DESCRIPTION
The DS1244 256K NV SRAM with Phantom Clock is a full y static nonvolatile RAM (organized as 32K
words by 8 bits) with a built–in real time clock. The DS1244 has a self–contained lithium energy source
and control circuitry which constantly monitors VCC for an out–of–tolerance condition. When such a
condition occurs, the lithium energy source is automatically switched on and write protection is
unconditionally enabled to prevent garbled data in both the memory and real time clock.
The Phantom Clock provides timekeeping information including hundredths of seconds, seconds,
minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. The date at the end of the month is automaticall y
adjusted for months with less than 31 days, including correction for leap years. The Phantom Clock
operates in either 24–hour or 12–hour format with an AM/PM indicator.
PACKAGES
The DS1244 is available in two packages (28–pin DIP and 34–Pin PowerCap module). The 28–pin DIP
style module integrates the crystal, lithium energy source, and silicon all in one package. The 34–pin
PowerCap Module Board is designed with contacts for conne ction to a separa te PowerC ap (DS9034PCX)
that contains the crystal and battery. This design allows the PowerCap to be mounted on top of the
DS1244P after the completion of the surface mount process. Mounting the PowerCap after the surface
mount process prevents damage to the crystal and battery due to the hi gh tempe ratur es required for solde r
reflow. The PowerCap is keyed to prevent reverse insertion. The PowerCap Module Board and PowerCap
are ordered separately and shipped in separate containers. The part number for the Powercap is
DS9034PCX.
RAM READ MODE
The DS1244 executes a read c ycle wh enever WE(Write Enable) is inactive (high ) and CE (Chip Enable)
is active (low). The unique address specified by the 15 address inputs (A0–A14) defines which of the
32,768 bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data will be available to the eight data output drivers within
tACC (Access Time) after the last address input signal is stable, providing that CE and OE (Output Enable)
access times and states are also satisfied. If OE and CE access times are not satisfied, then data access
must be measured from the later occurring signal (CE or OE) and the limiting parameter is either tCO for
CE or tOE for OE rather than address access.
DS1244/DS1244P
3 of 19
RAM WRITE MODE
The DS1244 is in the write mode whenever the WE and CE signals are in the active (low) state after
address inputs are stable. The latter occurring falling edge of CE or WE will determine the start of the
write cycle. The write cycle is terminated by the earlier rising edge of CE or WE. All address inputs must
be kept valid throughout the write cycle. WE must return to the high state for a minimum recovery time
(tWR ) before another cycle can be initiated. The OE control signal should be kept inactive (high) during
write cycles to avoid bus contention. However, if the output bus has been enabled (CE and OE active)
then WE will disable the outputs in tODW from its falling edge.
DATA RETENTION MODE
The 5 volt device is fully accessible and data can be written or read only when VCC is greater than VPF .
However, when VCC is below the power fail point, VPF , (point at which write protection occurs) the
internal clock r egisters and SRAM ar e blocked from an y access. When VCC falls below the battery switch
point VSO (battery supply level), device power is switched from the VCC pin to the backup battery. RTC
operation and SRAM data are maintained from the battery until VCC is returned to nominal levels.
The 3.3 volt device is full y accessible and d ata can be written or re ad only when VCC is greater than VPF .
When VCC fall as below the power fail point, VPF , access to the device i s inhi bited. If VPF is less than VBAT ,
the device power is switched from VCC to the backup supply (VBAT ) when VCC drops below VPF . If VPF is
greater than VBAT , the device power is switched from VCC to the backup supply (VBAT ) when VCC drops
below VBAT . RTC operation and SRAM data are maintained from the battery until VCC is returned to
nominal levels.
All control, data, and address signals must be powered down when VCC is powered down.
PHANTOM CLOCK OPERATI O N
Communication with the Phantom Clock is established by pattern recognition on a serial bit stream of 64
bits which must be matched by executing 64 consecutive write c ycles containing the proper dat a on DQ0.
All accesses which occur prior to recognition of the 64–bit pattern are directed to memory.
After recognition is established, the next 64 read or write cycles either extract or update data in the
Phantom Clock, and memory access is inhibited.
Data transfer to and from the timekeepin g function is accomplished with a serial bit stream under control
of Chip Enable (CE ), Output Enable (OE ), and Write Enable (WE ). Initially, a read cycle to any memory
location using the CE and OE control of the Phantom Clock starts the pattern recognition sequence by
moving a pointer to the first bit of the 64–bit comparison register. Next, 64 consecutive write cycles are
executed using the CE and WE control of the SmartWatch. These 64 write cycles are used only to gain
access to the Phantom Clock. Therefore, any address to the memory in the socket is acceptable.
However, the write cycles generated to gain access to the Phantom Clock are also writing data to a
location in the mated RAM. The preferred way to manage this requirement is to set aside just one address
location in RAM as a Phantom Clock scratch pad. When the first write cycle is executed, it is compared
to bit 0 of the 64–bit comparison register. If a match is found, the pointer increments to the nex t location
of the comparison register and awaits the next write cycle. If a match is not found, the pointer does not
advance and all subsequent write cycles are ignored. If a read cycle occurs at any time during pattern
recognition, the present sequence is aborted and the comparison register pointer is reset. Pattern
recognition continues for a total of 64 write cycles as describ ed above until all the bits in the comparison
register have been matched (this bit pattern is shown in Figure 1). With a correct match for 64–bits, the
Phantom Clock is enabled and data transfer to or from the timekeeping registers can proceed. The next 64
DS1244/DS1244P
4 of 19
cycles will cause the Phantom Clock to either receive or transmit data on DQ0, depending on the lev el of
the OE pin or the WE pin. Cycles to other locations outside the memory block can be interleaved with
CE cycles without interrupting the pattern reco gnition sequence or data transfer sequence to the Phantom
Clock.
PHANTOM CLOCK REGISTER INFORMATION
The Phantom Clock information is contained in eight registers of 8 bits, each of which is sequentially
accessed 1 bit at a time after the 64–bit pattern recognition sequence h as been completed. W hen updatin g
the Phantom Clock registers, each register must be handled in groups of 8 bits. Writing and reading
individual bits within a register could produce erron eous results. These read/ write registe rs are defined in
Figure 2.
Data contained in the Phantom Clock register is in binary coded decimal format (BCD). Reading and
writing the registers is always accomplished by stepping through all eight registers, starting with bit 0 of
register 0 and ending with bit 7 of register 7.
PHANTOM CLOCK REGISTER DEFINITION Figure 1
NOTE:
The pattern recognition in Hex is C5, 3A, A3, 5C, C5, 3A, A3, 5C. The odds of this pattern being
accidentally duplicated and causing inadvertent entry to the Phantom Clock is less than 1 in 1019. This
pattern is sent to the Phantom Clock LSB to MSB.

