DESCRIPTION
The DS1672 incorporates a 32-bit counter and power monitoring functions. The 32-bit counter is designed to count seconds and can be used to derive time of day, week, month, month, and year by using a software algorithm. A precision temperature-pensated reference and parator circuit monitors the status of VCC. When an out-of-tolerance condition occurs, an internal power-fail signal is generated which forces the reset to the active state. When VCC returns to an in-tolerance condition, the reset signal is kept in the active state for 250 ms to allow the power supply and processor to stabilize.
OPERATION
The block diagram in Figure 1 shows the main elements of the DS1672. As shown, munications to and from the DS1672 occur serially over a 2-wire bi-directional bus. The DS1672 operates as a slave device on the serial bus. Access is obtained by implementing a START condition and providing a device identification code followed by a register address. Subsequent registers can be accessed sequentially until a STOP condition is executed.
