LV8572A Low Voltage Real Time Clock (RTC)  
General Description  
l
The LV8572A is intended for use in microprocessor based  
systems where information is required for multi-tasking, data  
logging or general time of day/date information. This device  
is implemented in low voltage silicon gate microCMOS tech-  
nology to provide low standby power in battery back-up en-  
vironments. The circuit’s architecture is such that it looks  
like a contiguous block of memory or I/O ports. The address  
space is organized as 2 software selectable pages of 32  
bytes. This includes the Control Registers, the Clock Coun-  
ters, the Alarm Compare RAM, and the Time Save RAM.  
Any of the RAM locations that are not being used for their  
intended purpose may be used as general purpose CMOS  
RAM.

Pin Description  
CS, RD, WR (Inputs): These pins interface to mP control  
lines. The CS pin is an active low enable for the read and  
write operations. Read and Write pins are also active low  
and enable reading or writing to the RTC. All three pins are  
disabled when power failure is detected. However, if a read  
or write is in progress at this time, it will be allowed to com-  
plete its cycle.  
A0A4 (Inputs): These 5 pins are for register selection.  
They individually control which location is to be accessed.  
These inputs are disabled when power failure is detected.  
OSC IN (Input): OSC OUT (Output): These two pins are  
used to connect the crystal to the internal parallel resonant  
oscillator. The oscillator is always running when power is  
applied to V and V , and the correct crystal select bits in  
BB CC  
the Real Time Mode Register have been set.  
MFO (Output): The multi-function output can be used as a  
second interrupt output for interrupting the mP. This pin can  
also provide an output for the oscillator. The MFO output is  
configured as push-pull, active high for normal or single  
power supply operation and as an open drain during stand-

Functional Description  
The LV8572A contains a fast access real time clock, inter-  
rupt control logic, power fail detect logic, and CMOS RAM.  
All functions of the RTC are controlled by a set of seven  
registers. A simplified block diagram that shows the major  
functional blocks is given in Figure 1.  
The memory map of the RTC is shown in the memory ad-  
dressing table. The memory map consists of two 31 byte  
pages with a main status register that is common to both  
pages. A control bit in the Main Status Register is used to  
select either page. Figure  
2 shows the basic concept.  
Page 0 contains all the clock timer functions, while page 1  
has scratch pad RAM. The control registers are split into  
two separate blocks to allow page 1 to be used entirely as  
scratch pad RAM. Again a control bit in the Main Status  
Register is used to select either control register block.  
The blocks are described in the following sections:  
1. Real Time Clock  
2. Oscillator Prescaler  
3. Interrupt Logic  
4. Power Failure Logic  
5. Additional Supply Management

Save Enable bit (D7) of the Time Save Control Register, and  
then to write a zero. Writing a one into this bit will enable the  
clock contents to be duplicated in the Time Save RAM.  
Changing the bit from a one to a zero will freeze and store  
the contents of the clock in Time Save RAM. The time then  
can be read without concern for clock rollover, since inter-  
nal logic takes care of synchronization of the clock. Be-  
cause only the bits used by the clock counters will be  
latched, the Time Save RAM should be cleared prior to use  
to ensure that random data stored in the unused bits do not  
confuse the host microprocessor. This bit can also provide  
time save at power failure, see the Additional Supply Man-  
agement Functions section. With the Time Save Enable bit  
at a logical 0, the Time Save RAM may be used as RAM if  
the latched read function is not necessary.

