8.11.1 Timestamp flag
8.11 Timestamp function
The PCF2129A has an active LOW timestamp input pin TS, internally pulled with an
on-chip pull-up resistor to the internal power supply of the device. It also has a timestamp
detection circuit which can detect two different events:
The timestamp function is enabled by default after power-on and it can be switched off by
setting the control bit TSOFF (register Timestp_ctl).
A most common application of the timestamp function is described in the application note
Ref. 3
See
1. input on the pin TS is driven to an intermediate level between the power supply and
2. input on the pin TS is driven to ground.
1. When the TS input pin is driven to an intermediate level between the power supply
2. When the TS input pin is driven to ground the following sequence occurs:

and ground then the following sequence occurs:
a. The actual date and time are stored in the timestamp registers.
b. The timestamp flag TSF1 (register Control_1) is set.
c. If the TSIE bit (register Control_2) is active, an interrupt on the INT pin is
The TSF1 flag can be cleared by using the interface. Clearing the flag will clear the
interrupt. Once TSF1 is cleared it will only be set again when a new negative edge on
pin TS is detected.
a. The actual date and time are stored in the timestamp registers.
b. In addition to the TSF1 flag, the TSF2 flag (register Control_3) is set.
c. If the TSIE bit is active, an interrupt on the INT pin is generated.
