DESCRIPTION
The DS1243Y 64K NV SRAM with Phantom Clock is a fully static nonvolatile RAM (organized as 8192
words by 8 bits) with a built-in real time clock. The DS1243Y has a self-contained lithium energy source
and control circuitry, which constantly monitors VCC for an out-of-tolerance condition. When such a
condition occurs, the lithium energy source is automatically switched on and write protection is
unconditionally enabled to prevent corrupted data in both the memory and real time clock. The Phantom
Clock provides timekeeping information including hundredths of seconds, 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 correction for leap years. The Phantom Clock operates in either
24-hour or 12-hour format with an AM/PM indicator.

DS1243Y
RAM READ MODE
The DS1243Y executes a read cycle whenever WE (Write Enable) is inactive (high) and CE (Chip
Enable) is active (low). The unique address specified by the 13 address inputs (A0–A12) defines which of
the 8192 bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data will be available to the eight data output drivers
within tACC (Access Time) after the last address input signal is stable, providing that CE and OE (Output
Enable) access times and states are also satisfied. If OE and CE access times are not satisfied, then data
access must be measured from the later occurring signal ( CE or OE ) and the limiting parameter is either
tCO for CE or tOE for OE rather than address access.
RAM WRITE MODE
The DS1243Y is in the write mode whenever the WE and CE signals are in the active (low) state after
address inputs are stable. The latter occurring falling edge of CE or WE will determine the start of the
write cycle. The write cycle is terminated by the earlier rising edge of CE or WE . All address inputs must
be kept valid throughout the write cycle. WE must return to the high state for a minimum recovery time
(tWR) before another cycle can be initiated. The OE control signal should be kept inactive (high) during
write cycles to avoid bus contention. However, if the output bus has been enabled ( CE and OE active)
then WE will disable the outputs in t ODW from its falling edge.
DATA RETENTION MODE
The DS1243Y provides full functional capability for VCC greater than VTP and write protects by 4.25V.
Data is maintained in the absence of VCC without any additional support circuitry. The nonvolatile static
RAM constantly monitors VCC. Should the supply voltage decay, the RAM automatically write protects
itself. All inputs to the RAM become “don’t care” and all outputs are high impedance. As VCC falls below
approximately 3.0V, the power switching circuit connects the lithium energy source to RAM to retain
data. During power-up, when VCC rises above approximately 3.0V, the power switching circuit connects
external VCC to the RAM and disconnects the lithium energy source. Normal RAM operation can resume
after VCC exceeds 4.5V.
See “Conditions of Acceptability” at www.maxim-ic.com/TechSupport/QA/ntrl.htm
FRESHNESS SEAL
Each DS1243Y is shipped from Maxim with its lithium energy source disconnected, insuring full energy
capacity. When VCC is first applied at a level greater than VTP, the lithium energy source is enabled for
battery backup operation.