and V  
may be applied in any sequence. In order for  
CC  
BB  
the power fail circuitry to function correctly, whenever power  
is off, the V pin must see a path to ground through a  
CC  
maximum of 1 MX. The user should be aware that the con-  
trol registers will contain random data. The first task to be  
carried out in an initialization routine is to start the oscillator  
by writing to the crystal select bits in the Real Time Mode  
Register. If the LV8572A is configured for single supply  
mode, an extra 50 mA may be consumed until the crystal  
select bits are programmed. The user should also ensure  
that the RTC is not in test mode (see register descriptions).  
REAL TIME CLOCK FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
As shown in Figure 2, the clock has 10 bytes of counters,  
which count from 1/100 of a second to years. Each counter  
counts in BCD and is synchronously clocked. The count se-  
quence of the individual byte counters within the clock is  
shown later in Table VII. Note that the day of week, day of  
month, day of year, and month counters all roll over to 1.  
The hours counter in 12 hour mode rolls over to 1 and the  
AM/PM bit toggles when the hours rolls over to 12  
INITIALIZING AND WRITING TO THE  
CALENDAR-CLOCK  
Upon initial application of power to the RTC or when making  
time corrections, the time must be written into the clock. To  
correctly write the time to the counters, the clock would  
normally be stopped by writing the Start/Stop bit in the Real  
Time Mode Register to a zero. This stops the clock from  
counting and disables the carry circuitry. When initializing  
the clock’s Real Time Mode Register, it is recommended  
that first the various mode bits be written while maintaining  
the Start/Stop bit reset, and then writing to the register a  
second time with the Start/Stop bit set.  
e
counter.  
e
1). The AM/PM bit is bit D7 in the hours  
(AM  
0, PM  
All other counters roll over to 0. Also note that the day of  
year counter is 12 bits long and occupies two addresses.  
Upon initial application of power the counters will contain  
random information.  
The above method is useful when the entire clock is being  
corrected. If one location is being updated the clock need  
not be stopped since this will reset the prescaler, and time  
will be lost. An ideal example of this is correcting the hours  
for daylight savings time. To write to the clock ‘‘on the fly’’  
the best method is to wait for the 1/100 of a second period-  
ic interrupt. Then wait an additional 16 ms, and then write  
the data to the clock.  
READING THE CLOCK: VALIDATED READ  
Since clocking of the counter occurs asynchronously to  
reading of the counter, it is possible to read the counter  
while it is being incremented (rollover). This may result in an  
incorrect time reading. Thus to ensure a correct reading of  
the entire contents of the clock (or that part of interest), it  
must be read without a clock rollover occurring. In general  
this can be done by checking a rollover bit. On this chip the  
periodic interrupt status bits can serve this function. The  
following program steps can be used to accomplish this.  
PRESCALER/OSCILLATOR FUNCTIONAL  
DESCRIPTION  
Feeding the counter chain is a programmable prescaler  
which divides the crystal oscillator frequency to 32 kHz and  
further to 100 Hz for the counter chain (see Figure 3 ). The  
crystal frequency that can be selected are: 32 kHz, 32.768  
kHz, 4.9152 MHz, and 4.194304 MHz.  
1. Initialize program for reading clock.  
2. Dummy read of periodic status bit to clear it.  
3. Read counter bytes and store.  
4. Read rollover bit, and test it.  
5. If rollover occured go to 3.  
6. If no rollover, done.  
To detect the rollover, individual periodic status bits can be  
polled. The periodic bit chosen should be equal to the high-  
est frequency counter register to be read. That is if only  
SECONDS through HOURS counters are read, then the  
SECONDS periodic bit should be used.  
READING THE CLOCK: INTERRUPT DRIVEN  
Enabling the periodic interrupt mask bits cause interrupts  
just as the clock rolls over. Enabling the desired update rate  
and providing an interrupt service routine that executes in  
less than 10 ms enables clock reading without checking for  
a rollover.

READING THE CLOCK: LATCHED READ  
Another method to read the clock that does not require  
checking the rollover bit is to write a one into the Time

Functional Description (Continued)  
The oscillator is programmed via the Real Time Mode Reg-  
ister to operate at various frequencies. The crystal oscillator  
is designed to offer optimum performance at each frequen-  
cy. Thus, at 32.768 kHz the oscillator is configured as a low  
frequency and low power oscillator. At the higher frequen-  
cies the oscillator inverter is reconfigured. In addition to the  
inverter, the oscillator feedback bias resistor is included on  
chip, as shown in Figure 4. The oscillator input may be driv-  
en from an external source if desired. Refer to test mode  
application note for details. The oscillator stability is en-  
hanced through the use of an on chip regulated power sup-  
ply.  
INTERRUPT LOGIC FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
The RTC has the ability to coordinate processor timing ac-  
tivities. To enhance this, an interrupt structure has been im-  
plemented which enables several types of events to cause  
interrupts. Interrupts are controlled via two Control Regis-  
ters in block 1 and two Status Registers in block 0. (See  
Register Description for notes on paging and also Figure 5  
and Table I.)  
The interrupts are enabled by writing a one to the appropri-  
ate bits in Interrupt Control Register 0 and/or 1.  
TABLE I. Registers that are  
Applicable to Interrupt Control  
The typical range of trimmer capacitor (as shown in Oscilla-  
tor Circuit DiagramFigure 4, and in the typical application) at  
the oscillator input pin is suggested only to allow accurate  
tuning of the oscillator. This range is based on a typical  
printed circuit board layout and may have to be changed  
depending on the parasitic capacitance of the printed circuit  
board or fixture being used. In all cases, the load capaci-  
tance specified by the crystal manufacturer (nominal value  
11 pF for the 32.768 crystal) is what determines proper os-  
cillation. This load capcitance is the series combination of  
capacitance on each side of the crystal (with respect to  
ground).

