S UM MARY DESCRIPTION
The M41T81 Serial Access TIMEKEEPER®
SRAM is a low power Serial RTC with a built-in
32.768kHz oscillator (external crystal controlled).
Eight bytes of the SRAM (see Table 2., page 13)
are used for the clock/calendar function and are
configured in bina ry cod ed dec imal (BCD) form at.
An additional 12 bytes of SRAM provide status/
control of Alarm, Watchdog and Square Wave
functions. Addresse s and data are transferred se-
rially via a two line, bi-directional I2C inter fac e. The
built-in address register is incremented automati-
cally after e ach WRITE or READ data byte.
The M41T81 has a built-in power sense circuit
which detects power failures and automatically
switches to the battery sup ply when a power fail-
ure occurs. The energy needed to sustain the
SRAM and clock opera tion s can be su pplied by a
small lithium button supply when a power failure
occurs.
Functions avai lable to the use r i nclude a non-v ol-
atile, time-of-day clock/calendar, Alarm interrupt s,
Watchdog Timer and programmable Square
Wave output. The eight clock address locations
contain the century, year, month, d ate, day, hour,
minute, second and tenths/hundredths of a sec-
ond in 24 hour BCD format. Corrections for 28, 29
(leap year - valid until year 2100), 30 and 31 day
months are made automat ically.
The M41T81 is supplied in eit her an 8-pin SOIC or
an 18-pin (MY) or 28-pin (MX), 300m il SOIC pack-
age which includes an embedde d 32kH z crystal.
The 18-pin and 28-pin, embedded crystal SOIC re-
quires only a user-suppli ed batt ery to provi de non-
volatile operation.

OPERATION
The M41T 81 clock operates as a s lave device on
the serial bus . Access is obtained by implementing
a start condition f ollowed by the correc t slave ad-
dress (D0h). The 20 bytes cont ained in the device
can then be accessed sequentially in t he foll owing
order:
1. Tenths/ Hundredths of a Second Register
2. Seconds Register
3. Min utes Register
4. Centur y/Hours Regi ster

6. D ate Register
7. Month Regist er
8. Yea r Register
9. Control Register
10. Watchdog Register
11 - 16. Ala rm Registers
17 - 19. Reserved
20. Square Wave Register
The M41T81 clock c ont inually monitors VCC for a n
out-of-tolerance condition. Should VCC fall below
VSO, the de vice te rminates an ac ces s in progress
and resets the device address counter. Inputs to
the device will not be recognized at this time to
prevent erroneous data from being written to the
devi ce from a an ou t-of-tole ran ce system. The d e-
vice also automatically swit ches over to the battery
and powers down into an ultra l ow current mode of
operation to conserve battery life. As system pow-
er returns and VCC rises above VSO, the battery is
disconnected, and the power suppl y is swi tched to
external VCC.

to Application Note AN1012.
2-Wire Bus Characteristics
The bus is intended for communication between
different ICs. It consists of two lines: a bi-direction-
al data signal (SDA) and a clock signal (SCL).
Both the SDA and SCL lines mus t be connected to
a positive supply voltage via a pull-up resistor.
The following protocol has been defined:
Data transfer may be initiated only when the
bus is not busy.
During data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is High.
Changes in the data line, while the clock line is
H igh, will be inte rpreted as control signals.
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have
been defined:
Bus not busy. Both data and clock lines remain
High.
Start data transfer . A change in th e state of the
data line, from high to Low, while the clock is High,
defines the START condi tion.
Stop data transfer. A change in the state of the
data line, from Low to High, while the clock is High,
defines the STOP condition .
Data Va lid. The state of the data line represents
valid data when after a start condition, the dat a line
is stable for the d uration of the high period of the
clock signal. T he data on the line may be changed
during the Low period of the clock signal. There i s
one clock pulse per bit of data.
Each data transfer is initiated with a start condi tion
and terminated with a stop condition. The number
of data bytes transferred between the start and
stop conditions is not limited. The information is
transmitted byte-wide and each rec eiver ack nowl-
edges with a ninth bit.
By definition a dev ice t hat gives o ut a m essag e is
called “transmitter,” the receiving dev ice that gets
the message is called “receiver. The device that
controls the message is called “master.” The de-
vices that are controlled by th e ma ster are called
“slaves.
Acknowledge. E ac h byte of eig ht bits is foll owed
by one Acknowledge B it. Thi s Acknowledge Bit is
a low level put on t he bus by the receiver whereas
the master generates an extra ac knowled ge relat-
ed clock pulse. A slave receiver which is ad-
dressed is obliged to generate an acknowledge
after the reception of each byte that has been
clocked out of the slave transmitter.
The device that acknowledges has to pull down
the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse
in such a way that the SDA line is a stable Low dur-
ing the High period of the acknowledge related
clock pulse. Of course, setup and hold times mus t
be taken int o account. A master recei ver must sig-
nal an end of data to the slave transmitter by not
generating an acknowledge on the last byte that
has been cloc ked out of the slave. In this case the
transmitter must l eave the data l ine High to enable
the mast er to generate the STOP condition.

