WITH VOLTAGE MONITORING FUNCTION
RV5C387A
OUTLINE
NO.EA-080-0208
The RV5C387A is a CMOS real-time clock IC connected to the CPU by two signal, SCL and SDA, and configured to
perform serial transmission of time and calendar data to the CPU. The periodic interrupt circuit is configured to
generate interrupt signals with six selectable interrupts ranging from 0.5 seconds to 1 month. The 2 alarm circuits
generate interrupt signals at preset times. The oscillation circuit is driven under constant voltage so that fluctuations
in oscillation frequency due to voltage are small and supply current is also small (TYP. 0.35µA for the RV5C387A at
3 volts). The oscillation halt sensing circuit can be used to judge the validity of internal data in such events as
power-on. The supply voltage monitoring circuit is configured to record a drop in supply voltage below two
selectable supply voltage monitoring threshold settings. The 32-kHz clock output function (Nch. open drain) is
intended to output sub-clock pulses for the external microcomputer. The oscillation adjustment circuit is intended
to adjust time counts with high precision by correcting deviations in the oscillation frequency of the crystal
oscillator. The 32-kHz clock circuit can be disabled by certain register settings. This model comes in an ultra-
compact 10-pin SSOP-G (with a height of 1.20mm and a pin pitch of 0.5mm).
FEATURES
• Timekeeping supply voltage ranging from 1.45 to 5.5 volts
• Low supply current: TYP. 0.35µA (MAX. 0.8µA) at 3 volts
• Only two signal lines (SCL, SDA) required for connection to the CPU.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute Maximum ratings are threshold limit values that must not be exceeded even for an instant under
any conditions. Moreover, such values for any two items must not be reached simultaneously. Operation
above these absolute maximum ratings may cause degradation or permanent damage to the device. These
are stress ratings only and do not necessarily imply functional operation below these limits.