The Interrupt Status Flag D0, in the Main Status Register,  
indicates the state of INTR and MFO outputs. It is set when  
either output becomes active and is cleared when all RTC  
interrupts have been cleared and no further interrupts are  
pending (i.e., both INTR and MFO are returned to their inac-  
tive state). This flag enables the RTC to be rapidly polled by  
the mP to determine the source of an interrupt in a wiredÐ  
OR interrupt system. (The Interrupt Status Flag provides a  
true reflection of all conditions routed to the external pins.)  
Status for the interrupts are provided by the Main Status  
Register and the Periodic Flag Register. Bits D1D5 of the  
Main Status Register are the main interrupt bits.  
These register bits will be set when their associated timing  
events occur. Enabled Alarm comparisons that occur will  
set its Main Status Register bit to a one. However, an exter-  
nal interrupt will only be generated if the Alarm interrupt  
enable bit is set (see Figure 5 ).  
Disabling the periodic interrupts will mask the Main Status  
Register periodic bit, but not the Periodic Flag Register bits.  
The Power Fail Interrupt bit is set when the interrupt is en-  
abled and a power fail event has occurred, and is not reset  
until the power is restored. If all interrupt enable bits are 0  
no interrupt will be asserted. However, status still can be  
read from the Main Status Register in a polled fashion (see  
Figure 5 ).

Interrupts Fall Into Three Categories:  
Figure 5. These flags constantly sense the periodic signals  
and may be used whether or not interrupts are enabled.  
These flags are cleared by any read or write operation per-  
formed on this register.  
1. The Alarm Compare Interrupt: Issued when the value in  
the time compared RAM equals the counter.  
2. The Periodic Interrupts: These are issued at every incre-  
ment of the specific clock counter signal. Thus, an inter-  
rupt is issued every minute, second, etc. Each of these  
interrupts occurs at the roll-over of the specific counter.  
To generate periodic interrupts at the desired rate, the asso-  
ciated Periodic Interrupt Enable bit in Interrupt Control Reg-  
ister 0 must be set. Any combination of periodic interrupts  
may be enabled to operate simultaneously. Enabled period-  
ic interrupts will now affect the Periodic Interrupt Flag in the  
Main Status Register.  
3. The Power Fail Interrupt: Issued upon recognition of a  
power fail condition by the internal sensing logic. The  
power failed condition is determined by the signal on the  
PFAIL pin. The internal power fail signal is gated with the  
chip select signal to ensure that the power fail interrupt  
does not lock the chip out during a read or write.  
When a periodic event occurs, the Periodic Interrupt Flag in  
the Main Status Register is set, causing an interrupt to be  
generated. The mP clears both flag and interrupt by writing a  
‘‘1’’ to the Periodic Interrupt Flag. The individual flags in the  
periodic Interrupt Flag Register do not require clearing to  
cancel the interrupt.  
ALARM COMPARE INTERRUPT DESCRIPTON  
The alarm/time comparison interrupt is a special interrupt  
similar to an alarm clock wake up buzzer. This interrupt is  
generated when the clock time is equal to a value pro-  
grammed into the alarm compare registers. Up to six bytes  
can be enabled to perform alarm time comparisons on the  
counter chain. These six bytes, or some subset thereof,  
would be loaded with the future time at which the interrupt  
will occur. Next, the appropriate bits in the Interrupt Control  
Register 1 are enabled or disabled (refer to detailed descrip-  
tion of Interrupt Control Register 1). The RTC then com-  
pares these bytes with the clock time. When all the enabled  
compare registers equal the clock time an alarm interrupt is  
issued, but only if the alarm compare interrupt is enabled  
can the interrupt be generated externally. Each alarm com-  
pare bit in the Control Register will enable a specific byte for  
comparison to the clock. Disabling a compare byte is the  
same as setting its associated counter comparator to an  
‘‘always equal’’ state. For example, to generate an interrupt  
at 3:15 AM of every day, load the hours compare with 0 3  
(BCD), the minutes compare with 1 5 (BCD) and the faster  
counters with 0 0 (BCD), and then disable all other compare  
registers. So every day when the time rolls over from  
3:14:59.99, an interrupt is issued. This bit may be reset by  
writing a one to bit D3 in the Main Status Register at any  
time after the alarm has been generated.  
If all periodic interrupts are disabled and a periodic interrupt  
is left pending (i.e., the Periodic Interrupt Flag is still set), the  
Periodic Interrupt Flag will still be required to be cleared to  
cancel the pending interrupt.  
POWER FAIL INTERRUPTS DESCRIPTION  
The Power Fail Status Flag in the Main Status Register  
monitors the state of the internal power fail signal. This flag  
may be interrogated by the mP, but it cannot be cleared; it is  
cleared automatically by the RTC when system power is  
restored. To generate an interrupt when the power fails, the  
Power Fail Interrupt Enable bit in Interrupt Control Register  
1 is set. Although this interrupt may not be cleared, it may  
be masked by clearing the Power Fail Interrupt Enable bit.  
POWER FAILURE CIRCUITRY FUNCTIONAL  
DESCRIPTION  
Since the clock must be operated from a battery when the  
main system supply has been turned off, the LV8572A pro-  
vides circuitry to simplify design in battery backed systems.  
This switches over to the back up supply, and isolates itself  
from the host system. Figure 6 shows a simplified block  
diagram of this circuitry, which consists of three major sec-  
tions; 1) power loss logic: 2) battery switch over logic: and 3)  
isolation logic.  
If time comparison for an individual byte counter is disabled,  
that corresponding RAM location can then be used as gen-  
eral purpose storage.  
Detection of power loss occurs when PFAIL is low. De-  
bounce logic provides a 30 ms63 ms debounce time, which  
will prevent noise on the PFAIL pin from being interpreted  
as a system failure. After 30 ms63 ms the debounce logic  
times out and a signal is generated indicating that system  
power is marginal and is failing. The Power Fail Interrupt will  
then be generated.  
PERIODIC INTERRUPTS DESCRIPTION  
The Periodic Flag Register contains six flags which are set  
by real-time generated ‘‘ticks’’ at various time intervals, see

