    Pins and functions compatible with the SMC5242 series Overview The RTC-72421/RTC-72423 module is a real time clock that can be connected directly to a microprocessor's bus. Its built-in crystal unit enables highly accurate timekeeping with no physical access required for adjustment and, since there is no need to connect external components, mounting and other costs can be reduced.

    The main leap and ordinary years since 1900 and into the future are listed on the right. [Leap years in the RTC-72421/72423] To identify leap years, the RTC-72421/RTC-72423 checks whether or not the year digits are divisible by four. As implied above, 2000 will be a leap year, and so no further correction will be necessary in that case.

    RTC-72421/72423 2. C register (control register D) (1) HOLD bit (D Use the HOLD bit when accessing the S and W registers. For details, see "Read/write of S to W registers" on page When the HOLD bit is 1, any incrementation in the count is held within the RTC. The held incrementation is automatically compensated for when the HOLD bit becomes 0.

    The output levels of the STD.P pin are low (down) and open circuit (up). Note: If the STD.P pin output remains low as set, subsequently generated interrupts are ignored. In order to prevent interrupts from being overlooked, write 0 to the IRQ FLAG bit before the next interrupt is generated, to return the STD.P pin to high.

    Application notes 1. Notes on handling In order to enable the RTC-72421/RTC-72423 module to operate at low power levels, C-MOS circuitry was used in the design of the chip. To prevent damage to this RTC, note the following points: (1) Static electricity While this module has built-in circuitry designed to protect it against electrostatic discharge, the chip could still be damaged by a large discharge of static electricity.

    2. Notes on mounting (1) Soldering temperature conditions i. RTC-72421 Solder is used on the built-in crystal unit. Therefore, if the temperature within the package exceeds 150°C, the characteristics of the crystal unit will be degraded and it may be damaged. Either use a soldering bath or solder by hand.