PHANTOM CLOCK REGISTER DEFINITION Figure 2
AM–PM/12/24 MODE
Bit 7 of the hours register is defined as the 12– or 24–hour mode select bit. W hen high, the 12–hour mode
is selected. In the 12–hour mode, bit 5 is the AM/PM bit with logic high being PM. In the 24–hour mode,
bit 5 is the second 10–hour bit (20–23 hours).
OSCILLATOR AND RESET BITS
Bits 4 and 5 of the day register are us ed to control the RESET and oscillator functions. Bit 4 controls the
RESET (pin 1). When the RESET bit is set to logic 1, the RESET input pin is ignored. When the RESET
bit is set to logic 0, a low input on the RESET pin will cause the Phantom Clock to abort data transfer
without changing data in the watch registers. Bit 5 controls the oscillator. When set to logic 1, the
oscillator is off. When set to logic 0, the oscillator turns on and the watch becomes operational. These
bits are shipped from the factory set to a logic 1.
ZERO BITS
Registers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 contain one or more bits which will always read logic 0. When writing thes e
locations, either a logic 1 or 0 is acceptable.

BATTERY LONGEVITY
The DS1244 has a lithium power source that is designed to provide energy for clock activity, and clock
and RAM data retention when the VCC suppl y is not present. The capability of this internal power supply
is sufficient to power the DS1244 continuously for the life of the equipment in which it is installed. For
specification purposes, the life ex pectan cy is 10 years at 25°C with the internal clock os cillator running in
the absence of VCC power. Each DS1244 is shipped from Dallas Semiconductor with its lithium energy
source disconnected, guaranteeing full energy capacity. When VCC is first applied at a level greater than
VPF , the lithium energy source is enabled for battery backup operation. Actual life expectancy of the
DS1244 will be much longer than 10 years since no lithium battery energy is consumed when VCC is
present.
CLOCK ACCURACY (DIP MODULE)
The DS1244 is guaranteed to keep time accuracy to within ±1 minute per month at 25°C. The clock is
calibrated at the factory by Dallas Semiconductor using special calibration nonvolatile tuning elements.
The DS1244 does not require additional calibration and temperature deviations will have a negligible
effect in most applications. For this reason, methods of field clock calibration are not available and not
necessary.
CLOCK ACCUR ACY (POWERCAP MODULE)
The DS1244P and DS9034PCX are each individually tested for accuracy. Once mounted together, the
module is guaranteed to keep time accuracy to within ±1.53 minutes per month (35 ppm) at 25°C.

Input Pulse Rise and Fall Times: 5 ns
NOTES:
1. WE is high for a read cycle.
2. OE = VIH or VIL . If OE = VIH during write cycle, the output buffers remain in a high impedance state.
3. tWP is specified as the lo gical AND of CE and W E. tWP is measured from the latter of CE or WE going
low to the earlier of CE or WE going high.
4. tDH , t DS are measured from the earlier of CE or WE going high.
5. These parameters are sampled with a 50 pF load and are not 100% tested.
6. If the CE low transition occurs simultaneously with or later than the WE low transition in Write Cycle
1, the output buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
7. If the CE high transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the WE high transition, the output
buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
8. If WE is low or the WE low transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the CE low transition, the
output buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
9. The expected tDR is defined as cumulative time in the absence of VCC with the clock oscillator running.
10. tWR is a function of the latter occurring edge of WE or CE.
11. Voltage are referencd to ground.
12. RST (Pin1) has an internal pull–up resistor.
13. Real–Time Clock Modules can be successfully processed through conventional wave–soldering
techniques as long as temperature exposure to the lithium energy source contained within does not
exceed +85°C. Post solder cleaning with water washing techniques is acceptable, provided that
ultrasonic vibration is not used.
In addition, for the PowerCap:
a. Dallas Semiconductor recommends that PowerCap Module bases experience one pass through solder
reflow oriented with the label side up (“live – bug”).
b. Hand Soldering and touch–up: Do not touch or appl y the soldering iron to leads for more th an 3 (three)
seconds.
To solder, apply flux to the pad, heat the lead frame pad and apply solder. To remove the part, apply
flux, heatthe lead frame pad until the solder reflow and use a solder wick to remove solder.