If chip select is low when a power failure is detected, a  
safety circuit will ensure that if a read or write is held active  
continuously for greater than 30 ms after the power fail sig-  
nal is asserted, the lock-out will be forced. If a lock-out delay  
is enabled, the LV8572A will remain active for 480 ms after  
power fail is detected. This will enable the mP to perform  
last minute bookkeeping before total system collapse.  
When the host CPU is finished accessing the RTC it may  
force the bus lock-out before 480 ms has elapsed by reset-

This complete address space is organized into two pages.  
Page 0 contains two blocks of control registers, timers, real  
time clock counters, and special purpose RAM, while page  
1 contains general purpose RAM. Using two blocks enables  
the 9 control registers to be mapped into 5 locations. The  
only register that does not get switched is the Main Status  
Register. It contains the page select bit and the register  
select bit as well as status information.  
The power fail circuitry contains active linear circuitry that  
draws supply current from V . In some cases this may be

TIME COMPARE RAM  
To relieve CPU overhead for saving time upon power failure,  
the Time Save Enable bit is provided to do this automatical-

Save Enable bit, when set, causes the Time Save RAM to  
follow the contents of the clock. This bit can be reset by  
software, but if set before a power failure occurs, it will auto-  
matically be reset when the clock switches to the battery  
supply (not when a power failure is detected by the PFAIL  
pin). Thus, writing a one to the Time Save bit enables both a  
software write or power fail write.

MAIN STATUS REGISTER  
The Periodic Flag Register has the same bit for bit corre-  
spondence as Interrupt Control Register 0 except for D6  
and D7. For normal operation (i.e., not a single supply appli-  
cation) this register must be written to on initial power up or  
after an oscillator fail event. D0D5 are read only bits, D6  
and D7 are read/write.

taken directly from the interrupt pins. The bit is a one when  
an interrupt is pending on either the INTR pin or the MFO

interrupt. This bit is reset when the interrupt status bits in the

reset by writing a one to the clock start/stop bit in the Real  
Time Mode Register, with the crystal oscillating.  
When D6 is written to, it defines whether the TCP is being  
used in battery backed (normal) or in a single supply mode  
application. When set to a one this bit configures the TCP  
for single power supply applications. This bit is automatically  
set on initial power-up or an oscillator fail event. When set,  
D6 disables the oscillator reference circuit. The result is that  
D1D3: These three bits of the Main Status Register are the  
main interrupt status bits. Any bit may be a one when any of  
the interrupts are pending. Once an interrupt is asserted the  
mP will read this register to determine the cause. These  
interrupt status bits are not reset when read. Except for D1,  
to reset an interrupt a one is written back to the correspond-  
ing bit that is being tested. D1 is reset whenever the PFAIL

