Timing using non-volatile memory and microcontroller-Using a Nonvol

Abstract: This applicaTIon note describes how to use a NonvolaTIle TImekeeping RAM with an 8051-type microcontroller. An example schemaTIc is provided. Source code provides an example of how to read and write the real-time clock (RTC) registers.

IntroductionThe nonvolatile timekeeping family of real-time clock (RTC) products provide battery-backed NV SRAM as well as time and date. The clock registers are accessed identically to the SRAM. Table 1 shows a list of products in the nonvolatile timekeeping family. The DS174_ series are identical to the DS164_, with the addition of a century bit and optional 3.3V operation.

Pin Configurations

In the following example, a DS1644 or DS1646 is connected to a DS87C320. The DS87C320 high-speed microcontroller is compatible with the industry-standard 8051 architecture. Other NV RAM densities could be supported with appropriate changes to the circuit. For related application notes, please refer to the Quick View data sheets for the DS87C320 and DS1644. A reference RTC clock shematic follows the code.

When the semiconductor diode is turned on, it is equivalent to the switch closing (circuit is turned on), and when it is turned off, it is equivalent to the switch opening (circuit cut), so the diode can be used for switching, and the commonly used model is 1N4148. Since the semiconductor diode has a unidirectional conduction characteristic, the PN junction is turned on under a positive bias, and the resistance in the on state is small, about several tens to several hundreds of ohms; in the reverse bias, it is off. The resistance is very large. Generally, the silicon diode is above 10 Μ Ω, and the bismuth tube is also several tens of kilo ohms to several hundred kilo ohms. With this feature, the diode will act as a control for the current to turn on or off in the circuit, making it an ideal electronic switch.
