The X1241 is a Real Time Clock with clock/calendar
circuits and a selectable watchdog timer. The dual port
clock register allows the clock to operate, without loss
of accuracy, even during read and write operations.
The clock/calendar provides functionality that is con-
trollable and readable through a set of registers. The
clock, using a low cost 32.768kHz crystal input, accu-
rately tracks the time in seconds, minutes, hours, date,
day, month and years. It has leap year correction,
automatic adjustment for the year 2000 and months
with less than 31 days.
The device offers a backup power input pin. This
Vback pin allows the device to be backed up by a non-
rechargeable battery. The RTC is fully operational
from 1.8 to 5.5 volts.
The X1241 provides a 2K byte EEPROM array, giving
a safe, secure memory for critical user and configura-
tion data. This memory is unaffected by complete fail-
ure of the main and backup supplies.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Serial Clock (SCL)
The SCL input is used to clock all data into and out of
the device. The input buffer on this pin is always active
(not gated).
Serial Data (SDA)
SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into
and out of the device. It has an open drain output and
may be wire ORed with other open drain or open col-
lector outputs. The input buffer is always active (not
gated).
An open drain output requires the use of a pull-up
resistor. The output circuitry controls the fall time of
the output signal with the use of a slope controlled
pull-down. The circuit is designed for 400kHz 2-wire
interface speeds.
V
BACK
This input provides a backup supply voltage to the
device. V
BACK
supplies power to the device in the
event the V
CC
supply fails.
RESET Output—RESET
This is a reset signal output. This signal notifies a host
processor that the watchdog time period has expired
or that the voltage has dropped below a fixed V
TRIP
threshold. It is an open drain active LOW output.
X1, X2
The X1 and X2 pins are the input and output, respec-
tively, of an inverting amplifier that can be configured
for use as an on-chip oscillator. A 32.768kHz quartz

REAL TIME CLOCK OPERATION
The Real Time Clock (RTC) uses an external, 32.768KHz
quartz crystal to maintain an accurate internal repre-
sentation of the year, month, day, date, hour, minute,
and seconds. The RTC has leap-year correction and a
century byte. The clock will also correct for months hav-
ing fewer than 31 days and will have a bit that controls
24 hour or AM/PM format. When the X1241 powers up
after the loss of both V
CC
and V
BACK
, the clock will not
increment until at least one byte is written to the clock
register.
Reading the Real Time Clock
The RTC is read by initiating a Read command and
specifying the address corresponding to the register of
the Real Time Clock. The RTC Registers can then be
read in a Sequential Read Mode. Since the clock runs
continuously and a read takes a finite amount of time,
there is the possibility that the clock could change dur-
ing the course of a read operation. In this device, the
X1241
time is latched by the read command (falling edge of
the clock on the ACK bit prior to RTC data output) into
a separate latch to avoid time changes during the read
operation. The clock continues to run.
Writing to the Real Time Clock
The time and date may be set by writing to the RTC
registers. To avoid changing the current time by an
uncompleted write operation, the current time value is
loaded into a seperate buffer at the falling edge of the
clock on the ACK bit before the RTC data input bytes,
the clock continues to run. The new serial input data
replaces the values in the buffer. This new RTC value
is loaded back into the RTC Register by a stop bit at
the end of a valid write sequence. An invalid write
operation aborts the time update procedure and the
contents of the buffer are discarded. After a valid write
operation the RTC will reflect the newly loaded data
beginning with the first “one second” clock cycle after
the stop bit. The RTC continues to update the time
while an RTC register write is in progress and the RTC
continues to run during any nonvolatile write sequences.
A single byte may be written to the RTC without affect-
ing the other bytes.
CLOCK/CONTROL REGISTERS (CCR)
The Control/Clock Registers are located in an area
logically separated from the array and are only acces-
sible following a slave byte of “1101111x” and reads or
writes to addresses [0000h:003Fh].
CCR access
The contents of the CCR can be modified by performing
a byte or a page write operation directly to any address in
the CCR. Prior to writing to the CCR (except the status
register), however, the WEL and RWEL bits must be
set using a two step process (See section “Writing to
the Clock/Control Registers.”)
The CCR is divided into 3 sections. These are:
1. Control (2 bytes)
2. Real Time Clock (8 bytes)
3. Status (1 byte)
Sections 1) and 2) are nonvolatile and Section 3) is
volatile. Each register is read and written through buff-
ers. The non-volatile portion (or the counter portion of
the RTC) is updated only if RWEL is set and only after
a valid write operation and stop bit. A sequential read or
page write operation provides access to the contents
of only one section of the CCR per operation. Access
to another section requires a new operation. Contin-
ued reads or writes, once reaching the end of a sec-
tion, will wrap around to the start of the section. A read
or page write can begin at any address in the CCR.
Section 3) is a volatile register. It is not necessary to set
the RWEL bit prior to writing the status register. Section 3)
supports a single byte read or write only. Continued reads
or writes from this section terminates the operation.
The state of the CCR can be read by performing a ran-
dom read at any address in the CCR at any time. This
returns the contents of that register location. Additional
registers are read by performing a sequential read.
The read instruction latches all Clock registers into a
buffer, so an update of the clock does not change the
time being read. A sequential read of the CCR will not
result in the output of data from the memory array. At
the end of a read, the master supplies a stop condition
to end the operation and free the bus. After a read of
the CCR, the address remains at the previous address
+1 so the user can execute a current address read of
the CCR and continue reading the next Register.

