8.8 Clock output
8.9 External clock test mode
A programmable square wave is available at pin CLKOUT. Operation is controlled by
control bits COF[2:0] in register CLKOUT_control (0Dh). Frequencies of 32.768 kHz
(default) down to 1 Hz can be generated for use as a system clock, microcontroller clock,
input to a charge pump, or for calibration of the oscillator.
Pin CLKOUT is an open-drain output and enabled at power-on. When disabled the output
is LOW.
The duty cycle of the selected clock is not controlled, but due to the nature of the clock
generation, all clock frequencies, except 32.768 kHz, have a duty cycle of 50 : 50.
The ‘stop’ function can also affect the CLKOUT signal, depending on the selected
frequency. When ‘stop’ is active, the CLKOUT pin will generate a continuous LOW for
those frequencies that can be stopped. For more details, see
Table 35.

A test mode is available which allows for on-board testing. In this mode it is possible to set
up test conditions and control the operation of the RTC.
The test mode is entered by setting bit EXT_TEST in register Control_1 making
pin CLKOUT an input. The test mode replaces the internal signal with the signal applied to
pin CLKOUT. Every 64 positive edges applied to pin CLKOUT generates an increment of
one second.
The signal applied to pin CLKOUT should have a minimum HIGH width of 300 ns and a
minimum period of 1000 ns. The internal clock, now sourced from pin CLKOUT, is divided
down to 1 Hz by a 2
be set into a known state by using bit STOP. When bit STOP is set, the prescaler is reset
to 0. STOP must be cleared before the prescaler can operate again.
From a stop condition, the first 1 second increment will take place after 32 positive edges
on pin CLKOUT. Thereafter, every 64 positive edges will cause a 1 second increment.
Remark: Entry into test mode is not synchronized to the internal 64 Hz clock. When
entering the test mode, no assumption as to the state of the prescaler can be made.
