Table 8.
The frequency of tuning fork quartz crystal oscillators is temperature-dependent. In the
PCF2129A the frequency drift caused by temperature variation is corrected by adjusting
the load capacitance of the crystal oscillator.
The load capacitance is changed by switching between two load capacitance values using
a modulation signal with a programmable duty cycle. Every chip is calibrated in order to
produce, at the measured temperature, the correct duty cycle which compensates for the
frequency drift.
The frequency accuracy can be evaluated by measuring the frequency of the square
wave signal available at the output pin CLKOUT. However, the selection of

accurate frequency measurement occurs when f
The PCF2129A has a temperature sensor circuit used to perform the temperature
compensation of the frequency. The temperature is measured immediately after power-on
and then periodically with a period set by the temperature conversion rate TCR[1:0] in the
register CLKOUT_ctl.
Table 9.

A programmable square wave is available at pin CLKOUT. Operation is controlled by the
COF[2:0] control bits in register CLKOUT_ctl. 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.
CLKOUT is an open-drain output and enabled at power-on. When disabled, the output is
high-impedance.
The duty cycle of the selected clock is not controlled, however, due to the nature of the
clock generation all but the 32.768 kHz frequencies will be 50 : 50.
