M48T58, M48T58Y Description

1 Description
The M48T58/Y TIMEKEEPER® RAM is a 8 Kb x 8 non-volatile static RAM and real-time
clock. The monolithic chip is available in two special packages to provide a highly integrated
battery-backed memory and real-time clock solution.
The M48T58/Y is a non-volatile pin and function equivalent to any JEDEC standard
8b Kb x 8 SRAM. It also easily fits into many ROM, EPROM, and EEPROM sockets,
providing the non-volatility of PROMs without any requirement for special WRITE timing or
limitations on the number of WRITEs that can be performed.
The 28-pin, 600 mil DIP CAPHAT houses the M48T58/Y silicon with a quartz crystal and a
long life lithium button cell in a single package.
The 28-pin, 330 mil SOIC provides sockets with gold plated contacts at both ends for direct
connection to a separate SNAPHAT® housing containing the battery and crystal. The
unique design allows the SNAPHAT battery package to be mounted on top of the SOIC
package after the completion of the surface mount process. Insertion of the SNAPHAT
housing after reflow prevents potential battery and crystal damage due to the high
temperatures required for device surface-mounting. The SNAPHAT housing is keyed to
prevent reverse insertion. The SOIC and battery/crystal packages are shipped separately in
plastic anti-static tubes or in tape & reel form.
For the 28-lead SOIC, the battery/crystal package (e.g., SNAPHAT) part number is “M4T28-
BR12SH”.

2 Operation modes
As Figure 4 on page 7 shows, the static memory array and the quartz controlled clock
oscillator of the M48T58/Y are integrated on one silicon chip. The two circuits are
interconnected at the upper eight memory locations to provide user accessible
BYTEWIDE™ clock information in the bytes with addresses 1FF8h-1FFFh. The clock
locations contain the century, year, month, date, day, hour, minute, and second in 24 hour
BCD format (except for the century). Corrections for 28, 29 (leap year - valid until 2100), 30,
and 31 day months are made automatically. Byte 1FF8h is the clock control register. This
byte controls user access to the clock information and also stores the clock calibration
setting.
The eight clock bytes are not the actual clock counters themselves; they are memory
locations consisting of BiPORT™ READ/write memory cells. The M48T58/Y includes a
clock control circuit which updates the clock bytes with current information once per second.
The information can be accessed by the user in the same manner as any other location in
the static memory array.
The M48T58/Y also has its own power-fail detect circuit. The control circuitry constantly
monitors the single 5 V supply for an out-of-tolerance condition. When VCC is out of
tolerance, the circuit write protects the SRAM, providing a high degree of data security in the
midst of unpredictable system operation brought on by low VCC. As VCC falls below the
battery backup switchover voltage (VSO), the control circuitry connects the battery which
maintains data and clock operation until valid power returns.

Doc ID 2412 Rev 7 9/33
3 READ mode
The M48T58/Y is in the READ mode whenever W (WRITE enable) is high, E1 (chip enable
1) is low, and E2 (chip enable 2) is high. The unique address specified by the 13 address
inputs defines which one of the 8,192 bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data will be
available at the data I/O pins within address access time (tAVQV) after the last address input
signal is stable, providing that the E1, E2, and G access times are also satisfied. If the E1,
E2 and G access times are not met, valid data will be available after the latter of the chip
enable access times (tE1LQV or tE2HQV) or output enable access time (tGLQV).
The state of the eight three-state data I/O signals is controlled by E1, E2 and G. If the
outputs are activated before tAVQV, the data lines will be driven to an indeterminate state
until tAVQV. If the address inputs are changed while E1, E2 and G remain active, output data
will remain valid for output data hold time (tAXQX) but will go indeterminate until the next
address access.

M48T58, M48T58Y WRITE mode
Doc ID 2412 Rev 7 11/33
4 WRITE mode
The M48T58/Y is in the WRITE mode whenever W and E1 are low and E2 is high. The start
of a WRITE is referenced from the latter occurring falling edge of W or E1, or the rising edge
of E2. A WRITE is terminated by the earlier rising edge of W or E1, or the falling edge of E2.
The addresses must be held valid throughout the cycle. E1 or W must return high or E2 low
for a minimum of tE1HAX or tE2LAX from chip enable or tWHAX from WRITE enable prior to the
initiation of another READ or WRITE cycle. Data-in must be valid tDVWH prior to the end of
WRITE and remain valid for tWHDX afterward. G should be kept high during WRITE cycles to
avoid bus contention; although, if the output bus has been activated by a low on E1 and G
and a high on E2, a low on W will disable the outputs tWLQZ after W falls.