READ Mode
In this mode the master reads the M41T81 slave
after setting the slave address (see Figure
11., page 10). Following the WRITE Mode Control
Bit (R/W=0) and the Acknowledge Bit, the word
address 'An' is written to the on-chip address
pointer. Next the START condition and slave ad-
dress are repeated followed by the READ Mode
Control Bit (R/W=1). At this point the master trans-
mitter becomes the master receiver. The data byte
which was addressed will be transmitted and the
master receiver will send an Acknowledge Bit to
the slave transmitter. The address pointer is only
incremented on reception of an Acknowledge
Clock. The M41T81 slave transmitter will now
place the data byte at address An+1 on the bus,
the master receiver reads and acknowledges the
new byte and the ad dress p ointer is incremented
to “An+2.”
This cycle of reading consecutive addresses will
continue until the master receiver se nds a STOP
condition to the slave transmitter.
The system-to-user transfer of clock data will be
halted whenever the address bei ng read is a clock
address (00h to 07h). The update will resume due
to a Stop Condition or when the pointer incr ements
to any non-clock address (08h-13h).
Note: This is true bot h in READ Mode and WRITE
Mode.
An alternate READ Mode may al so be implement-
ed whereby the master reads the M41T81 slave
without first w ri tin g to the (volatile) addres s point-
er. The first address that is read is the last one
stored in the p ointer (see Figure 12. , page 10).

In this mode the master transmitter transmits to
the M41T81 slav e receiver. Bus prot ocol is shown
in Fig ure 13., page 11. Following the STA RT con-
dition and slave address, a logic '0' (R/W=0) is
placed on the bus and indicates to the addressed
dev ic e t h at word addr es s An” will follow a nd is t o
be written to the on-chip addres s pointer. The data
word to be written to the memory is strobed in nex t
and the internal address pointer is increme nted to
the next address location on the reception of an
acknowledge clock. The M41T81 slave receiver
will send an acknowledge clock to the master
transmitter after i t has received the slave address
see Figure 10., page 9 and again after it has re-
ceived the word address and each data byte.
Data Reten tion Mode
With valid VCC applied, the M41T81 can be ac-
cessed as des cribed ab ov e with REA D or WRI TE
Cycles. Should the supply voltage decay, t he pow-
er input will be switched from the VCC pin to the
battery when V CC falls below the Batt ery B ack-up
Switchover Voltage (VSO). At this time the clock
registers will be maintained by the attached bat-
tery supply. On power-up, when VCC returns to a
nominal value, write protection continues for trec
(see Figure 19., page 23 , Table 11., page 23).

culations, please see Application Note AN1012.

C LOCK OP ERATION
The 20-byte Regi ster Map (see Table 2., page 13)
is used to bot h set the clock and to re ad the date
and time from the clock, in a bi nary coded decimal
format. Tenths /H undredths of S econds, Second s,
Minutes, and Hours are contained within the first
four registers.
Note: The Tent hs /Hun dredths of S eco nds c annot
be written to any value other than “00.”
Bits D6 and D7 of Clock Register 03h (Century/
Hours Register) contain the CENTURY ENABLE
Bit (CEB) and the CENTURY Bit (CB). Setting
CEB to a '1' will cause CB to toggle, either from '0'
to '1' or fr om '1' to '0' at the turn of the century (de-
pending upon its initial state). If CEB is set to a '0,'
CB will not toggle. B its D0 through D2 of Register
04h contain the Day (day of week). Registers 05h,
06h, and 07h contain the Date (day of month),
Month and Years. The ninth clock register is the
Control Register (this is described in the Clock
Calibration section). Bit D7 of Register 01h con-
ta ins the STOP Bi t ( ST). Setting thi s b i t to a ' 1 ' wil l
cause the oscillator to stop. If the device i s expect -
ed to spend a significant amount of time on the
shelf, the oscillator may be stopped to reduce cur-
rent drain. When reset t o a '0' the oscillator restarts
within one second.
The eight Clock Registers may be read one byte at
a time, or in a sequent ial block. Provision has been
made to assure that a clock update does not occur
while any of the eight clock addresses are being
read. If a clock address is being read, an update of
the clock registers will be halted. T his will prevent
a transition of data duri ng the READ.
Power-down Ti me-Stamp
When a power fa ilure occurs, the HT B it will auto-
matic a lly be s e t to a '1 . ' This w i ll prevent the clo c k
from updating the TIMEKEEPER® registers, and
will allow the user to read the exact time of the
power-down event . Resetting the HT Bit to a '0' will
allow the clock to update the TIMEKEEPER re g is-
ters with the current time. For more information,
see Applicat ion Note AN1572.
TIMEKEEPER® Registers
The M41T81 offers 20 internal registers which
contain Clock, Alarm, Watchdog, Flag, Square
Wave and Control data. These register s ar e mem-
ory l ocations which contai n external (user accessi-
ble) and internal copies of the data (usually
referred to as BiPORT TIMEKEEPER cells). The
external copies are independent of internal func-
tions except that they are updated p eriodically by
the simultaneous transfer of the incremented inter-
nal copy. The internal divider (or clock) chain will
be reset upon the completion of a WRITE to any
clock addr ess.
The system-to-user transfer of clock data will be
halted whenever the address bei ng read is a clock
address (00h to 07h). The update will resume ei-
ther due to a Stop Condition or when the pointer
increments to any non-clock address (08h-13h).
TIMEKEEPER and Alarm Registers store data in
BCD. Control, Watchdog and Square Wave Reg-
isters store data in Binary Format.