REAL TIME CLOCK REGISTERS
Year 2000 (Y2K)
The X1241 has a century byte that “rolls over” from 19
to 20 when the years byte changes from 99 to 00. The
Y2K byte can contain only the values of 19 or 20.
Day of the Week Register (DW)
This register provides a Day of the Week status and
uses three bits DY2 to DY0 to represent the seven
days of the week. The counter advances in the cycle
0-1-2-3-4-5-6-0-1-2-... The assignment of a numerical
value to a specific day of the week is arbitrary and may
be decided by the system software designer. The
Clock Default values define 0=Sunday.
Clock/Calendar Registers (YR, MO, DT, HR, MN, SC)
These registers depict BCD representations of the
time. As such, SC (Seconds) and MN (Minutes) range
from 00 to 59, HR (Hour) is 1 to 12 with an AM or PM
indicator (H21 bit) or 0 to 23 (with MIL=1), DT (Date) is
1 to 31, MO (Month) is 1 to 12, YR (year) is 0 to 99.
24 Hour Time
If the MIL bit of the HR register is 1, the RTC will use a
24-hour format. If the MIL bit is 0, the RTC will use 12-
hour format and bit H21 will function as an AM/PM
indicator with a ‘1’ representing PM. The clock defaults
to Standard Time with H21=0.
Leap Years
Leap years add the day February 29 and are defined
as those years that are divisible by 4. Years divisible
by 100 are not leap years, unless they are also divisi-
ble by 400. This means that the year 2000 is a leap
year, the year 2100 is not. The X1241 does not correct
for the leap year in the year 2100.
STATUS REGISTER (SR)
The Status Register is located in the RTC area at
address 003FH. This is a volatile register only and is
used to control the WEL and RWEL write enable
latches, and read a Low Voltage Sense bit. This regis-
ter is logically seperated from both the array and the
Clock/Control Registers (CCR).

BAT: Battery Supply—Volatile
This bit set to “1” indicates that the device is operating
from V
BACK
, not V
CC
. It is a read only bit and is set/
reset by hardware.

X1241
RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch—Volatile
This bit is a volatile latch that powers up in the LOW
(disabled) state. The RWEL bit must be set to “1” prior
to any writes to the Clock/Control Registers. Writes to
RWEL bit do not cause a nonvolatile write cycle, so the
device is ready for the next operation immediately after
the stop condition. A write to the CCR requires both the
RWEL and WEL bits to be set in a specific sequence.
WEL: Write Enable Latch—Volatile
The WEL bit controls the access to the CCR and mem-
ory array during a write operation. This bit is a volatile
latch that powers up in the LOW (disabled) state. While
the WEL bit is LOW, writes to the CCR or any array
address will be ignored (no acknowledge will be issued
after the Data Byte). The WEL bit is set by writing a “1”
to the WEL bit and zeroes to the other bits of the Status
Register. Once set, WEL remains set until either reset
to 0 (by writing a “0” to the WEL bit and zeroes to the
other bits of the Status Register) or until the part pow-
ers up again. Writes to WEL bit do not cause a non-vol-
atile write cycle, so the device is ready for the next
operation immediately after the stop condition.
RTCF: Real Time Clock Fail Bit—Volatile
This bit is set to a ‘1’ after a total power failure. This is a
read only bit that is set by hardware when the device
powers up after having lost all power to the device. The
bit is set regardless of whether V
CC
or V
BACK
is applied
first. The loss of one or the other supplies does not
result in setting the RTCF bit. The first valid write to the
RTC (writing one byte is sufficient) resets the RTCF bit
to ‘0’.
Unused Bits:
These devices do not use bits 3 through 6, but must
have a zero in these bit positions. The Data Byte output
during a SR read will contain zeros in these bit locations.
CONTROL REGISTERS
Block Protect Bits - BP2, BP1, BP0 - (Nonvolatile)
The Block Protect Bits, BP2, BP1 and BP0, determine
which blocks of the array are write protected. A write to
a protected block of memory is ignored. The block pro-
tect bits will prevent write operations to one of eight
segments of the array. The partitions are described in
Table 3.

WRITING TO THE CLOCK/CONTROL REGISTERS
Changing any of the nonvolatile bits of the clock/control
register requires the following steps:
—Write a 02H to the Status Register to set the Write
Enable Latch (WEL). This is a volatile operation, so
there is no delay after the write. (Operation pre-
ceeded by a start and ended with a stop).
—Write a 06H to the Status Register to set both the
Register Write Enable Latch (RWEL) and the WEL
bit. This is also a volatile cycle. The zeros in the data
byte are required. (Operation preceeded by a start
and ended with a stop).
—Write one to 8 bytes to the Clock/Control Registers
with the desired clock, or control data. This sequence
starts with a start bit, requires a slave byte of
“11011110” and an address within the CCR and is
terminated by a stop bit. A write to the CCR changes
EEPROM values so these initiate a nonvolatile write
cycle and will take up to 10ms to complete. Writes to
undefined areas have no effect. The RWEL bit is