Data retention mode M48T58, M48T58Y
14/33 Doc ID 2412 Rev 7
5 Data retention mode
With valid VCC applied, the M48T58/Y operates as a conventional BYTEWIDE™ static
RAM. Should the supply voltage decay, the RAM will automatically power-fail deselect, write
protecting itself when VCC falls within the VPFD (max), VPFD (min) window. All outputs
become high impedance, and all inputs are treated as “don't care.
Note: A power failure during a WRITE cycle may corrupt data at the currently addressed location,
but does not jeopardize the rest of the RAM's content. At voltages below VPFD (min), the
user can be assured the memory will be in a write protected state, provided the VCC fall time
is not less than tF
. The M48T58/Y may respond to transient noise spikes on VCC that reach
into the deselect window during the time the device is sampling VCC. Therefore, decoupling
of the power supply lines is recommended.
When VCC drops below VSO, the control circuit switches power to the internal battery which
preserves data and powers the clock. The internal button cell will maintain data in the
M48T58/Y for an accumulated period of at least 7 years when VCC is less than VSO. As
system power returns and VCC rises above VSO, the battery is disconnected, and the power
supply is switched to external VCC. Write protection continues until VCC reaches VPFD (min)
plus trec (min). E1 should be kept high or E2 low as VCC rises past VPFD (min) to prevent
inadvertent WRITE cycles prior to system stabilization. Normal RAM operation can resume
trec after VCC exceeds VPFD (max).
For more information on battery storage life refer to the application note AN1012.
M48T58, M48T58Y Clock operations
Doc ID 2412 Rev 7 15/33
6 Clock operations
6.1 Reading the clock
Updates to the TIMEKEEPER® registers (see Ta b l e 5 ) should be halted before clock data is
read to prevent reading data in transition. The BiPORT™ TIMEKEEPER cells in the RAM
array are only data registers and not the actual clock counters, so updating the registers can
be halted without disturbing the clock itself.
Updating is halted when a '1' is written to the READ bit, D6 in the control register 1FF8h. As
long as a '1' remains in that position, updating is halted.
After a halt is issued, the registers reflect the count; that is, the day, date, and the time that
were current at the moment the halt command was issued.
All of the TIMEKEEPER registers are updated simultaneously. A halt will not interrupt an
update in progress. Updating is within a second after the bit is reset to a '0.'
6.2 Setting the clock
Bit D7 of the control register (1FF8h) is the WRITE bit. Setting the WRITE bit to a '1,' like the
READ bit, halts updates to the TIMEKEEPER® registers. The user can then load them with
the correct day, date, and time data in 24-hour BCD format (see Ta b l e 5 ). Resetting the
WRITE bit to a '0' then transfers the values of all time registers (1FF9h-1FFFh) to the actual
TIMEKEEPER counters and allows normal operation to resume. The bits marked as '0' in
Table 5 on page 16 must be written to '0' to allow for normal TIMEKEEPER and RAM
operation. After the WRITE bit is reset, the next clock update will occur within one second.
See the application note AN923 “TIMEKEEPER Rolling Into the 21st Century” for
information on century rollover.
6.3 Stopping and starting the oscillator
The oscillator may be stopped at any time. If the device is going to spend a significant
amount of time on the shelf, the oscillator can be turned off to minimize current drain on the
battery. The STOP bit is the MSB of the seconds register. Setting it to a '1' stops the
oscillator. The M48T58/Y is shipped from STMicroelectronics with the STOP bit set to a '1.'
When reset to a '0,' the M48T58/Y oscillator starts within 1 second.

R = READ bit
W = WRITE bit
ST = STOP bit
0 = Must be set to '0'
BLE = Battery low enable bit
BL = Battery low bit (read only)

Note: When CEB is set to '1,' CB will toggle from '0' to '1' or from '1' to '0' at the turn of the century
(dependent upon the initial value set).
When CEB is set to '0,' CB will not toggle. The WRITE bit does not need to be set to write to
CEB.
6.4 Calibrating the clock
The M48T58/Y is driven by a quartz-controlled oscillator with a nominal frequency of 32,768
Hz. The devices are tested not to exceed 35 ppm (parts per million) oscillator frequency
error at 25°C, which equates to about ±1.53 minutes per month. With the calibration bits
properly set, the accuracy of each M48T58/Y improves to better than +1/–2 ppm at 25°C.
The oscillation rate of any crystal changes with temperature (see Figure 8 on page 18).
Most clock chips compensate for crystal frequency and temperature shift error with
cumbersome “trim” capacitors. The M48T58/Y design, however, employs periodic counter
correction. The calibration circuit adds or subtracts counts from the oscillator divider circuit
at the divide by 256 stage, as shown in Figure 9 on page 18. The number of times pulses
are blanked (subtracted, negative calibration) or split (added, positive calibration) depends
upon the value loaded into the five calibration bits found in the control register. Adding
counts speeds the clock up, subtracting counts slows the clock down.
The calibration byte occupies the five lower order bits (D4-D0) in the control register 1FF8h.
These bits can be set to represent any value between 0 and 31 in binary form. Bit D5 is the

