NR8576 series
Real-time Clock Modules
OVERVIEW
The NR8576 series devices are serial-interface type real-time clock module ICs with built-in crystal oscillator
elements. They feature timer counter circuits that keep track of time from the current second to the current
year, automatic leap-year adjustment, and a supply voltage detect function. Also, a 32.768kHz/1Hz select out-
put function is incorporated for independent hardware control. They are available in compact 14-pin SOPs
(NR8576A×) and miniature 18-pin SOPs (NR8576B×).

Description
Ground
Connect a
≥
0.1µF capacitor between VDD and VSS.
Chip enable.
HIGH: Enable
LOW: DATA goes high impedance; input on WR, CLK, and DATA stops; and the TM bit is cleared.
FOUT output frequency select.
HIGH: 1Hz
LOW: 32.768kHz
DATA input/output control switch.
HIGH: Data input mode (RTC write)
LOW: Data output mode (RTC read)
FOUT output enable control.
HIGH: The frequency selected by FSEL is output on FOUT.
LOW: FOUT goes high impedance.
Supply voltage.
Connect a
≥
0.1µF capacitor between VDD and VSS.
System clock input.
Data is input (RTC write mode) and output (RTC read mode) on the rising edge of CLK.
Data read and write input/output
Frequency output (output controlled by FOE and frequency selected by FSEL).
In 1Hz output mode, the 1Hz signal is synchronized to the internal 1 second signal.
FOUT output is not affected by the CE signal.
No connection. Leave open for normal use.
