4.1.1
0x00h – Contains the BCD seconds and 10 seconds.
The range is 00 to 59. Bit 7 in this register is used to
start or stop the on-board crystal oscillator. Setting this
bit to a ‘1’ starts the oscillator and clearing this bit to a
‘0’ stops the on-board oscillator.
0x01h – Contains the BCD minutes and 10 minutes.
The range is 00 to 59.
0x02h – Contains the BCD hour in bits 3:0. Bits 5:4
contain either the 10 hour in BCD for 24-hour format or
the AM/PM indicator and the 10-hour bit for 12-hour
format. Bit 6 determines the hour format. Setting this
bit to ‘0’ enables 24-hour format, setting this bit to ‘1’
enables 12-hour format.
0x03h – Contains the BCD day. The range is 1-7.
Additional bits are also used for configuration and
status.
• Bit 3 is the VBATEN bit. If this bit is set, the
• Bit 4 is the V
• Bit 5 is the OSCON bit. This is set and cleared by
0x04h – Contains the BCD date and 10 date. The
range is 01-31.
0x05h – Contains the BCD month. Bit 4 contains the
10 month. Bit 5 is the Leap Year bit, which is set during
a leap year and is read-only.
0x06h – Contains the BCD year and 10 year. The
Range is 00-99.
0x07h – Is the Control register.
• Bit 7 is the OUT bit. This sets the logic level on the
• Bit 6 is the SQWE bit. Setting this bit enables the
• Bits 5:4 determine which alarms are active.

0x08h is the Calibration register. This is an 8-bit
register that is used to add or subtract clocks from the
RTCC counter every minute. The MSB is the sign bit
and indicates if the count should be added or
subtracted. The remaining 7 bits, with each bit adding
or subtracting 2 clocks, give the user the ability to add
or subtract up to 254 clocks per minute.
0x09h is the unlock sequence address. To unlock write
access to the unique ID area in the EEPROM, a
sequence must be written to this address in separate
commands.

0x0Ah-0x0fh and 0x11-0x16h are the Alarm 0 and

bits with the following differences:
Locations 0x10h and 0x17h are reserved and should
not be used to allow for future device compatibility.
0x0Dh/0x14h has additional bits for alarm configu-
