6.2 Pin description
7. Functional description
The PCF8563 contains sixteen 8-bit registers with an auto-incrementing address register,
an on-chip 32.768 kHz oscillator with one integrated capacitor, a frequency divider which
provides the source clock for the Real-Time Clock/calender (RTC), a programmable clock
output, a timer, an alarm, a voltage-low detector and a 400 kHz I2C-bus interface.
All 16 registers are designed as addressable 8-bit parallel registers although not all bits
are implemented. The first two registers (memory address 00h and 01h) are used as
control and/or status registers. The memory addresses 02h through 08h are used as
counters for the clock function (seconds up to years counters). Address locations 09h
through 0Ch contain alarm registers which define the conditions for an alarm.
Address 0Dh controls the CLKOUT output frequency. 0Eh and 0Fh are the timer control
and timer registers, respectively.
The seconds, minutes, hours, days, weekdays, months, years as well as the minute alarm,
hour alarm, day alarm and weekday alarm registers are all coded in Binary Coded
Decimal (BCD) format.
When one of the RTC registers is read the contents of all counters are frozen. Therefore,
faulty reading of the clock/calendar during a carry condition is prevented.
7.1 Alarm function modes
By clearing the MSB of one or more of the alarm registers (bit AE = Alarm Enable), the
corresponding alarm condition(s) will be active. In this way an alarm can be generated
from once per minute up to once per week. The alarm condition sets the Alarm Flag (AF).
The asserted AF can be used to generate an interrupt (on pin INT). The AF can only be
cleared by software.

Real-time clock/calendar
7.2 Timer
The 8-bit countdown timer at address 0Fh is controlled by the timer control register at
address 0Eh. The timer control register determines one of 4 source clock frequencies for
the timer (4096 Hz, 64 Hz, 1 Hz, or 160 Hz), and enables or disables the timer. The timer
counts down from a software-loaded 8-bit binary value. At the end of every countdown,
the timer sets the Timer Flag (TF). The TF may only be cleared by software. The
asserted TF can be used to generate an interrupt (on pin INT). The interrupt may be
generated as a pulsed signal every countdown period or as a permanently active signal
which follows the state of TF. Bit TI_TP is used to control this mode selection. When
reading the timer, the current countdown value is returned.
7.3 Clock output
A programmable square wave is available at pin CLKOUT. Operation is controlled by the
CLKOUT control register at address 0Dh. Frequencies of 32.768 kHz (default), 1024 Hz,
32 Hz and 1 Hz can be generated for use as a system clock, microcontroller clock, input to
a charge pump, or for calibration of the oscillator. CLKOUT is an open-drain output and
enabled at power-on. If disabled it becomes high-impedance.
7.4 Reset
The PCF8563 includes an internal reset circuit which is active whenever the oscillator is
stopped. In the reset state the I2C-bus logic is initialized and all registers are reset
according to Table 25.
7.5 Voltage-low detector
The PCF8563 has an on-chip voltage-low detector (see Figure 7). When VDD drops below
Vlow, bit VL in the seconds register is set to indicate that the integrity of the clock
information is no longer guaranteed. The VL flag can only be cleared by software.
Bit VL is intended to detect the situation when VDD is decreasing slowly, for example under
battery operation. Should VDD reach Vlow before power is re-asserted then bit VL is set.
This will indicate that the time may be corrupted.

7.6 Register organization
7.6.1 Control_status_1 register
7.6.2 Control_status_2 register
Bits TF and AF: When an alarm occurs, AF is set to logic 1. Similarly, at the end of a timer
countdown, TF is set to logic 1. These bits maintain their value until overwritten by
software. If both timer and alarm interrupts are required in the application, the source of
the interrupt can be determined by reading these bits. To prevent one flag being
overwritten while clearing another a logic AND is performed during a write access.

Bit positions labelled as x are not relevant. Bit positions labelled with 0 should always be written with logic 0; if read they could
be either logic 0 or logic 1.

7.6.4 Alarm registers
When one or more of these registers are loaded with a valid minute, hour, day or weekday
and its corresponding bit Alarm Enable (AE) is logic 0, then that information will be
compared with the current minute, hour, day and weekday. When all enabled comparisons
first match, the Alarm Flag (AF) is set. AF will remain set until cleared by software.
Once AF has been cleared it will only be set again when the time increments to match the
alarm condition once more. Alarm registers which have their bit AE at logic 1 will be
ignored.

7.6.6 Countdown timer
The timer register is an 8-bit binary countdown timer. It is enabled and disabled via the
timer control register bit TE. The source clock for the timer is also selected by the timer
control register. Other timer properties such as interrupt generation are controlled via
control_status_2 register.
For accurate read back of the countdown value, the I2C-bus clock (SCL) must be
operating at a frequency of at least twice the selected timer clock.

7.7 EXT_CLK test mode
A Test mode is available which allows for on-board testing. In such a mode it is possible to
set up test conditions and control the operation of the RTC.
The Test mode is entered by setting bit TEST1 in control_status_1 register. Then
pin CLKOUT becomes an input. The Test mode replaces the internal 64 Hz signal with the
signal applied to pin CLKOUT. Every 64 positive edges applied to pin CLKOUT will then
generate an increment of one second.
The signal applied to pin CLKOUT should have a minimum pulse width of 300 ns and a
minimum period of 1000 ns. The internal 64 Hz clock, now sourced from CLKOUT, is
divided down to 1 Hz by a 26divide chain called a pre-scaler. The pre-scaler can be set
into a known state by using bit STOP. When bit STOP is set, the pre-scaler is reset to 0
(STOP must be cleared before the pre-scaler can operate again).
From a STOP condition, the first 1 second increment will take place after 32 positive
edges on CLKOUT. Thereafter, every 64 positive edges will cause a one-second
increment.
Remark: Entry into EXT_CLK test mode is not synchronized to the internal 64 Hz clock.
When entering the Test mode, no assumption as to the state of the pre-scaler can be
made.

