registers and accessed via the single-pin serial interface.
All of the settings, configuration, and calibration or
operating parameters are programmable and re-
programmable at any time. All of the parameters
required for stand-alone operations are initialized on
reset from the built-in factory-programmed Nonvolatile
memory. This allows the SH3001 to operate
autonomously for most of its supervisory functions. The
stand-alone operations do not require the use of the
serial interface or any of the initialization and control
operation, but without these, the full potential benefit of
the SH3001 might not be realized.
tightly coupled to the target micro, the SH3001 offers an
unprecedented level of design flexibility in clock and
power usage management.

no external support. The clock can be programmed to
start up at a given frequency, and software can adjust it
dynamically to manage power consumption and different
operating modes.
