DESCRIPTION
The DS1644 is a 32k x 8 nonvolatile static RAM with a full function real time clock, which are both
accessible in a byte-wide format. The nonvolatile timekeeping RAM is functionally equivalent to any
JEDEC standard 32k x 8 SRAM. The device can also be easily substituted for ROM, EPROM and
EEPROM, providing read/write nonvolatility and the addition of the real time clock function. The real
time clock information resides in the eight uppermost RAM locations. The RTC registers contain year,
month, date, day, hours, minutes, and seconds data in 24-hour BCD format. Corrections for the day of the
month and leap year are made automatically. The RTC clock registers are double-buffered to avoid access
of incorrect data that can occur during clock update cycles. The double-buffered system also prevents
time loss as the timekeeping countdown continues unabated by access to time register data. The DS1644
also contains its own power-fail circuitry, which deselects the device when the VCC supply is in an out-of-
tolerance condition. This feature prevents loss of data from unpredictable system operation brought on by
low VCC as errant access and update cycles are avoided.

PACKAGES
The DS1644 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 connection to a separate PowerCap (DS9034PCX)
that contains the crystal and battery. This design allows the PowerCap to be mounted on top of the
DS1644P 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 high temperatures required for solder
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.
CLOCK OPERATIONS—READING THE CLOCK
While the double-buffered register structure reduces the chance of reading incorrect data, internal updates
to the DS1644 clock registers should be halted before clock data is read to prevent reading of data in
transition. However, halting the internal clock register updating process does not affect clock accuracy.
Updating is halted when a 1 is written into the read bit, the 7th most significant bit in the control register.
As long as a 1 remains in that position, updating is halted. After a halt is issued, the registers reflect the
count, that is day, date, and time that was present at the moment the halt command was issued. However,
the internal clock registers of the double-buffered system continue to update so that the clock accuracy is
not affected by the access of data. All of the DS1644 registers are updated simultaneously after the clock
status is reset. Updating is within a second after the read bit is written to 0.

SETTING THE CLOCK
The MSB Bit, (B7) of the control register is the write bit. Setting the write bit to a 1, like the read bit,
halts updates to the DS1644 registers. The user can then load them with the correct day, date and time
data in 24-hour BCD format. Resetting the write bit to a 0 then transfers those values to the actual clock
counters and allows normal operation to resume.
STOPPING AND STARTING THE CLOCK OSCILLATOR
The clock oscillator may be stopped at any time. To increase the shelf life, the oscillator can be turned off
to minimize current drain from the battery. The OSC bit is the MSB for the seconds registers. Setting it to
a 1 stops the oscillator.
FREQUENCY TEST BIT
Bit 6 of the day byte is the frequency test bit. When the frequency test bit is set to logic 1 and the
oscillator is running, the LSB of the seconds register will toggle at 512 Hz. When the seconds register is
being read, the DQ0 line will toggle at the 512 Hz frequency as long as conditions for access remain valid
(i.e., CE low, OE low, and address for seconds register remain valid and stable).
CLOCK ACCURACY (DIP MODULE)
The DS1644 is guaranteed to keep time accuracy to within 1 minute per month at 25C. The RTC is
calibrated at the factory by Dallas Semiconductor using nonvolatile tuning elements, and does not require
additional calibration. For this reason, methods of field clock calibration are not available and not
necessary. Clock accuracy is also affected by the electrical environment and caution should be taken to
place the RTC in the lowest level EMI section of the PCB layout. For additional information please see
application note 58.
CLOCK ACCURACY (POWERCAP MODULE)
The DS1644 and DS9034PCX are each individually tested for accuracy. Once mounted together, the
module will typically keep time accuracy to within 1.53 minutes per month (35 ppm) at 25°C. Clock
accuracy is also affected by the electrical environment and caution should be taken to place the RTC in
the lowest level EMI section of the PCB layout. For additional information please see application note
58.

RETRIEVING DATA FROM RAM OR CLOCK
The DS1644 is in the read mode whenever WE (write enable) is high, and CE (chip enable) is low. The
device architecture allows ripple-through access to any of the address locations in the NV SRAM. Valid
data will be available at the DQ pins within tAA after the last address input is stable, providing that the CE
and OE access times and states are satisfied. If CE or OE access times are not met, valid data will be
available at the latter of chip enable access (tCEA) or at output enable access time (tOEA). The state of the
data input/output pins (DQ) is controlled by CE and OE . If the outputs are activated before tAA, the data
lines are driven to an intermediate state until tAA. If the address inputs are changed while CE and OE
remain valid, output data will remain valid for output data hold time (tOH) but will then go indeterminate
until the next address access.
WRITING DATA TO RAM OR CLOCK
The DS1644 is in the write mode whenever WE and CE are in their active state. The start of a write is
referenced to the latter occurring high to low transition of WE or CE . The addresses must be held valid
throughout the cycle. CE or WE must return inactive for a minimum of tWR prior to the initiation of
another read or write cycle. Data in must be valid tDS prior to the end of write and remain valid for tDH
afterward. In a typical application, the OE signal will be high during a write cycle. However, OE can be
active provided that care is taken with the data bus to avoid bus contention. If OE is low prior to WE
transitioning low the data bus can become active with read data defined by the address inputs. A low
transition on WE will then disable the outputs tWEZ after WE goes active.

DATA RETENTION MODE
When VCC is within nominal limits (VCC > 4.5 volts) the DS1644 can be accessed as described above with
read or write cycles. However, when VCC is below the power-fail point VPF (point at which write
protection occurs) the internal clock registers and RAM are blocked from access. This is accomplished
internally by inhibiting access via the CE signal. At this time the power-fail output signal (PFO ) will be
driven active low and will remain active until VCC returns to nominal levels. When VCC falls below the
level of the internal battery supply, power input is switched from the VCC pin to the internal battery and
clock activity, RAM, and clock data are maintained from the battery until VCC is returned to nominal
level.

NOTES:
1. All voltages are referenced to ground.
2. Typical values are at 25C and nominal supplies.
3. Outputs are open.
4. Data retention time is at 25C and is calculated from the date code on the device package. The date
code XXYY is the year followed by the week of the year in which the device was manufactured. For
example, 9225 would mean the 25th week of 1992.
5. tAH1, tDH1 are measured from WE going high.
6. tAH2, tDH2 are measured from CE going high.
7. Real-Time Clock Modules (DIP) can be successfully processed through conventional wave-soldering
techniques as long as temperatures as long as temperature exposure to the lithium energy source
contained within does not exceed +85C. Post solder cleaning with water washing techniques is
acceptable, provided that ultrasonic vibration is not used.
In addition, for the PowerCap version:
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 apply the soldering iron to leads for more than
3 (three) seconds. To solder, apply flux to the pad, heat the lead frame pad and apply solder. To
remove the part, apply flux, heat the lead frame pad until the solder reflows and use a solder wick
to remove solder.
