M41T56
SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

The M41T56 TIMEKEEPER® is a low power, 512-
bit static CMOS RAM organized as 64 words by 8
bits. A built-in 32,768Hz oscillator (external crystal
controlled) and the first 8 bytes of the RAM are
used for the clock/calendar function and are con-
figured in binary coded decimal (BCD) format. Ad-
dresses and data are transferred serially via a two-
line, bi-directional bus. The built-in address regis-
ter is incremented automatically after each WRITE
or READ data byte.
The M41T56 clock has a built-in power sense cir-
cuit which detects power failures and automatical-
ly switches to the battery supply during power
failures. The energy needed to sustain the RAM
and clock operations can be supplied from a small
lithium coin cell.
Typical data retention time is in excess of 10 years
with a 50mAh, 3V lithium cell. The M41T56 is sup-
plied in an 8-lead Plastic SOIC package or a 28-
lead SNAPHAT® package.
The 28-pin, 330mil SOIC provides sockets with
gold plated contacts at both ends for direct con-
nection to a separate SNAPHAT housing contain-
ing the battery and crystal. The unique design
allows the SNAPHAT battery package to be
mounted on top of the SOIC package after the
completion of the surface mount process. Inser-
tion of the SNAPHAT housing after reflow pre-
vents potential battery and crystal damage due to
the high temperatures required for device surface-
mounting. The SNAPHAT housing is keyed to pre-
vent reverse insertion. The SOIC and battery/crys-
tal packages are shipped separately in plastic anti-
static tubes or in Tape & Reel form.
For the 28-lead SOIC, the battery/crystal package
(e.g., SNAPHAT) part number is “M4Txx-
BR12SH” (see Table 16., page 22).
Caution: Do not place the SNAPHAT battery/crys-

tal package “M4Txx-BR12SH” in conductive foam
as this will drain the lithium button-cell battery. Table 1. Signal Names

OPERATION

The M41T56 clock operates as a slave device on
the serial bus. Access is obtained by implementing
a start condition followed by the correct slave ad-
dress (D0h). The 64 bytes contained in the device
can then be accessed sequentially in the following
order: Seconds Register Minutes Register Century/Hours Register Day Register Date Register Month Register Years Register Control Register
9 to 64.RAM
The clock continually monitors VCC for an out of
tolerance condition. Should VCC fall below VPFD,
the device terminates an access in progress and
resets the device address counter. Inputs to the
device will not be recognized at this time to pre-
vent erroneous data from being written to the de-
vice from an out of tolerance system. When VCC
falls below VBAT, the device automatically switch-
es over to the battery and powers down into an ul-
tra low current mode of operation to conserve
battery life. Upon power-up, the device switches
from battery to VCC at VBAT and recognizes inputs
when VCC goes above VPFD volts.
2-Wire Bus Characteristics

This bus is intended for communication between
different ICs. It consists of two lines: one bi-direc-
tional for data signals (SDA) and one for clock sig-
nals (SCL). Both the SDA and the SCL lines must
be connected to a positive supply voltage via a
pull-up resistor.
The following protocol has been defined: Data transfer may be initiated only when the
bus is not busy. During data transfer, the data line must remain
stable whenever the clock line is High. Changes in the data line while the clock line is
High will be interpreted as control signals.
Accordingly, the following bus conditions have
been defined:
Bus not busy.
Both data and clock lines remain
High.
Start data transfer.
A change in the state of the
data line, from High to Low, while the clock is High,
defines the START condition.
Stop data transfer.
A change in the state of the
data line, from Low to High, while the clock is High,
defines the STOP condition.
Data valid.
The state of the data line represents
valid data when after a start condition, the data line
is stable for the duration of the High period of the
clock signal. The data on the line may be changed
during the Low period of the clock signal. There is
one clock pulse per bit of data.
Each data transfer is initiated with a start condition
and terminated with a stop condition. The number
of data bytes transferred between the start and
stop conditions is not limited. The information is
transmitted byte-wide and each receiver acknowl-
edges with a ninth bit.
By definition, a device that gives out a message is
called “transmitter,” the receiving device that gets
the message is called “receiver.” The device that
controls the message is called “master.” The de-
vices that are controlled by the master are called
“slaves.”
Acknowledge.
Each byte of eight bits is followed
by one Acknowledge Bit. This Acknowledge Bit is
a low level put on the bus by the receiver, whereas
the master generates an extra acknowledge relat-
ed clock pulse.
A slave receiver which is addressed is obliged to
generate an acknowledge after the reception of
each byte. Also, a master receiver must generate
an acknowledge after the reception of each byte
that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter.
The device that acknowledges has to pull down
the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse
in such a way that the SDA line is a stable Low dur-
ing the High period of the acknowledge related
clock pulse. Of course, setup and hold times must
be taken into account. A master receiver must sig-
nal an end-of-data to the slave transmitter by not
generating an acknowledge on the last byte that
has been clocked out of the slave. In this case, the
transmitter must leave the data line High to enable
the master to generate the STOP condition.