sign bit; '1' indicates positive calibration, '0' indicates negative calibration. Calibration occurs
within a 64 minute cycle. The first 62 minutes in the cycle may, once per minute, have one
second either shortened by 128 or lengthened by 256 oscillator cycles. If a binary '1' is
loaded into the register, only the first 2 minutes in the 64 minute cycle will be 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 oscillator
cycles for every 125,829,120 actual oscillator cycles, that is +4.068 or –2.034 ppm of
adjustment per calibration step in the calibration register. Assuming that the oscillator is in
fact running at exactly 32,768 Hz, each of the 31 increments in the calibration byte would
represent +10.7 or –5.35 seconds per month which corresponds to a total range of +5.5 or –
2.75 minutes per month.
Two methods are available for ascertaining how much calibration a given M48T58/Y may
require. The first involves simply setting the clock, letting it run for a month and comparing it
to a known accurate reference (like WWV broadcasts). While that may seem crude, it allows
the designer to give the end user the ability to calibrate his clock as his environment may
require, even after the final product is packaged in a non-user serviceable enclosure. All the
designer has to do is provide a simple utility that accesses the calibration byte.
The second approach is better suited to a manufacturing environment, and involves the use
of some test equipment. When the frequency test (FT) bit (D6 in the day register) is set to a
'1,' and D7 of the seconds register is a '0' (oscillator running), The frequency test (pin 1) will
toggle at 512 Hz. Any deviation from 512 Hz indicates the degree and direction of oscillator
frequency shift at the test temperature. For example, a reading of 512.01024 Hz would
indicate a +20 ppm oscillator frequency error, requiring a –10 (WR001010) to be loaded into
the calibration byte for correction.
The frequency test pin is an open drain output which requires a pull-up resistor for proper
operation. A 500-10 kΩ resistor is recommended in order to control the rise time.

6.5 Battery low flag
The M48T58/Y automatically performs periodic battery voltage monitoring upon power-up.
The battery low flag (BL), bit D6 of the flags register 1FFDh, will be asserted high if the
internal or SNAPHAT® battery is found to be less than approximately 2.5 V and the battery
low enable (BLE) bit has been previously set to '1.' The BL flag will remain active until
completion of battery replacement and subsequent battery low monitoring tests.
If a battery low is generated during a power-up sequence, this indicates that the battery
voltage is below 2.5 V (approximately), which may be insufficient to maintain data integrity.
Data should be considered suspect and verified as correct. A fresh battery should be
installed.
The SNAPHAT top may be replaced while VCC is applied to the device.
Note: This will cause the clock to lose time during the interval the SNAPHAT® battery/crystal top is
disconnected.
Note: Battery monitoring is a useful technique only when performed periodically. The M48T58/Y
only monitors the battery when a nominal VCC is applied to the device. Thus applications
which require extensive durations in the battery back-up mode should be powered-up
periodically (at least once every few months) in order for this technique to be beneficial.
Additionally, if a battery low is indicated, data integrity should be verified upon power-up via
a checksum or other technique.
6.6 Century bit
Bit D5 and D4 of clock register 1FFCh contain the CENTURY ENABLE bit (CEB) and the
CENTURY bit (CB). Setting CEB to a '1' will cause CB to toggle, 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.
Note: The WRITE bit must be set in order to write to the CENTURY bit.

6.7 VCC noise and negative going transients
ICC transients, including those produced by output switching, can produce voltage
fluctuations, resulting in spikes on the VCC bus. These transients can be reduced if
capacitors are used to store energy which stabilizes the VCC bus. The energy stored in the
bypass capacitors will be released as low going spikes are generated or energy will be
absorbed when overshoots occur. A bypass capacitor value of 0.1 µF (as shown in
Figure 10) is recommended in order to provide the needed filtering.
In addition to transients that are caused by normal SRAM operation, power cycling can
generate negative voltage spikes on VCC that drive it to values below VSS by as much as
one volt. These negative spikes can cause data corruption in the SRAM while in battery
backup mode. To protect from these voltage spikes, it is recommended to connect a
Schottky diode from VCC to VSS (cathode connected to VCC, anode to VSS). Schottky diode
1N5817 is recommended for through hole and MBRS120T3 is recommended for surface
mount.