PHANTOM CLOCK OPERATION
Communication with the Phantom Clock is established by pattern recognition on a serial bit stream of 64
bits which must be matched by executing 64 consecutive write cycles containing the proper data on DQ0.
All accesses which occur prior to recognition of the 64–bit pattern are directed to memory.
After recognition is established, the next 64 read or write cycles either extract or update data in the
Phantom Clock, and memory access is inhibited.
Data transfer to and from the timekeeping function is accomplished with a serial bit stream under control
of Chip Enable ( CE ), Output Enable ( OE ), and Write Enable ( WE ). Initially, a read cycle to any memory
location using the CE and OE control of the Phantom Clock starts the pattern recognition sequence by
moving a pointer to the first bit of the 64–bit comparison register. Next, 64 consecutive write cycles are
executed using the CE and WE control of the SmartWatch. These 64 write cycles are used only to gain
access to the Phantom Clock. Therefore, any address to the memory in the socket is acceptable. However,
the write cycles generated to gain access to the Phantom Clock are also writing data to a location in the
mated RAM. The preferred way to manage this requirement is to set aside just one address location in
RAM as a Phantom Clock scratch pad. When the first write cycle is executed, it is compared to bit 0 of
the 64–bit comparison register. If a match is found, the pointer increments to the next location of the
comparison register and awaits the next write cycle. If a match is not found, the pointer does not advance
and all subsequent write cycles are ignored. If a read cycle occurs at any time during pattern recognition,
the present sequence is aborted and the comparison register pointer is reset. Pattern recognition continues
for a total of 64 write cycles as described above until all the bits in the comparison register have been
matched (this bit pattern is shown in Figure 1). With a correct match for 64 bits, the Phantom Clock is
enabled and data transfer to or from the timekeeping registers can proceed. The next 64 cycles will cause
the Phantom Clock to either receive or transmit data on DQ0, depending on the level of the OE pin or the
WE pin. Cycles to other locations outside the memory block can be interleaved with CE cycles without
interrupting the pattern recognition sequence or data transfer sequence to the Phantom Clock.
PHANTOM CLOCK REGISTER INFORMATION
The Phantom Clock information is contained in 8 registers of 8 bits, each of which is sequentially
accessed 1 bit at a time after the 64–bit pattern recognition sequence has been completed. When updating
the Phantom Clock registers, each register must be handled in groups of 8 bits. Writing and reading
individual bits within a register could produce erroneous results. These read/write registers are defined in
Figure 2.
Data contained in the Phantom Clock register is in binary coded decimal format (BCD). Reading and
writing the registers is always accomplished by stepping through all 8 registers, starting with bit 0 of
register 0 and ending with bit 7 of register 7.

AM-PM/12/24 MODE
Bit 7 of the hours register is defined as the 12- or 24-hour mode select bit. When high, the 12-hour mode
is selected. In the 12-hour mode, bit 5 is the AM/PM bit with logic high being PM. In the 24-hour mode,
bit 5 is the 20-hour bit (20–23 hours).
OSCILLATOR AND RESET BITS
Bits 4 and 5 of the day register are used to control the RESET and oscillator functions. Bit 4 controls the
RESET (pin 1). When the RESET bit is set to logic 1, the RESET input pin is ignored. When the RESET
bit is set to logic 0, a low input on the RESET pin will cause the Phantom Clock to abort data transfer
without changing data in the watch registers. Bit 5 controls the oscillator. When set to logic 1, the
oscillator is off. When set to logic 0, the oscillator turns on and the watch becomes operational. These
bits are shipped from the factory set to a logic 1, oscillator off.
ZERO BITS
Registers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 contain one or more bits that always read logic 0. When writing these
locations, either a logic 1 or 0 is acceptable.

NOTES:
1. WE is high for a read cycle.
2. OE = VIH or VIL. If OE = VIH during write cycle, the output buffers remain in a high impedance state.
3. tWP is specified as the logical AND of CE and WE . tWP is measured from the latter of CE or WE
going low to the earlier of CE or WE going high.
4. tDH, tDS are measured from the earlier of CE or WE going high.
5. These parameters are sampled with a 50pF load and are not 100% tested.
6. If the CE low transition occurs simultaneously with or later than the WE low transition in Write
Cycle 1, the output buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
7. If the CE high transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the WE high transition, the output
buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
8. If WE is low or the WE low transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the CE low transition,
the output buffers remain in a high impedance state during this period.
9. The expected tDR is defined as cumulative time in the absence of VCC with the clock oscillator
running.
10. tWR is a function of the latter occurring edge of WE or CE .
11. tDH and tDS are a function of the first occurring edge of WE or CE .
12. RST (Pin1) has an internal pullup resistor.
13. Real-Time Clock Modules can be successfully processed through conventional wave-soldering
techniques as long as temperature exposure to the lithium energy source contained within does not
exceed +85°C. Post-solder cleaning with water washing techniques is acceptable, provided that
ultrasonic vibration is not used.
