CMOS
REAL-TIME CLOCK PLUS RAM (RTC)
(HIGH-PERFORMANCE SILICON-GATE COMPLEMENTARY MOS)
The MC146818 Real-Time Clock plus RAM is a peripheral device which includes the unique MOTEL concept for use with various microprocessors, microcomputers, and larger computers. This part
REAL-TIME CLOCK PLUS RAM
combines three unique features: a complete time-of-day clock with
alarm and one hundred year calendar, a programmable periodic inter-
rupt and square-wave generator, and 50 bytes of low-power static
RAM. The MC146818 uses high-speed CMOS technology to interface
I with 1 MHz processor buses, while consuming very little power. The Real-Time Clock plus RAM has two distinct uses.
