The IDT5P90005 is a serial real-time clock (RTC) device that consumes ultra-low power and provides a full binary-coded decimal (BCD) clock/calendar. The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. The clock operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with AM/PM indicator. The end of the month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap year. Access to the clock/calendar registers is provided by an I2C interface capable of operating in fast I2C mode. Built-in Power-sense circuitry detects power failures and automatically switches to the backup supply, maintaining time and date operation.