D5: The Delay Enable bit is used when a power fail occurs.  
D2: The count mode for the hours counter can be set to  
either 24 hour mode or 12 hour mode with AM/PM indicator.  
A one will place the clock in 12 hour mode.  
If this bit is set, a 480 ms delay is generated internally before  
the mP interface is locked out. This will enable the mP to  
access the registers for up to 480 ms after it receives a  
power fail interrupt. After a power failure is detected but  
prior to the 480 ms delay timing out, the host mP may force  
immediate lock out by resetting the Delay Enable bit. Note if  
this bit is a 0 when power fails then after a delay of 30 ms  
min/63 ms max the mP cannot read the chip.  
D3: This bit is the master Start/Stop bit for the clock. When  
a one is written to this bit the real time counter’s prescaler  
and counter chain are enabled. When this bit is reset to zero  
the contents of the real time counter is stopped and the  
prescaler is cleared. When the RTC is initially powered up  
this bit will be held at a logic 0 until the oscillator starts  
functioning correctly after which this bit may be modified. If

clock registers, and when a zero is written to this bit the time  
in the Time Save RAM is frozen. This eliminates any syn-  
chronization problems when reading the clock, thus negat-  
ing the need to check for a counter rollover during a read  
cycle.

associated compare RAM. If any bit is a zero then that  
clock-RAM comparator is set to the ‘‘always equal’’ state  
and the associated TIME COMPARE RAM byte can be used  
as general purpose RAM. However, to ensure that an alarm  
interrupt is not generated at bit D3 of the Main Status Regis-  
ter, all bits must be written to a logic zero.

D0D5: These bits are used to enable one of the selected  
periodic interrupts by writing a one into the appropriate bit.  
These interrupts are issued at the rollover of the clock. For  
example, the minutes interrupt will be issued whenever the  
minutes counter increments. In all likelihood the interrupt  
will be enabled asynchronously with the real time change.  
Therefore, the very first interrupt will occur in less than the  
periodic time chosen, but after the first interrupt all subse-  
quent interrupts will be spaced correctly. These interrupts  
are useful when minute, second, real time reading, or task  
switching is required. When all six bits are written to a 0 this  
disables periodic interrupts from the Main Status Register  
and the interrupt pin.  
D6: In order to generate an external alarm compare inter-  
rupt to the mP from bit D3 of the Main Status Register, this

main the same as in step 1. Under normal operation, this  
bit can be set only if the oscillator is running. During the  
software loop, RAM, real time counters, output configu-  
ration, interrupt control and timer functions may be ini-  
tialized.  
1. Enter the test mode by writing a 1 to bit D7 in the Period-  
ic Flag Register.  
2. Write zero to the RAM/TEST mode Register located in  
page 0, address HEX 1F.  
6. Test bit D6 in the Periodic Flag Register:  
IF a 1, go to 5.1. If this bit remains a 1 after 3 seconds,  
then abort and check hardware. The crystal may be de-  
fective or not installed. There may be a short at OSC IN  
3. Leave the test mode by writing a 0 to bit D7 in the Peri-  
odic Flag Register. Steps 1,2,3 guarantee that if the test  
mode had been entered during power on (due to ran-  
dom pulses from the system), all test mode conditions  
are cleared. Most important is that the OSC Fail Disable  
bit is cleared. Refer to AN-589 for more information on  
test mode operation.  
or OSC OUT to V or GND, or to some impedance that  
CC  
is less than 10 MX.  
IF a 0, then the oscillator is running, go to step 7.  
7. Write a 0 to bit D6 in the Periodic Flag Register. This  
action puts the clock chip in the battery backed mode.  
This mode can be entered only if the OSC fail flag (bit  
D6 of the Periodic Flag Register) is a 0. Reminder, Bit  
D6 is a dual function bit. When read, D6 returns oscilla-  
tor status. When written, D6 causes either the Battery  
Backed Mode, or the Single Supply Mode of operation.  
4. After power on (V  
and V powered), select the cor-

rect crystal frequency bits (D7, D6 in the Real Time  
Mode Register) as shown in Table IV.

The only method to ensure the chip is in the battery  
backed mode is to measure the waveform at the OSC  
OUT pin. If the battery backed mode was selected suc-  
cessfully, then the peak to peak waveform at OSC OUT  
is referenced to the battery voltage. If not in battery

8. Write a 1 to bit D7 of Interrupt Control Register 1. This  
action enables the PFAIL pin and associated circuitry.

to start the clock). Make sure the crystal select bits re-
