Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
DS1341/DS1342
General Description
The DS1341/DS1342 low-current real-time clocks (RTCs)
are timekeeping devices that provide an extremely low
standby current, which permits longer life from a power
supply. The DS1341/DS1342 support high-ESR crystals,
which broaden the pool of usable crystals for the devices.
The DS1341 uses a 6pF crystal, while the DS1342 uses
a 12.5pF crystal. These devices are accessed through
an I2C serial interface. Other features include two timeof-day alarms, two interrupt outputs, a programmable
square-wave output, and a serial bus timeout mechanism.
The clock/calendar 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 24hr or 12hr format with an
AM/PM indicator.
The DS1341/DS1342 also include an input for synchronization. When a reference clock (e.g., 60Hz power line or
GPS 1PPS) is present at the CLKIN pin and the enable
external clock input bit (ECLK) is set to 1, the DS1341/
DS1342 RTCs are frequency-locked to the external clock
and the clock accuracy is determined by the external
source. In case of external clock failure, the clock is
switched to the crystal oscillator.
The devices are available in lead(Pb)-free/RoHScompliant, 8-pin µSOP or TDFN packages. The devices
support a -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.

Limits at -40°C are guaranteed by design; not production tested.
Voltage referenced to ground.
Specified with I2C bus inactive. Oscillator operational, INTCN = 1, ECLK = 0.
Applies to CLKIN/INTA and SQW/INTB only.
The minimum SCL clock frequency is limited by the bus timeout feature, which resets the serial bus interface if SCL is held
low for tTIMEOUT.
After this period, the first clock pulse is generated.
A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300ns for the SDA signal (referred to the VIHMIN of the SCL signal)
to bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
The maximum tHD:DAT need only be met if the device does not stretch the low period (tLOW) of the SCL signal.
A fast-mode device can be used in a standard-mode system, but the requirement tSU:DAT ≥ to 250ns must then be met.
This is automatically the case if the device does not stretch the low period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch
the low period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line tRMAX + tSU:DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250ns
before the SCL line is released.

Note 11: CB is the total capacitance of one bus line, including all connected devices, in pF.
Note 12: Guaranteed by design; not 100% production tested.
Note 13: The parameter tOSF is the period of time the oscillator must be stopped for the OSF flag to be set over the voltage range
of 2.4V ≤ VCC ≤ VCCMAX.
Note 14: The DS1341/DS1342 can detect any single SCL clock held low longer than tTIMEOUTMIN. The devices’ I2C interface is
in reset state and can receive a new START condition when SCL is held low for at least tTIMEOUTMAX. Once the device
detects this condition, the SDA output is released. The oscillator must be running for this function to work.

