GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DS1339 serial real-time clock (RTC) is a low-
power clock/date device with two programmable time-
of-day alarms and a programmable square-wave
output. Address and data are transferred serially
through an I2C bus. The clock/date provides seconds,
minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year
information. The date at the end of the month is
automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31
days, including corrections for leap year. The clock
operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with
AM/PM indicator. The DS1339 has a built-in power-
sense circuit that detects power failures and
automatically switches to the backup supply,
maintaining time, date, and alarm operation.
APPLICATIONS
Handhelds (GPS, POS Terminals)

Recording, Network Appliance)
Office Equipment (Fax/Printers, Copier)
Medical (Glucometer, Medicine Dispenser)
Telecommunications (Routers, Switches, Servers)
Other (Utility Meter, Vending Machine, Thermostat,
Modem)
Pin Configurat ion s appe ar at end of data sheet.
