The AR-B1320 contains a real-time clock compartment that maintains the date and time in 
addition to storing configuration information about the computer system. It contains 14 bytes of 
clock and registers and 114 bytes of general purpose RAM. Because of the use of CMOS 
technology, it consumes very little power and can be maintained for long periods of time using an 
internal lithium battery.