DS1341/DS1342
Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
Detailed Description
The DS1341/DS1342 low-current RTCs are timekeeping
devices that consume an extremely low timekeeping current, which permits longer life from a power supply. The
clock/calendar 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 through
2099. The clock operates in either a 24hr or 12hr format
with an AM/PM indicator.
The DS1341/DS1342 use an external 32.768kHz crystal.
The oscillator circuit does not require any external resistors or capacitors to operate. The devices support a highESR crystal, which broadens the pool of usable crystals
for the device. The DS1342 uses a 12.5pF crystal. The
DS1341 uses a 6pF crystal, which decreases oscillator
current draw, but is less commonly available than the
12.5pF crystals.
The DS1341/DS1342 also accept an external clock reference for synchronization. The external clock can be a
32.768kHz, 50Hz, 60Hz, or 1Hz source. When the enable
oscillator bit (EOSC) is a 0, the DS1341/DS1342 use the
oscillator for timekeeping. If the enable external clock
input bit (ECLK) is set to 1, the time base derived from
the oscillator is compared to the 1Hz signal that is derived
from the CLKIN signal. The conditioned signal drives the
RTC time and date counters. If the oscillator is disabled
and the CLKIN signal is absent, the time and date values
remain static, provided that VCC remains at a valid level.
When the external clock is lost or when the frequency
differs more than ±0.8% from the crystal frequency, the
signal derived from the crystal oscillator drives the RTC
counter.
Oscillator Circuit
The DS1341/DS1342 use an external 32.768kHz crystal. The oscillator circuit does not require any external
resistors or capacitors to operate. The DS1341 includes
integrated capacitive loading for a 6pF CL crystal, and
the DS1342 includes integrated capacitive loading for a
12.5pF CL crystal. See the Crystal Parameters table for
the external crystal parameters. The Functional Diagram
shows a simplified schematic of the oscillator circuit. The
startup time is usually less than 1 second when using a
crystal with the specified characteristics.
Clock Accuracy
When running from the internal oscillator, the accuracy of
the clock is dependent upon the accuracy of the crystal
and the accuracy of the match between the capacitive
load of the oscillator circuit and the capacitive load for
which the crystal was trimmed. Additional error is added
by crystal frequency drift caused by temperature shifts.
External circuit noise coupled into the oscillator circuit
can result in the clock running fast. Figure 2 shows a
typical PCB layout for isolation of the crystal and oscillator from noise. Refer to Application Note 58: Crystal
Considerations with Dallas Real-Time Clocks for detailed
information.
LOCAL GROUND PLANE (LAYER 2)
X1
CRYSTAL
X2
When ECLK is set to 0, the RTC counter is always driven
with the signal derived from the crystal oscillator. When
the EOSC bit is a 1 and the external clock source is
selected, the RTC counter is always clocked by the signal
from the CLKIN pin.
GND
Address and data are transferred serially through an I2C
serial interface. Other features include two time-of-day
alarms, two interrupts, a programmable square-wave output, and a bus timeout mechanism that resets the I2C bus
if it remains inactive for a minimum of tTIMEOUT.
Both devices are available in lead(Pb)-free/RoHScompliant, 8-pin µSOP or TDFN packages, and support
the -40°C to +85°C extended temperature range.

Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
DS1341/DS1342
External Synchronization
When an external clock reference is used, the input
from CLKIN/INTA is divided down to 1Hz by the divisor
selected by the CLKSEL[2:1] bits. The 1Hz from the
divider (Ext-1Hz, see the Functional Diagram) is used to
correct the 1Hz that is derived from the 32.768kHz oscillator (Osc-1Hz). As Osc-1Hz drifts in relation to Ext-1Hz,
Osc-1Hz is digitally adjusted.
As shown in the Functional Diagram, the three highest
frequencies driving the SQW/INTB pin are derived from
the uncorrected oscillator, while the 1Hz output is derived
from the adjusted Osc-1Hz signal.
Conceptually, the circuit can be thought of as two 1Hz
signals, one derived from the internal oscillator and the
other derived from the external reference clock, with the
oscillator-derived 1Hz signal being locked to the 1Hz
signal derived from the external reference clock. The
edges of the 1Hz signals do not need to be aligned with
each other. While the external clock source is present
and within tolerance, the Ext-1Hz and Osc-1Hz maintain
their existing lock, regardless of their edge alignment, with
periodic correction of the Osc‑1Hz signal. If the external
signal is lost and then regained sometime later, the signals relock with whatever new alignment exists (Figure 3).
The Ext-1Hz is used by the device as long as it is within
tolerance, which is about 0.8% of Osc-1Hz. While Ext1Hz is within tolerance, the skew between the two signals could shift until a change of approximately 7.8ms
accumulates, after which the Osc-1Hz signal is adjusted
(Figure 4). The adjustment is accomplished by digitally
adjusting the 32kHz oscillator divider chain.
If the difference between Ext-1Hz and Osc-1Hz is greater
than approximately 0.8%, Osc-1Hz runs unadjusted (see
Figure 3) and the loss of signal (LOS) is set, provided

the ECLK bit is set. The external clock reference must be
within the defined frequency tolerance prior to initializing
the LOS flag.
Register Map
Table 1 shows the map for the DS1341/DS1342 registers.
During a multibyte access, if the address pointer reaches
the end of the register space (0Fh), it wraps around to
location 00h. On either an I2C START or address pointer
incrementing to location 00h, the current time is transferred to a second set of registers. The time information
is read from these secondary registers while the clock
continues to run. This eliminates the need to reread the
registers in case the main registers update during a read.
I2C Interface
The I2C interface is guaranteed to operate when VCC is
between 1.8V and 5.5V and the EOSC bit is 0. The I2C
interface is accessible whenever VCC is at a valid level.
To prevent invalid device operation, the I2C interface
should not be accessed when VCC is below +1.8V.
If a microcontroller connected to the DS1341/DS1342
resets during I2C communications, it is possible that the
microcontroller and the DS1341/DS1342 could become
unsynchronized. When the microcontroller resets, the
DS1341/DS1342 I2C interface can be placed into a
known state by holding SCL low for tTIMEOUT. Doing so
limits the minimum frequency at which the I2C interface
can be operated. If data is being written to the device

