Clock calibration
The M41T93 oscillator is designed for use with a 12.5pF crystal load capacitance. When the
calibration circuit is properly employed, accuracy improves to better than ±1 ppm at 25°C.
The M41T93 design provides the following two methods for clock error correction.
Digital calibration (periodic counter correction)
This method employs the use of periodic counter correction by adjusting the ratio of the
100Hz divider stage to the 512Hz divider stage. Under normal operation, the 100Hz divider
stage outputs precisely 100 pulses for every 512 pulses of the 512Hz input stage to provide
the input frequency to the Fraction of Seconds Clock register. By adjusting the number of
512Hz input pulses used to generate 100 output pulses, the clock can be sped up or slowed
down, as shown in
When a non-zero value is loaded into the five Calibration Bits (DC4 – DC0) found in the
Digital Calibration Register (08h) and the sign bit is ‘1,’ (indicating positive calibration), the
100Hz stage outputs 100 pulses for every 511 input pulses instead of the normal 512. Since
the 100 pulses are now being output in a shorter window, this has the effect of speeding up
the clock by 1/512 seconds for each second the circuit is active. Similarly, when the sign bit
is ‘0,’ indicating negative calibration, the block outputs 100 pulses for every 513 input pulses.
Since the 100 pulses are then being output in a longer window, this has the effect of slowing
down the clock by 1/512 seconds for each second the circuit is active.
The amount of calibration is controlled by using the value in the calibration register (N) to
generate the adjustment in one second increments. This is done for the first N seconds once
every eight minutes for positive calibration, and for N seconds once every sixteen minutes
for negative calibration (see
For example, if the Calibration register is set to '100010,' then the adjustment will occur for
two seconds in every minute. Similarly, if the calibration register is set to '000011,' then the
adjustment will occur for 3 seconds in every alternating minute.
The Digital Calibration Bits (DC4 – DC0) occupy the five lower order bits in the Digital
Calibration Register (08h). These bits can be set to represent any value between 0 and 31 in
binary form. The sixth bit (DCS) is a Sign Bit; '1' indicates positive calibration, '0' indicates
negative calibration. Calibration occurs within an 8-minute (positive) or 16-minute (negative)
cycle. Therefore, each calibration step has an effect on clock accuracy of +4.068 or –2.034
ppm. Assuming that the oscillator is running at exactly 32,768Hz, each of the 31 increments
in the Calibration byte would represent +10.7 or –5.35 seconds per month, which
corresponds to a total range of +5.5 or –2.75 minutes per month.
The modified pulses are not observable on the Frequency Test (FT) output, nor will the
effect of the calibration be measurable real-time, due to the periodic nature of the error
compensation.
Positive digital calibration is performed on an eight minute cycle, therefore the value in the
calibration register should not be modified more frequently than once every eight minutes for
positive values of calibration. Negative digital calibration is performed on a sixteen minute
cycle, therefore negative values in the calibration register should not be modified more
frequently than once every sixteen minutes.
