bit 7: Enable Oscillator (EOSC). This bit when set to logic 0 starts the oscillator. When this bit is set to a logic 1,
the oscillator is stopped. This bit is enabled (logic 0) when power is first applied.
Bit 5: Battery-Backed Square-Wave and Interrupt Enable (BBSQI). This bit when set to a logic 1 enables the
square wave or interrupt output when VCC is absent and the DS1339 is being powered by the VBACKUP pin. When
BBSQI is a logic 0, the SQW/INT pin goes high impedance when VCC falls below the power-fail trip point. This bit is
disabled (logic 0) when power is first applied.
Bits 4 and 3: Rate Select (RS2 and RS1). These bits control the frequency of the square-wave output when the
square wave has been enabled. The table below shows the square-wave frequencies that can be selected with the
RS bits. These bits are both set to logic 1 (32kHz) when power is first applied.

Bit 2: Interrupt Control (INTCN). This bit controls the relationship between the two alarms and the interrupt output
pins. When the INTCN bit is set to logic 1, a match between the timekeeping registers and the alarm 1 or alarm 2
registers activate the SQW/INT pin (provided that the alarm is enabled). When the INTCN bit is set to logic 0, a
square wave is output on the SQW/INT pin. This bit is set to logic 0 when power is first applied.
Bit 1: Alarm 2 Interrupt Enable (A2IE). When set to a logic 1, this bit permits the Alarm 2 Flag (A2F) bit in the
status register to assert SQW/INT (when INTCN = 1). When the A2IE bit is set to logic 0 or INTCN is set to logic 0,
the A2F bit does not initiate an interrupt signal. The A2IE bit is disabled (logic 0) when power is first applied.
Bit 0: Alarm 1 Interrupt Enable (A1IE). When set to logic 1, this bit permits the Alarm 1 Flag (A1F) bit in the
status register to assert SQW/INT (when INTCN = 1). When the A1IE bit is set to logic 0 or INTCN is set to logic 0,
the A1F bit does not initiate an interrupt signal. The A1IE bit is disabled (logic 0) when power is first applied.

Bit 7: Oscillator Stop Flag (OSF). A logic 1 in this bit indicates that the oscillator either is stopped or was stopped
for some period of time and may be used to judge the validity of the clock and date data. This bit is edge triggered
and is set to logic 1 when the oscillator stops. The following are examples of conditions that can cause the OSF bit
to be set:
1) The first time power is applied.
2) The voltage on both VCC and VBACKUP are insufficient to support oscillation.
3) The
EOSC bit is turned off.
4) External influences on the crystal (e.g., noise, leakage, etc.).
This bit remains at logic 1 until written to logic 0. This bit can only be written to a logic 0.
Bit 1: Alarm 2 Flag (A2F). A logic 1 in the Alarm 2 Flag bit indicates that the time matched the alarm 2 registers. If
the A2IE bit is a logic 1 and the INTCN bit is set to a logic 1, the SQW/INT pin is also asserted. A2F is cleared
when written to logic 0. This bit can only be written to logic 0. Attempting to write to logic 1 leaves the value
unchanged.
Bit 0: Alarm 1 Flag (A1F). A logic 1 in the Alarm 1 Flag bit indicates that the time matched the alarm 1 registers. If
the A1IE bit is a logic 1 and the INTCN bit is set to a logic 1, the SQW/INT pin is also asserted. A1F is cleared
when written to logic 0. This bit can only be written to logic 0. Attempting to write to logic 1 leaves the value
unchanged.

TRICKLE CHARGER REGISTER (10h)
The simplified schematic in Figure 7 shows the basic components of the trickle charger. The trickle-charge select
(TCS) bits (bits 4 to 7) control the selection of the trickle charger. To prevent accidental enabling, only a pattern on
1010 enables the trickle charger. All other patterns disable the trickle charger. The trickle charger is disabled when
power is first applied. The diode-select (DS) bits (bits 2 and 3) select whether or not a diode is connected between
VCC and VBACKUP. The ROUT bits (bits 0 and 1) select the value of the resistor connected between VCC and VBACKUP.
Table 3 shows the bit values.

The user determines diode and resistor selection according to the maximum current desired for battery or super
cap charging. The maximum charging current can be calculated as illustrated in the following example. Assume
that a 3.3V system power supply is applied to VCC and a super cap is connected to VBACKUP. Also assume that the
trickle charger has been enabled with a diode and resistor R2 between VCC and VBACKUP. The maximum current IMAX
would therefore be calculated as follows:
IMAX = (3.3V - diode drop) / R2 » (3.3V - 0.7V) / 2kW » 1.3mA
As the super cap or battery charges, the voltage drop between VCC and VBACKUP decreases and therefore the
charge current decreases.

I2C SERIAL DATA BUS
The DS1339 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. The bus must be controlled by a master device that generates
the serial clock (SCL), controls the bus access, and generates the START and STOP conditions. The DS1339
operates as a slave on the I2C bus. Within the bus specifications, a standard mode (100kHz cycle rate) and a fast
mode (400kHz cycle rate) are defined. The DS1339 works in both modes. Connections to the bus are made via the
open-drain I/O lines SDA and SCL.
The following bus protocol has been defined (Figure 8):
§ 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 is not limited, and is 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 8. 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 first byte (the slave address) is transmitted
by the master. The slave then returns an acknowledge bit. This is 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 DS1339 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 9). The slave address byte is the first byte received after the START
condition is generated by the master. The slave address byte contains the 7-bit DS1339 address, which is
1101000, followed by the direction bit (R/W), which is 0 for a write. After receiving and decoding the slave
address byte the slave outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. After the DS1339 acknowledges the slave
address + write bit, the master transmits a register address to the DS1339. This sets the register pointer on the
DS1339, with the DS1339 acknowledging the transfer. The master may then transmit zero or more bytes of
DS1339 I2C Serial Real-Time Clock

data, with the DS1339 acknowledging each byte received. The address pointer increments 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 DS1339 while the serial clock is input on SCL. START and STOP conditions are
recognized as the beginning and end of a serial transfer (Figure 10). The slave address byte is the first byte
received after the START condition is generated by the master. The slave address byte contains the 7-bit
DS1339 address, which is 1101000, followed by the direction bit (R/W), which is 1 for a read. After receiving
and decoding the slave address byte the slave outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. The DS1339 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 address pointer is incremented after each byte is transferred. The DS1339 must
receive a “not acknowledge” to end a read.