and the Day register is set to 01.
Clock and Calendar (00h–06h)
Alarms (07h–0Dh)
The DS1341/DS1342 can be run in either 12hr or 24hr
mode. Bit 6 of the Hours register is defined as the 12hr
or 24hr mode select bit. When high, the 12hr mode is
selected. In the 12hr mode, bit 5 is the AM/PM bit, with a
content of 1 being PM. In the 24hr mode, bit 5 is the second bit of the 10hr field. The century bit (bit 7 of the Month
register) is toggled when the Years register increments
from 99 to 00. On a power-on reset (POR), the time and
The DY/DT bits (bit 6 of the alarm day/date registers)
control whether the alarm value stored in bits 0 to 5 of
that register reflects the day of the week or the date of
the month. If DY/DT is written to 0, the alarm is the result
of a match with date of the month. If DY/DT is written to
1, the alarm is the result of a match with day of the week.
The time and calendar information is obtained by reading the appropriate register bytes. The RTC registers are
illustrated in Table 1. The time and calendar are set or
initialized by writing the appropriate register bytes. The
contents of the time and calendar registers are in the
binary-coded decimal (BCD) format. The Day register
increments at midnight and rolls over from 7 to 1. Values
that correspond to the day-of-week are user-defined but
must be sequential (i.e., if 1 equals Sunday, then 2 equals
Monday, and so on). The CENT bit in the Month register
toggles when the Years register rolls over from 99 to
00. Illogical time and date entries result in an undefined
operation.
The DS1341/DS1342 contain two time-of-day/date
alarms. Alarm 1 can be set by writing to registers 07h–
0Ah. Alarm 2 can be set by writing to registers 0Bh–0Dh.
The alarms can be programmed to activate the CLKIN/
INTA or SQW/INTB outputs (see Table 5) on an alarm
match condition. Bit 7 of each of the time of day/date
alarm registers are mask bits. When all the mask bits for
each alarm are 0, an alarm only occurs when the values
in the timekeeping registers 00h–06h match the values
stored in the time of day/date alarm registers. The alarms
can also be programmed to repeat every second, minute,
hour, day, or date. Tables 2 and 3 show the possible alarm
settings. Configurations not listed in the tables result in
illogical operation. POR values are undefined.

Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
DS1341/DS1342
When the RTC register values match alarm register settings, the corresponding alarm flag bit (A1F or A2F) is
set to 1 in the Control/Status register. If the corresponding alarm interrupt enable bit (A1IE or A2IE) is also set
to 1 in the Control register, the alarm condition activates
the output(s) defined by the ECLK and INTCN bits (see
Table 5).
Control Register (0Eh)
Bit 7: Enable Oscillator (EOSC). When the EOSC bit
is 0, the oscillator is enabled. When this bit is a 1, the
oscillator is disabled. This bit is cleared (0) when power
is first applied.
Bit 6: No Function
Bit 5: Enable Glitch Filter (EGFIL). When the EGFIL
bit is 1, the 5µs glitch filter at the output of the crystal
oscillator is enabled. The glitch filter is disabled when
this bit is 0. Disabling the glitch filter is useful in reducing
power consumption. This bit is cleared (0) when power
is first applied.
Bits 4 and 3: Rate Select (RS[2:1]). These bits control the frequency of the square-wave output when the
square wave has been enabled. Table 4 shows the
square-wave frequencies that can be selected with the
RS bits. These bits are both set to 1 (32.768kHz) when
power is first applied.
The 32.768kHz oscillator is the source of all squarewave output frequencies. Frequencies above 1Hz are not
conditioned by CLKIN. The 1Hz output is the 32.768kHz
oscillator frequency, divided down to 1Hz and conditioned
by CLKIN, provided that the CLKIN frequency differs by
no more than ±0.8% from the crystal frequency. Cycleto-cycle jitter of the 1Hz square wave can be up to 2ms.
Bit 2: Interrupt Control (INTCN). This bit controls the
relationship between the two alarms and the interrupt
output pins. When the INTCN bit is 0, a square wave is
output on the SQW/INTB pin, and the state of the ECLK
bit determines the function of the CLKIN/INTA pin (see
Table 5). When the INTCN bit is 1 and the ECLK bit is a 0,
a match between the timekeeping registers and the alarm
1 registers activates the CLKIN/INTA pin (provided that the
alarm is enabled) and a match between the timekeeping
registers and the alarm 2 registers activates the SQW/
INTB pin (provided that the alarm is enabled). When the
INTCN bit is 1 and the ECLK bit is a 1, a match between
the timekeeping registers and the alarm 1 registers or a
match between the timekeeping registers and the alarm 2
registers activates the SQW/INTB pin (provided that the
alarm is enabled). This bit is cleared (0) when power is
first applied.
Bit 1: Alarm 2 Interrupt Enable (A2IE). When the A2IE
bit is 0, the alarm 2 interrupt function is disabled. When the
A2IE bit is 1, the alarm 2 interrupt function is enabled and
is routed to an output, based upon the steering defined by
the INTCN and ECLK bits, as noted in Table 5. Regardless
of the state of A2IE, a match between the timekeeping
registers and the alarm 2 registers (0Bh–0Dh) sets the
alarm 2 flag bit (A2F). This bit is cleared (0) when power
is first applied.
Bit 0: Alarm 1 Interrupt Enable (A1IE). When the A1IE
bit is 0, the alarm 1 interrupt function is disabled. When the
A1IE bit is 1, the alarm 1 interrupt function is enabled and
is routed to an output, based upon the steering defined by
the INTCN and ECLK bits, as noted in Table 5. Regardless
of the state of A1IE, a match between the timekeeping
registers and the alarm 1 registers (07h–0Ah) sets the
alarm 1 flag bit (A1F). This bit is cleared (0) when power
is first applied.

Bit 7: Oscillator Stop Flag (OSF). If the OSF bit is a 1,
that indicates the oscillator has stopped or was stopped
for some period of time, and could be used to judge the
validity of the clock and calendar data. This bit is edge
triggered and is set to 1 when the internal circuitry senses
the oscillator has transitioned from a normal run state to a
STOP condition. The following are examples of conditions
that can cause the OSF bit to be set:
1) Power is applied for the first time.
2) The voltage present on VCC is insufficient to support
oscillation.
3) The EOSC bit is turned off.
4) There are external influences on the crystal (e.g.,
noise, leakage, etc.).
This bit remains at 1 until written to 0. Attempting to write
OSF to 1 leaves the value unchanged.
Bit 6: Disable Oscillator Stop Flag (DOSF). This bit,
when set to 1, disables the sensing of the oscillator conditions that would set the OSF bit. OSF remains at 0 regardless of what happens to the oscillator. This bit is cleared
(0) when power is first applied. Disabling the oscillator
sensing is useful in reducing power consumption.
Bit 5: Loss of Signal (LOS). This status bit indicates the
state of the CLKIN pin. The bit is set to 1 when the RTC
counter is no longer conditioned by the external clock.
This happens when ECLK = 0, or when the clock signal at
CLKIN stops toggling, or when the CLKIN frequency differs more than ±0.8% from the selected input frequency.
This bit remains at 1 until written to 0. Attempting to write
LOS to 1 leaves the value unchanged. Clearing the LOS
flag when the CLKIN frequency is invalid inhibits subsequent detections of the input frequency deviation.
Bits 4 and 3: Select Clock Source (CLKSEL[2:1]).
These two register bits select the clock source to drive the
RTC counter. Table 6 lists the input frequencies that can
be selected. Upon power-up, the bits are cleared to 0 and
the 1Hz rate is selected.

