20. SmaRTClock (Real Time Clock)
C8051F99x-C8051F98x devices include an ultra low power 32-bit SmaRTClock Peripheral (Real Time
Clock) with alarm. The SmaRTClock has a dedicated 32 kHz oscillator that can be configured for use with
or without a crystal. No external resistor or loading capacitors are required. The on-chip loading capacitors
are programmable to 16 discrete levels allowing compatibility with a wide range of crystals. The SmaRT-
Clock can operate directly from a 1.8–3.6 V battery voltage and remains operational even when the device
goes into its lowest power down mode. The SmaRTClock output can be buffered and routed to a GPIO pin
to provide an accurate, low frequency clock to other devices while the MCU is in its lowest power down
mode (see “PMU0MD: Power Management Unit Mode” on page 168 for more details). C8051F99x-
C8051F98x devices also support an ultra low power internal LFO that reduces sleep mode current.
The SmaRTClock allows a maximum of 36 hour 32-bit independent time-keeping when used with a
32.768 kHz Watch Crystal. The SmaRTClock provides an Alarm and Missing SmaRTClock events, which
could be used as reset or wakeup sources. See Section “18. Reset Sources” on page 179 and Section
“15. Power Management” on page 161 for details on reset sources and low power mode wake-up sources,
respectively.
