DS1390–DS1394
Low-Voltage SPI/3-Wire RTCs withrickle Charger
General DescriptionThe low-voltage serial-peripheral interface (SPI™)
DS1390/DS1391/DS1394 and the low-voltage 3-wire
DS1392/DS1393 real-time clocks (RTCs) are clocks/cal-
endars that provide hundredths of a second, seconds,
minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information.
The date at the end of the month is automatically
adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including
corrections for leap year. The clock operates in either
the 24-hour or 12-hour format with an AM/PM indicator.
One programmable time-of-day alarm is provided. A
temperature-compensated voltage reference monitors
the status of VCCand automatically disables the bus
interface and switches to the backup supply if a power
failure is detected. On the DS1390, a single open-drain
output provides a CPU interrupt or a square wave at
one of four selectable frequencies. The DS1391
replaces the SQW/INTpin with a RSToutput/
debounced input.
The DS1390, DS1391, and DS1394 are programmed
serially through an SPI-compatible, bidirectional bus.
The DS1392 and DS1393 communicate over a 3-wire
serial bus, and the extra pin is used for either a sepa-
rate interrupt pin or a RSToutput/debounced input.
All five devices are available in a 10-pin µSOP package,
and are rated over the industrial temperature range.

Interrupt Output. This pin is used to output the interrupt signal, if enabled by

This pin is combined with a debounced pushbutton input function. This pin
can be activated by a pushbutton reset request. This pin has an internal,

DS1390–DS1394
Low-Voltage SPI/3-Wire RTCs withrickle Charger
Detailed DescriptionThe DS1390–DS1394 RTCs are low-power clocks/calen-
dars with alarms. Address and data are transferred seri-
ally through a 4-wire SPI interface for the DS1390 and
DS1391 and through a 3-wire interface for the DS1392,
DS1393, and DS1394. The DS1390/DS1391 operate as a
slave device on the SPI serial bus. The DS1392/DS1393
operate using a 3-wire synchronous serial bus. Access is
obtained by selecting the part by the CSpin (CE on
DS1392/DS1393) and clocking data into/out of the part
using the SCLK and DIN/DOUT pins (I/O on
DS1392/DS1393). Multiple-byte transfers are supported
within one CSlow period (see the SPI Serial-Data Bus
section). The clocks/calendars provide hundredths of
seconds, seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month,
and year information. The alarm functions are performed
off all timekeeping registers, allowing the user to set high
resolution alarms. The date at the end of the month is
automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31
days, including corrections for leap year. The clocks
operate in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with an
AM/PM indicator. All five devices have a built-in tempera-
ture-compensated voltage reference that detects power
failures and automatically switches to the battery supply.
Additionally, the devices can provide trickle charging of
the backup voltage source, with selectable charging
resistance and diode voltage drops.

Power ControlThe power-control function is provided by a precise,
temperature-compensated voltage reference and a
comparator circuit that monitors the VCClevel. The
device is fully accessible and data can be written and
read when VCCis greater than VPF. However, when
VCCfalls below VPF, the internal clock registers are
blocked from any access. If VPFis less than VBACKUP,
the device power is switched from VCCto VBACKUP
when VCCdrops below VPF. If VPFis greater than
VBACKUP, the device power is switched from VCCto
VBACKUPwhen VCCdrops below VBACKUP.
Timekeeping operation and register data are main-
tained from the VBACKUPsource until VCCis returned to
nominal levels (Table 1). After VCCreturns above VPF,
read and write access is allowed after RSTgoes high
(Figure 5).
Oscillator CircuitAll five devices use an external 32.768kHz crystal. The
oscillator circuit does not require any external resistors
or capacitors to operate. Table 2 specifies several crys-
tal parameters for the external crystal. If a crystal is
used with the specified characteristics, the startup time
is usually less than one second.
Clock AccuracyThe accuracy of the clock is dependent upon the accu-
racy of the crystal and the accuracy of the match
between the capacitive load of the oscillator circuit and
the capacitive load for which the crystal was trimmed.
Additional error is added by crystal frequency drift
caused by temperature shifts. External circuit noise
coupled into the oscillator circuit can result in the clock
running fast. Figure 7 shows a typical PC board layout
for isolation of the crystal and oscillator from noise.