READ Mode

In this mode, the master reads the M41T56 slave
after setting the slave address (see Figure 10 and
Figure 11., page 9). Following the WRITE Mode
Control Bit (R/W = 0) and the Acknowledge Bit, the
word address An is written to the on-chip address
pointer. Next the START condition and slave ad-
dress are repeated, followed by the READ Mode
Control Bit (R/W = 1). At this point, the master
transmitter becomes the master receiver. The data
byte which was addressed will be transmitted and
the master receiver will send an Acknowledge Bit
to the slave transmitter. The address pointer is
only incremented on reception of an Acknowledge
Bit. The M41T56 slave transmitter will now place
the data byte at address An + 1 on the bus. The
master receiver reads and acknowledges the new
byte and the address pointer is incremented to An
+ 2. This cycle of reading consecutive addresses
will continue until the master receiver sends a
STOP condition to the slave transmitter.
An alternate READ Mode may also be implement-
ed, whereby the master reads the M41T56 slave
without first writing to the (volatile) address point-
er. The first address that is read is the last one
stored in the pointer, see Figure 12., page 10.
M41T56
WRITE Mode

In this mode the master transmitter transmits to
the M41T56 slave receiver. Bus protocol is shown
in Figure 13., page 10. Following the START con-
dition and slave address, a logic '0' (R/W = 0) is
placed on the bus and indicates to the addressed
device that word address An will follow and is to be
written to the on-chip address pointer. The data
word to be written to the memory is strobed in next
and the internal address pointer is incremented to
the next memory location within the RAM on the
reception of an acknowledge clock. The M41T56
slave receiver will send an acknowledge clock to
the master transmitter after it has received the
slave address and again after it has received the
word address and each data byte (see Figure 10).
Data Retention Mode

With valid VCC applied, the M41T56 can be ac-
cessed as described above with READ or WRITE
cycles. Should the supply voltage decay, the
M41T56 will automatically deselect, write protect-
ing itself when VCC falls between VPFD (max) and
VPFD (min). This is accomplished by internally in-
hibiting access to the clock registers and SRAM.
When VCC falls below the Battery Back-up
Switchover Voltage (VSO), power input is switched
from the VCC pin to the battery and the clock reg-
isters and SRAM are maintained from the attached
battery supply.
All outputs become high impedance. On power up,
when VCC returns to a nominal value, write protec-
tion continues for tREC.

time calculations, please see Application Note
AN1012.

CLOCK OPERATION

The eight byte clock register (see Table 3) is used
to both set the clock and to read the date and time
from the clock, in a binary coded decimal format.
Seconds, Minutes, and Hours are contained within
the first three registers. Bits D6 and D7 of Clock
Register 2 (Hours Register) contain the CENTU-
RY ENABLE Bit (CEB) and the CENTURY Bit
(CB). Setting CEB to a '1' will cause CB to toggle,
either from '0' to '1' or from '1' to '0' at the turn of
the century (depending upon its initial state). If
CEB is set to a '0,' CB will not toggle. Bits D0
through D2 of Register 3 contain the Day (day of
week). Registers 4, 5, and 6 contain the Date (day
of month), Month, and Years. The final register is
the Control Register (this is described in the Clock
Calibration section). Bit D7 of Register 0 contains
the STOP Bit (ST). Setting this bit to a '1' will cause
the oscillator to stop.
If the device is expected to spend a significant
amount of time on the shelf, the oscillator may be
stopped to reduce current drain. When reset to a
'0' the oscillator restarts within one second.
The seven Clock Registers may be read one byte
at a time, or in a sequential block. The Control
Register (Address location 7) may be accessed in-
dependently. Provision has been made to assure
that a clock update does not occur while any of the
seven clock addresses are being read. If a clock
address is being read, an update of the clock reg-
isters will be delayed by 250ms to allow the READ
to be completed before the update occurs. This
will prevent a transition of data during the READ.
Note: This 250ms delay affects only the clock reg-

ister update and does not alter the actual clock
time.