Ca libr a tin g t h e C lock
The M41T81 i s driven by a quartz controlled oscil-
lator with a nominal frequency of 32,768Hz. The
devices are tested not exceed –25 to +45 ppm
(parts per million) oscillator frequency error at
25oC, which equates to about +1. 9 to –1.1 minutes
per month (see Figure 14., page 15). When the
Calibration circuit is properly emp loyed, accuracy
improves to better than ±2 ppm at 25°C.
The oscillation rate of crystals changes with tem-
perature. The M41T81 design employs periodic
counter correction. The calibration circuit adds or
subtracts counts from the o scillator divider circuit
at the divide by 256 stage, as shown in Figure
15., page 15. The number of times pulses which
are blanked (subtracted, negative calibration) or
split (added, positive calibration) depends upon
the value loaded into the five Calibration B its f ound
in the Control Register. Adding counts speeds the
clock up, subtracting count s slows the clock down.
The Calibration Bits occupy the five lower order
bits (D4-D0) in the Control Register 08h. These
bits can be set to represent any value between 0
and 31 in binary form. Bit D5 is a Sign Bit; '1' indi-
cates positive calibration, '0' indicates negative
calibration. Calibration occurs within a 64 minute
cycle. The first 62 m inutes i n the cycle m ay, once
per minute, h ave one second either shortened by
128 or lengthened by 256 oscillator cycles. If a bi-
nary '1' is loaded into the register, only the first 2
minutes in the 64 minute cycle will b e modified; if
a binary 6 is loaded, the first 12 will be affected,
and so on.
Therefore, each calibration step has the effect of
adding 512 or subtracting 256 osc illator cycles for
every 125,829,120 actual oscillator cycles, that is
+4.068 or –2.034 ppm of adjustment per calibra-
tion step in the calibration register (see Figure
15., page 15). Assuming t hat the oscillator is run-
ning at exactly 32,768Hz, each of the 31 incre-
ments in the Calibration byte would represent
+10.7 or –5.35 seconds per month which corre-
sponds to a total range of +5.5 or –2.75 minutes
per month.
Two methods are available for ascertaining how
much cal ibration a giv en M41T81 may require.
The first involves setting the clock, lett i ng it run for
a month and comparing it to a known accurate r ef-
erence and r ecor ding dev iation over a fixed period
of time. Calibration values, including the number of
seconds lost or gained in a given period, can be
found in Application Note AN934, “TIMEKEEP-
ER® CALIBRATION.” This allows the designer to
give the end user the ability to calibrate the clock
as the environment r equi res, even i f the final prod-
uct is packaged in a non-user serviceable enclo-
sure. The designer could provide a simple utility
that accesses the Calibration byte.
The second approach is better suited to a m anu-
facturing environment, and involves the use of the
IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW pin. The pin will toggle at
512Hz, when the Stop Bit (ST, D7 of 01h) is '0,' the
Frequency Test Bit (FT, D6 of 08h) is '1,' the Alarm
Flag Enable Bit (AFE, D7 of 0Ah) is '0,' and the
Square Wave Enable Bit (SQWE, D6 of 0Ah) is '0'
and the Watchdog Register (09h = 0) is reset.
Any deviation from 512Hz indicates the degree
and direction of oscillator frequency shift at the test
temperature. For example, a reading of
512.010124Hz would indicate a +20 ppm oscillator
frequency error, requiring a –10 (XX001010) to be
loaded into the Calibration Byte for correction.
Note that setting or changing the Calibration Byte
does not affect the Frequency Test output fre-
quency.
The IRQ/FT/OUT/ SQW pin is an open drain output
which requires a pull-up resistor to VCC for proper
operation. A 500-10k resistor is recommended in
order to c ontrol the rise time. The FT Bit is cleared
on power-down.

