Connect these pines to a bi-directional data bus or CPU data bus. Use this bus
to read to and write from the internal counter and registers.

5, 7, 9, 10 Input
Address input pins used for connection to CPU address, etc. Used to select the
RTC’s internal counter and registers (address selection).
When the RTC is connected to a multiplexed-bus type of CPU, these pines can
also be used in combination with the ALE described below
ALE
(Address Latch Enable)
3 4 Input
Reads in address data and
CS
0
state for internal latching.
When the ALE is high, the address data and
CS
0
state is read into the RTC.
When the (through-mode) ALE falls, the address data and
CS
0
state at that
point are held. The held address data and
CS
0
status are maintained while
the ALE is low.

Read into the RTC to set address data
Held in the RTC (latched at the trailing edge of the ALE)
If the RTC is connected to a CPU that does not have an ALE pin and thus there
is no need to use this ALE pin, fix it to V
DD
.
WR
(WRite)
10 13 Input
Writes the data on D

to D
3
into the register of the address specified by A
0 to
A

at the leading edge of
WR .
Make sure that
RD
and
WR
are never low at the same time.
RD
(ReaD)
8 11 Input
Output data to D
0
to D
3
from the register at the address specified by A
0 to
A
3,
while
RD
is low.
Make sure that
RD
and
WR
are never low at the same time.
CS

,
CS
0
(Chip Select)
15,2 20,2 Input
When CS
1
is high and
CS
0
is low, the RTC’s chip-select function is valid and
read and write are enabled.
When the RTC is connected to a multiplexed-bus type of CPU,
CS
0
requires
the operation of the ALE (see the description of the ALE).
Use CS
1
connected to a power voltage detection circuit. When CS
1
is high, the
RTC is enabled; when it is low, the RTC is on standby.
When CS
1
goes low, the HOLD and RESET bits in the RTC registers are
cleared to 0.
STD.P
(STanDard Pulse)
1 1 Output
This is an N-channel open drain output pin.
Depending on the setting of the C
E
register, a fixed-period interrupt signal and a
pulse signal are output.
The output from this pin cannot be inhibited by the CS
1
and
CS
0
signals.
Use a load voltage that is less than or equal to V
DD
. If not using this pin, keep it
open-circuit.
An example of STD.P connection is shown below.
At least 2.2 k
Ω
STD.P
RTC
+5 V or V
DD
If the STD.P output is not be used during standby operation, connecting the pull-
up resister to +5 V provides a reduction in current consumption. If the STD.P
output is to be used even during standby, connect the pull-up resistor to the
RTC’s V
DD
. In this case, the current consumption will be increased by the
amount of current flowing through the pull-up resistor.