Keys: S = SIGN Bit
FT = FREQUENCY TEST Bit
ST = STOP Bit
OUT = Output level
X = Don't care
CEB = Century Enable Bit
CB = Century Bit
Note:1. When CEB is set to '1,' CB will toggle from '0' to '1' or from '1' to '0' every 100 years (dependent upon the initial value set). When CEB is set to '0,' CB will not toggle.
M41T56
Clock Calibration

The M41T56 is driven by a quartz-controlled oscil-
lator with a nominal frequency of 32,768Hz. The
devices are tested not to exceed 35 ppm (parts per
million) oscillator frequency error at 25°C, which
equates to about ±1.53 minutes per month. With
the calibration bits properly set, the accuracy of
each M41T56 improves to better than ±2 ppm at
25°C.
The oscillation rate of any crystal changes with
temperature (see Figure 14., page 13). Most clock
chips compensate for crystal frequency and tem-
perature shift error with cumbersome “trim” capac-
itors. The M41T56 design, however, employs
periodic counter correction. The calibration circuit
adds or subtracts counts from the oscillator divider
circuit at the divide by 256 stage, as shown in Fig-
ure 14., page 13. The number of times pulses are
blanked (subtracted, negative calibration) or split
(added, positive calibration) depends upon the
value loaded into the five-bit Calibration Byte
found in the Control Register. Adding counts
speeds the clock up, subtracting counts slows the
clock down.
The Calibration Byte occupies the five lower order
bits (D4-D0) in the Control Register (Addr 7). This
byte can be set to represent any value between 0
and 31 in binary form. Bit D5 is the Sign Bit; '1' in-
dicates positive calibration, '0' indicates negative
calibration. Calibration occurs within a 64 minute
cycle. The first 62 minutes in the cycle may, once
per minute, have one second either shortened by
128 or lengthened by 256 oscillator cycles. If a bi-
nary '1' is loaded into the register, only the first 2
minutes in the 64 minutes cycle will be modified; if
a binary 6 is loaded, the first 12 will be affected,
and so on.
Therefore, each calibration step has the effect of
adding 512 or subtracting 256 oscillator cycles for
every 125,829,120 actual oscillator cycles, that is
+4.068 or –2.034 ppm of adjustment per calibra-
tion step in the calibration register. Assuming that
the oscillator is in fact running at exactly 32,768Hz,
each of the 31 increments in the Calibration Byte
would represent +10.7 or –5.35 seconds per
month which corresponds to a total range of +5.5
or –2.75 minutes per month.
Two methods are available for ascertaining how
much calibration a given M41T56 may require.
The first involves simply setting the clock, letting it
run for a month and comparing it to a known accu-
rate reference (like WWV broadcasts). While that
may seem crude, it allows the designer to give the
end user the ability to calibrate his clock as his en-
vironment may require, even after the final product
is packaged in a non-user serviceable enclosure.
All the designer has to do is provide a simple utility
that accessed the Calibration Byte.
The second approach is better suited to a manu-
facturing environment, and involves the use of
some test equipment. When the Frequency Test
(FT) Bit, the seventh-most significant bit in the
Control Register, is set to a '1,' and the oscillator is
running at 32,768Hz, the FT/OUT pin of the device
will toggle at 512Hz. Any deviation from 512Hz in-
dicates the degree and direction of oscillator fre-
quency shift at the test temperature.
For example, a reading of 512.01024Hz would in-
dicate a +20ppm oscillator frequency error, requir-
ing a –10(XX001010) to be loaded into the
Calibration Byte for correction.
Note:
Setting or changing the Calibration Byte
does not affect the Frequency Test output fre-
quency.