Bit 2: Enable External Clock Input (ECLK). This bit
controls the direction of the CLKIN/INTA pin (see Table
5). When the ECLK bit is 1, the CLKIN/INTA pin is an
input, with the expected input rate defined by the state of
CLKSEL2 and CLKSEL1 (see Table 6).
When the ECLK bit is 0, the CLKIN/INTA pin is an interrupt
output (see Table 5). If the INTCN bit is 0, CLKIN/INTA
contains the status of A1F (provided that the A1IE bit is 1)
or A2F (provided that the A2IE bit is 1). If the INTCN bit is
1, CLKIN/INTA contains the status of A1F (provided that
the A1IE bit is 1).
This bit is set to 0 when power is first applied.
Bit 1: Alarm 2 Flag (A2F). A 1 in the alarm 2 flag bit indicates that the time matched the alarm 2 registers. This
flag can be used to generate an interrupt on either CLKIN/
INTA or SQW/INTB depending on the status of the INTCN
bit in the Control register. If the INTCN bit is set to 0 and
A2F bit is a 1 (and A2IE bit is also 1), the CLKIN/INTA pin
goes low. If the INTCN bit is set to 1 and A2F bit is 1 (and
A2IE bit is also 1), the SQW/INTB pin goes low. The A2F
bit is cleared when written to 0. This bit can only be written to 0. Attempting to write this bit to 1 leaves the value
unchanged.
Bit 0: Alarm 1 Flag (A1F). A 1 in the alarm 1 flag bit
indicates that the time matched the alarm 1 registers. If
the A1IE bit is also 1, the CLKIN/INTA pin goes low. A1F
is cleared when written to 0. This bit can only be written to 0. Attempting to write this bit to 1 leaves the value
unchanged.

I2C Serial Port Operation
I2C Slave Address
The DS1341/DS1342s’ slave address byte is D0h. The
first byte sent to the device includes the device identifier
and the R/W bit (Figure 5). The device address sent by
the I2C master must match the address assigned to the
device.
I2C Definitions
The following terminology is commonly used to describe
I2C data transfers.
Master Device: The master device controls the slave
devices on the bus. The master device generates SCL
clock pulses and START and STOP conditions.
Slave Devices: Slave devices send and receive data
at the master’s request.
Bus Idle or Not Busy: Time between STOP and
START conditions when both SDA and SCL are inactive and in their logic-high states. When the bus is idle,
it often initiates a low-power mode for slave devices.
START Condition: A START condition is generated by
the master to initiate a new data transfer with a slave.
Transitioning SDA from high to low while SCL remains
high generates a START condition. See Figure 1 for
applicable timing.
STOP Condition: A STOP condition is generated
by the master to end a data transfer with a slave.
Transitioning SDA from low to high while SCL remains
high generates a STOP condition. See Figure 1 for
applicable timing.
Repeated START Condition: The master can use
a repeated START condition at the end of one data
transfer to indicate that it immediately initiates a new
data transfer following the current one. Repeated
STARTs are commonly used during read operations
to identify a specific memory address to begin a data
transfer. A repeated START condition is issued identically to a normal START condition. See Figure 1 for
applicable timing.

WRITE BIT
Bit Write: Transitions of SDA must occur during the low
state of SCL. The data on SDA must remain valid and
unchanged during the entire high pulse of SCL plus the
setup and hold time requirements (see Figure 1). Data
is shifted into the device during the rising edge of the
SCL.
Bit Read: At the end of a write operation, the master
must release the SDA bus line for the proper amount
of setup time (see Figure 1) before the next rising edge
of SCL during a bit read. The device shifts out each bit
of data on SDA at the falling edge of the previous SCL
pulse and the data bit is valid at the rising edge of the
current SCL pulse. Remember that the master generates all SCL clock pulses including when it is reading
bits from the slave.
Acknowledge (ACK and NACK): An acknowledge
(ACK) or not acknowledge (NACK) is always the
ninth bit transmitted during a byte transfer. The device
receiving data (the master during a read or the slave
during a write operation) performs an ACK by transmitting a 0 during the ninth bit. A device performs a NACK
by transmitting a 1 during the ninth bit. Timing for the
ACK and NACK is identical to all other bit writes. An
ACK is the acknowledgment that the device is properly
receiving data. A NACK is used to terminate a read
sequence or as an indication that the device is not
receiving data.
Byte Write: A byte write consists of 8 bits of information transferred from the master to the slave (most significant bit first) plus a 1-bit acknowledgment from the
slave to the master. The 8 bits transmitted by the master are done according to the bit write definition and the
acknowledgment is read using the bit read definition.
Byte Read: A byte read is an 8-bit information transfer
from the slave to the master plus a 1-bit ACK or NACK
from the master to the slave. The 8 bits of information
that are transferred (most significant bit first) from the
slave to the master are read by the master using the bit
read definition, and the master transmits an ACK using
the bit write definition to receive additional data bytes.
The master must NACK the last byte read to terminate
communication so the slave returns control of SDA to
the master.
Slave Address Byte: Each slave on the I2C bus
responds to a slave address byte sent immediately
following a START condition. The slave address byte
contains the slave address in the most significant 7
bits and the R/W bit in the least significant bit. The