Setting Alarm Clock Registers
Address locations 0Ah-0E h cont ain the alarm se t-
tings. The alarm can be configured to go off at a
prescribed time on a specific month, date, hour,
minute, or second or repeat every year, month,
day, hour, minute, or second. It can also be pro-
grammed to go off whil e the M41T81 is in the bat-
tery back-up mode to serve as a system wake-up
call.
Bits RPT5-RPT1 put the alarm in the repeat mode
of operation. Table 3., page 17 shows the possible
configurations. Codes not listed in the table default
to the once per second mode to quickly alert the
user of an incorrect al arm setting.
When the clock information matches the alarm
clock settings based on the match crit eria d efined
by RPT5-RPT1, the AF (Alarm Flag) is set . If AFE
(Alarm Flag Enable) is also set (and SQWE is '0.'),
the alarm condition activates the IRQ/FT/OUT/
SQW pin.
Note: If the address pointer is allowed to incre-
ment to the Flag Registe r ad dress, an alarm con-
dition will not cause the Interrupt/Flag to occur until
the address pointer is moved to a different ad-
dress. It should also be noted that if the last ad-
dress written is the “Alarm Seconds,” the address
pointer will increment to t he F lag address, c ausi ng
this situation to oc cur.
The IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW output is cleared by a
READ to the Flags Register as shown in Figure
16. A subsequent READ of the Flags Register is
necessary to see that the value of the Alarm Flag
has been reset to '0.'
The IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW pin can also be a ctivated
in the battery back-up mode. The IRQ/FT/OUT/
SQW will go low if an alarm occ urs and both A BE
(Alarm in Battery Back-up M ode Enable) and AFE
are set. Figure 17 illustrates the back-up mode
alarm timing.

Table 3. Alarm Repeat Modes
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer can be used to det ect an out-
of-control microprocessor. The us er program s the
watchdog timer by setting the desired amount of
time-out into the Watchdog Register, address 09h.
Bits BMB4-BMB0 store a binary mul tiplier and the
two lower order bits RB1-RB0 select the resolu-
tion, where 00 = 1/16 second, 01 = 1/4 second,
10 = 1 second, and 11 = 4 seconds. The amount
of time-out is then determined to be the multiplica-
tion of the five-b it multiplier value with the resolu-
tion. (For example: writing 00001110 in the
Watchdog Register = 3*1, or 3 seconds). If the
processor does not reset t he timer within the spec-
ified period, the M41T81 sets the WDF (Watchdog
Flag) and generates a watchdog int errupt.
The watc hdog timer can be reset by having the mi-
croprocessor perform a WRITE of the Watchdog
Register. The time-out period then starts over.
Should the watchdog timer time-out, a value of
00h needs to be written to the Watchdog Regi ster
in order to clear the IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW pin. This
will also disable the watchdog function until it is
again programm ed corr ectly. A RE AD of the Fl ags
Register will reset the Watchdog Flag (Bit D7;
Register 0Fh).
The watchdog function is automatically disabled
upon power-up and the Watchdog Register is
cleared. If the watchdog function is set, the fre-
quency test function is activated, and the SQWE
Bit is '0,' the watchdog function prevails and the
frequency test function is denied.

Square Wave Output
The M41T81 offers the user a programmable
square wave function which is output on the SQW
pin. RS3-RS0 bits located in 13h establish the
square wave output f requency. These frequencies
are listed in Table 4. Once the selection of the
SQW f requency has been completed, the IRQ/FT/
OUT/SQW pin can be turned on and of f under soft-
ware control with the Square Wave Enable Bit
(SQWE) located in Register 0Ah.

Century Bit
Bits D7 and D6 of Clock Register 03h contain the
CENTURY ENABLE Bi t (CEB) and the CENTURY
Bit ( CB). Setting CEB to a '1' will cause CB to tog-
gle, either from a '0' to '1' or from '1' to '0' at the turn
of the century (depending upon its initial state). If
CEB is set to a '0,' CB will not toggle.
Output Driver Pin
When the F T Bit, AFE Bit , SQ WE Bi t, and Wa tch-
dog Register are not set, the IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW
pin becomes an output driver t hat reflects t he con-
tents of D7 of the Cont rol Register. In other words ,
when D7 (OUT Bit) and D6 (FT Bit) of address lo-
cation 08h are a '0,' then the IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW
pin will be driven low .
Note: The I RQ/ FT/OUT/SQW pin i s an open drain
which requires an external pull-up resistor.
