SUMMARY DESCRIPTION
The M48T251Y/V TIMEKEEPER®RAM is a
512Kbit x 8 non-volatile static RAM and real time
clock organized as 524,288 words by 8 bits. The
special DIP package provides a fully integrated
battery back-up memory and real time clock solu-
tion. In the event of power instability or absence, a
self-contained battery maintains the timekeeping
operation and provides power for a CMOS static
RAM. Control circuitry monitors VCC and invokes
writeprotectiontopreventdatacorruptioninthe
memory and RTC.
The clock keeps track of tenths/hundredths of sec-
onds, seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month,
and year information. The last day of the month is
automatically adjusted for months with less than
31 days, including leap year correction.
The clock operates in one of two formats:
a 12-hour mode with an AM/PM indicator; or
a 24-hour mode
The M48T251Y/V is a 32-pin (PM) DIP module
that integrates the RTC, the battery, and SRAM in
one package.
The modules are shipped in plastic, anti-static
tubes (see Table 13, page 20).

READ
A READ cycle executes whenever WRITE Enable
(WE) is high and Chip Enable (CE) is low (seeFig-
ure 6). The distinct address defined by the 19 ad-
dress inputs (A0-A18) specifies which of the 512K
bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data will be
accessed by the eight data output drivers within
the specified Access Time (tACC) after the last ad-
dress input signal is stable, the CE and OE access
times, and their respective parameters are satis-
fied. When CE tACC and OE tACC are not satisfied,
then data access times must be measured from
the more recent CE and OE signals, with the limit-
ing parameter being tCO (for CE)ort
OE (for OE)in-
stead of address access.
WRITE
WRITEMode(seeFigure7,page9andFigure8,
page 10) occurs whenever CE and WE signals are
low (after address inputs are stable). The most re-
cent falling edge of CE and WE will determine
when the WRITE cycle begins (the earlier, rising
edge of CE or WE determines cycle termination).
All address inputs must be kept stable throughout
the WRITE cycle. WE must be high (inactive) for a
minimum recovery time (tWR) before a subsequent
cycle is initiated. The OE control signal should be
kept high (inactive) during the WRITE cycles to
avoid bus contention. If CE and OE are low (ac-
tive), WE will disable the outputs for Output Data
WRITE Time (tODW) from its falling edge.

Data Retention Mode
Data can be read or written only when VCC is
greater than VPFD. When VCC is below VPFD (the
point at which write protection occurs), the clock
registers and the SRAM are blocked from any ac-
cess. When VCC falls below the Battery Switch
Over threshold (VSO), the device is switched from
VCC to battery backup (VBAT). RTC operation and
SRAM data are maintained via battery backup un-
til power is stable. All control, data, and address
signals must be powered down when VCC is pow-
ered down.
The lithium power source is designed to provide
power for RTC activity as well as RTC and RAM
data retention when VCC is absent or unstable.
The capability of this source is sufficient to power
the device continuously for the life of the equip-
ment into which it has been installed. For specifi-
cation purposes, life expectancy is ten (10) years
at 25°C with the internal oscillator running without
VCC. Each unit is shipped with its energy source
disconnected, guaranteeing full energy capacity.
When VCC is first applied at a level greater than
VPFD, the energy source is enabled for battery
backup operation. The actual life expectancy will
be much longer if no battery energy is used (e.g.,
when VCC is present).

PHANTOM CLOCK OPERATION
Communication with the Phantom Clock is estab-
lished by pattern recognition of a serial bit-stream
of 64 bits which must be matched by executing 64
consecutive WRITE cycles containing the proper
data 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 clock while disabling the memory.
Data transfer to and from the timekeeping function
is accomplished with a serial bit-stream under con-
trol of Chip Enable (CE), Output Enable (OE), and
WRITE Enable (WE). Initially, a READ cycle using
the CE and OE control of the clock starts the pat-
tern recognition sequence by moving the pointerto
the first bit of the 64-bit comparison register (see
Figure 10, page 15).
Next, 64 consecutive WRITE cycles are executed
using the CE and WE control of the device. These
64 WRITE cycles are used only to gain access to
the clock. Therefore, any address to the memory
is acceptable. However, the WRITE cycles gener-
ated 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 Phan-
tom Clock scratch pad.
When the first WRITE cycle is executed, it is com-
pared to Bit 1 of the 64-bit comparison register. If
a match is found, the pointer increments to the
next location of the comparison register and
awaits the next WRITE cycle.
If a match is not found, the pointer does not ad-
vance and all subsequent WRITE cycles are ig-
nored. If a READ cycle occurs at any time during
pattern recognition, the present sequence is abort-
ed and the comparison register pointer is reset.
Pattern recognition continues for a total of 64
WRITE cycles as described above until all of the
bits in the comparison register have been
matched. 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 cycles will cause the Phantom Clock to ei-
ther receive or transmit data on DQ0, depending
on the level of the OE pin orthe WE pin. Cycles to
other locations outside the memory block can be
interleaved with CE cycles without interrupting the
pattern recognition sequence or data transfer se-
quence to the Phantom Clock.

Clock Register Information
Clock information is contained in eight registers of
8 bits, each of which is sequentially accessed one
(1) bit at a time after the 64-bit pattern recognition
sequence has been completed. When updating
the clock registers, each must be handled in
groups of 8 bits. Writing andreading individualbits
within a register could produce erroneous results.
These READ/WRITE registers are defined in the
clock register map (see Table 10).
Data contained in the clock registers 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.
Clock Accuracy
The RTC is guaranteed to keep time accuracy to
with ±1 minute per month at 25°C. The clock is fac-
tory-tuned with special calibration elements, and
does not require additional calibration. Moderate
temperature deviation will have a negligible effect
in most applications.
AM-PM/12/24 Mode
Bit 7 of the hours register is defined as the 12-hour
or 24-hour mode select bit. When it is high, the 12-
hour mode is selected. In the 12-hour mode, Bit 5
is the AM/PM bit with the 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 used to control
the reset and oscillator functions. Bit4 controls the
reset pin input. When the reset bit is set to logic '1,'
the Reset Input pin is ignored. When the reset bit
logic is set to '0,' a low input on the reset pin will
cause the device to abort data transfer without
changing data in the timekeeping registers. Reset
operates independently of all other inputs. Bit 5
controls the oscillator. When set to logic '0,' the os-
cillator turns on and the RTC/calendar begins to
increment.
Zero Bits
Registers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 contain one (1) or
more bits that will always read logic '0.' When writ-
ing to these locations, either a logic '1' or '0' is ac-
ceptable.

Table 11. Phantom Clock AC Characteristics (M48T251Y)
Note: 1. Valid for Ambient Operating Temperature: TA=0to70°C;V
CC = 4.5 to 5.5V or 3.0 to 3.6V (except where noted).
2. These parameters are sampled with a 5 pF load and are not 100% tested.
3. tWP is specified as the logical AND of CE and WE.t
WP is measured from the latter of CE or WE going low to the earlier of CE or
WE going high.
4. tWR is a function of the latter occurring edge of WE or CE.
5. tDH and tDS are measured from the earlier of CE or WE going high.
