§ Counters keep track of seconds for over 125
years
§ Battery powered counter counts seconds from
the time battery is attached until V
BAT

DESCRIPTION
The DS1602 is a real-time clock/elapsed time counter designed to count seconds when V
CC
power is
applied and continually count seconds under battery backup power with an additional counter regardless
of the condition of V
CC
. The continuous counter can be used to derive time of day, week, month, and year
by using a software algorithm. The V
CC
powered counter will automatically record the amount of time
that V
CC
power is applied. This function is particularly useful in determining the operational time of
equipment in which the DS1602 is used. Alternatively, this counter can also be used under software
control to record real-time eve nts. Communication to and from the DS1602 takes place via a 3-wire serial
port. A 1-byte protocol selects read/ write functions, counter clear functions and oscillator trim. A low
cost 32.768kHz crystal attaches directly to the X1 and X2 pins. If battery powered-only operation is
desired, the V
BAT
pin must be grounded and the V
CC
pin must be connected to the battery.