1. Set EXT_CLK test mode (control_status_1, bit TEST1 = 1)
2. Set STOP (control_status_1, bit STOP = 1)
3. Clear STOP (control_status_1, bit STOP = 0)
4. Set time registers to desired value
5. Apply 32 clock pulses to CLKOUT
6. Read time registers to see the first change
7. Apply 64 clock pulses to CLKOUT
8. Read time registers to see the second change
Repeat steps 7 and 8 for additional increments.
7.8 Power-On Reset (POR) override
The POR duration is directly related to the crystal oscillator start-up time. Due to the long
start-up times experienced by these types of circuits, a mechanism has been built in to
disable the POR and hence speed up on-board test of the device. The setting of this mode
requires that the I2C-bus pins, SDA and SCL, be toggled in a specific order as shown in
Figure 8. All timings are required minimums.
Once the Override mode has been entered, the device immediately stops being reset and
normal operation may commence i.e. entry into the EXT_CLK test mode via I2C-bus
access. The Override mode may be cleared by writing a logic 0 to TESTC. TESTC must
be set to logic 1 before re-entry into the Override mode is possible. Setting TESTC to
logic 0 during normal operation has no effect except to prevent entry into the POR
override mode.

[1] registers marked ‘x’ are undefined at power-up and unchanged by subsequent resets.
8. Characteristics of the I2C-bus
The I2C-bus is for bidirectional, two-line communication between different ICs or modules.
The two lines are a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be
connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor. Data transfer may be initiated only
when the bus is not busy.
8.1 Bit transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain
stable during the HIGH period of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time
will be interpreted as a control signal (see Figure 9).
8.2 Start and stop conditions
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW
transition of the data line, while the clock is HIGH is defined as the START condition (S). A
LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH is defined as the STOP
condition (P); see Figure 10.

8.3 System configuration
A device generating a message is a transmitter, a device receiving a message is a
receiver. The device that controls the message is the master and the devices which are
controlled by the master are the slaves (see Figure 11).
8.4 Acknowledge
The number of data bytes transferred between the START and STOP conditions from
transmitter to receiver is unlimited. Each byte of eight bits is followed by an acknowledge
bit. The acknowledge bit is a HIGH-level signal put on the bus by the transmitter during
which time the master generates an extra acknowledge-related clock pulse. A slave
receiver which is addressed must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each
byte. Also a master receiver must generate an acknowledge after the reception of each
byte that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter (see Figure 12).
The device that acknowledges must pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock
pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH period of the
acknowledge-related clock pulse (set-up and hold times must be taken into
consideration). A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not
generating an acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this
event the transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to generate a
STOP condition.

8.5 I2C-bus protocol
8.5.1 Addressing
Before any data is transmitted on the I2C-bus, the device which should respond is
addressed first. The addressing is always carried out with the first byte transmitted after
the start procedure.
The PCF8563 acts as a slave receiver or slave transmitter. Therefore the clock signal SCL
is only an input signal, but the data signal SDA is a bidirectional line.
The PCF8563 slave address is shown in Figure 13.
8.5.2 Clock/calendar read/write cycles
The I2C-bus configuration for the different PCF8563 read and write cycles is shown in
Figure 14,Figure 15 and Figure 16. The word address is a 4-bit value that defines which
register is to be accessed next. The upper four bits of the word address are not used.

12.1 Quartz frequency adjustment
12.1.1 Method 1: fixed OSCI capacitor
By evaluating the average capacitance necessary for the application layout, a fixed
capacitor can be used. The frequency is best measured via the 32.768 kHz signal
available after power-on at pin CLKOUT. The frequency tolerance depends on the quartz
crystal tolerance, the capacitor tolerance and the device-to-device tolerance (on average
±5×106). Average deviations of ±5 minutes per year can be easily achieved.
12.1.2 Method 2: OSCI trimmer
Using the 32.768 kHz signal available after power-on at pin CLKOUT, fast setting of a
trimmer is possible.
12.1.3 Method 3: OSCO output
Direct measurement of OSCO out (accounting for test probe capacitance).

14. Handling information
Inputs and outputs are protected against electrostatic discharge in normal handling.
However, to be completely safe you must take normal precautions appropriate to handling
MOS devices; see
JESD625-A and/or IEC61340-5
.
15. Soldering of SMD packages
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note
AN10365 “Surface mount reflow
soldering description”
.
15.1 Introduction to soldering
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high
densities that come with increased miniaturization.
15.2 Wave and reflow soldering
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:
Through-hole components
Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,
due to an increased probability of bridging.
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages
Package placement
Inspection and repair
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering
15.3 Wave soldering
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:

NXP Semiconductors PCF8563
Real-time clock/calendar
Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are
exposed to the wave
Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities
15.4 Reflow soldering
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:
Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 27) than a SnPb process, thus
reducing the process window
Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process
window for a mix of large and small components on one board
Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with
Table 29 and 30
Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all
times.
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow
soldering, see Figure 27.
