DS1556 1M, Nonvolatile, Y2K-Compliant Timekeeping RAM
DESCRIPTION
The DS1556 is a full-function, year-2000-compliant (Y2KC), real-time clock/calendar (RTC) with an
RTC alarm, watchdog timer, power-on reset, battery monitor, and 128k x 8 nonvolatile static RAM. User
access to all registers within the DS1556 is accomplished with a byte-wide interface as shown in Figure 1.
The RTC registers contain century, year, month, date, day, hours, minutes, and seconds data in 24-hour
BCD format. Corrections for day of month and leap year are made automatically.
The RTC registers are double-buffered into an internal and external set. The user has direct access to the
external set. Clock/calendar updates to the external set of registers can be disabled and enabled to allow
the user to access static data. Assuming the internal oscillator is turned on, the internal set of registers is
continuously updated, which occurs regardless of external registers settings to guarantee that accurate
RTC information is always maintained.
The DS1556 has interrupt (IRQ/FT) and reset (RST) outputs which can be used to control CPU activity.
The IRQ/FT interrupt output can be used to generate an external interrupt when the RTC register values
match user programmed alarm values. The interrupt is always available while the device is powered from
the system supply and can be programmed to occur when in the battery-backed state to serve as a system
wake-up. Either the IRQ/FT or RST outputs can also be used as a CPU watchdog timer, CPU activity is
monitored and an interrupt or reset output will be activated if the correct activity is not detected within
programmed limits. The DS1556 power-on reset can be used to detect a system power down or failure
and hold the CPU in a safe reset state until normal power returns and stabilizes; the RST output is used
for this function.
The DS1556 also contains its own power-fail circuitry, which automatically deselects the device when the
V
supply enters an out of tolerance condition. This feature provides a high degree of data security
CC
during unpredictable system operation brought on by low V
levels.

PACKAGES
The DS1556 is available in two packages (32-pin DIP and 34-pin PowerCap module). The 32-pin DIP
style module integrates the crystal, lithium energy source, and silicon all in one package. The 34-pin
PowerCap module board is designed with contacts for connection to a separate PowerCap (DS9034PCX)
that contains the crystal and battery. This design allows the PowerCap to be mounted on top of the
DS1556P after the completion of the surface mount process. Mounting the PowerCap after the surface
mount process prevents damage to the crystal and battery due to the high temperatures required for solder
reflow. The PowerCap is keyed to prevent reverse insertion. The PowerCap Module board and PowerCap
are ordered separately and shipped in separate containers. The part number for the PowerCap is
DS9034PCX.