Figure 6. I2C Transactions
DS1341/DS1342s’ slave address is D0h and cannot
be modified by the user. When the R/W bit is 0 (such
as in D0h), the master is indicating it writes data to
the slave. If R/W = 1 (D1h in this case), the master is
indicating it wants to read from the slave. If an incorrect
slave address is written, the DS1341/DS1342 assume
the master is communicating with another I2C device
and ignore the communication until the next START
condition is sent.
Memory Address: During an I2C write operation, the
master must transmit a memory address to identify
the memory location where the slave is to store the
data. The memory address is always the second byte
transmitted during a write operation following the slave
address byte.
I2C Communication
See Figure 6 for an I2C communication example.
Writing a Single Byte to a Slave: The master must
generate a START condition, write the slave address
byte (R/W = 0), write the memory address, write
the byte of data, and generate a STOP condition.
Remember the master must read the slave’s acknowledgment during all byte write operations.
www.maximintegrated.com
Writing Multiple Bytes to a Slave: To write multiple
bytes to a slave, the master generates a START condition, writes the slave address byte (R/W = 0), writes the
starting memory address, writes multiple data bytes,
and generates a STOP condition.
Reading a Single Byte from a Slave: Unlike the write
operation that uses the specified memory address
byte to define where the data is to be written, the read
operation occurs at the present value of the memory
address counter. To read a single byte from the slave,
the master generates a START condition, writes the
slave address byte with R/W = 1, reads the data byte
with a NACK to indicate the end of the transfer, and
generates a STOP condition. However, since requiring
the master to keep track of the memory address counter is impractical, use the method for manipulating the
address counter for reads.
Manipulating the Address Counter for Reads: A
dummy write cycle can be used to force the address
counter to a particular value. To do this the master
generates a START condition, writes the slave address
byte (R/W = 0), writes the memory address where it
desires to read, generates a repeated START condition, writes the slave address byte (R/W = 1), reads
Maxim Integrated │ 14
DS1341/DS1342
Low-Current I2C RTCs for High-ESR Crystals
data with ACK or NACK as applicable, and generates
a STOP condition. See Figure 6 for a read example
using the repeated START condition to specify the
starting memory location.
Reading Multiple Bytes from a Slave: The read
operation can be used to read multiple bytes with a
single transfer. When reading bytes from the slave,
the master simply ACKs the data byte if it desires to
read another byte before terminating the transaction.
After the master reads the last byte it must NACK to
indicate the end of the transfer and then it generates a
STOP condition.
Using Open-Drain Outputs
The CLKIN/INTA output is open drain and, therefore,
requires an external pullup resistor to realize a logic-high
output level.
SDA and SCL Pullup Resistors
SDA is an open-drain output and requires an external pullup resistor to realize a logic-high level.
Because the DS1341/DS1342 do not use clock cycle
stretching, a master using either an open-drain output
with a pullup resistor or CMOS output driver (push-pull)
could be used for SCL.
Bus Timeout
To avoid an unintended I2C interface timeout, SCL should
not be held low longer than tTIMEOUTMIN. The I2C interface is in the reset state and can receive a new START
condition when SCL is held low for at least tTIMEOUTMAX.
When the device detects this condition, SDA is released
and allowed to be pulled high by the external pullup resistor. For the timeout function to work, the oscillator must be
enabled and running.
Applications Information
Power-Supply Decoupling
To achieve the best results when using the DS1341/
DS1342, decouple the VCC power supply with a 0.01µF
and/or 0.1µF capacitor. Use a high-quality, ceramic,
surface-mount capacitor if possible. Surface-mount components minimize lead inductance, which improves performance, and ceramic capacitors tend to have adequate
high-frequency response for decoupling applications.
