3. How to confirm setting value for register and result of correction
The S-35190A does not adjust the frequency of the crystal oscillation by using the clock-correction function. Therefore
users cannot confirm if it is corrected or not by measuring output 32.768 kHz. When the function to clock-correction is
being used, the cycle of 1 Hz clock pulse output from the INT pin changes once in 20 times or 60 times, as shown in
Figure 33 .
Measure a and b by using the frequency counter

Calculate the error of the clock based on the average frequency (Tave).

Confirmation example: When B0 =0, 66h is set
*1. Use a high-accuracy frequency counter of 7 digits or more.
Caution Measure the oscillation frequency under the usage conditions.
INT pin
B0 = 0, Tave = (a × 19 + b) ÷ 20
B0 = 1, Tave = (a × 59 + b) ÷ 60
Calculating the average frequency allows to confirm the result of correction.
