UPIOs, RTC, Voltage Monitors, and Temp Sensor
RTC Register (Power-On State: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000)
The RTC register stores the 40-bit second and subsec-
ond count of the respective time-of-day and system
clocks.
SEC<31:0>: The second bits store the time-of-day
clock settings. It is a 32-bit binary counter with 1s reso-
lution that can keep time for a span of over 136 years.
Firmware in the µC can translate this time count to units
that are meaningful to the system (i.e., translate to cal-
endar time or as an elapsed time from some predefined
time = 0, such as January 1, 2000). The RTC runs con-
tinuously as long as RTCE = 1 (see the CLK_CNTL
Register section) and does not stop for reads or writes.
The counter increments when the subsecond counter
overflows. Set RWE = 1 to enable writing to the RTC
register. After writing to RWE, perform another write
and set RTCE = 1 to enable the RTC. A 40-bit burst
write operation, starting with SEC31 and finishing with
SUB0 is required to set the RTC second and subsec-
ond bits. If CS is brought high before the 40th rising
SCLK edge, the write is aborted and the RTC contents
are unchanged. The RTC register is loaded on the ris-
ing SCLK edge of the 40th bit (SUB0). A 40-bit burst
read operation, starting with SEC31 and finishing with
SUB0, is required to retrieve the current RTC second
and subsecond counts. The read command can be
aborted prior to receiving the 40th bit (SUB0) by raising
CS and any RTC data read to that point is valid. When
the read command is received, a snapshot of a valid
RTC second count is latched to avoid reading an erro-
neous, transitioning RTC value. Due to the asynchro-
nous nature of RTC reads, it is possible to have a
maximum 1s error between the actual and reported
times from the time-of-day clock. To prevent the data
from changing during a read operation, complete reads

of the RTC register in less than 1ms. The power-on
default state is 0000 0000 hex.
SUB<7:0>: The subsecond bits store the system clock.
This 8-bit binary counter has 3.9ms resolution (1/256Hz)
and a span of 1s. The subsecond counter increments in
single counts from 00 hex to FF hex before rolling over
again to 00 hex, at which time the RTC second counter
(SEC<31:0>) increments. The RTC runs continuously
(as long as RTCE = 1) and does not stop for reads or
writes. A 256Hz clock, derived from the 32kHz crystal,
increments this counter. Set the RWE = 1 bit to enable
writing to the RTC register. After writing to RWE, perform
another write, setting RTCE = 1, to enable the RTC. A
40-bit burst write operation, starting with SEC31 and fin-
ishing with SUB0, is required to set the RTC second and
subsecond bits. If CS is brought high before the 40th
rising SCLK edge, the write is aborted and the RTC con-
tents are unchanged. The RTC register is loaded on the
rising SCLK edge of the 40th bit (SUB0). A 40-bit burst
read operation, starting with SEC31 and finishing with
SUB0, is required to retrieve the current RTC second
and subsecond counts. The read command can be
aborted prior to receiving the 40th bit (SUB0) by raising

nous nature of RTC reads, it is possible to have a
maximum 1s error between the actual and reported
times from the time-of-day clock. To prevent the data
from changing during a read operation, complete reads
of the RTC registers occur in less than 1ms. The power-
on default state is 00 hex.
