EnerChip™ RTC CBC34803-M5C
The EnerChip RTC CBC34803-M5C combines a Real-Time Clock (RTC) and calendar optimized for low power applications with an integrated rechargeable solid state backup battery and all power management functions.
The EnerChip RTC ensures a seamless transition from main power to backup power in the event of power loss. The integrated power management circuit ensures thousands of charge-discharge cycles from the integrated EnerChip and manages battery charging, discharge cutoff, power switchover, and temperature compensation to maximize the service life of the device. The CBC34803 provides greater than 5 days of backup time in the event main power is interrupted. The integrated EnerChip recharges quickly, has extremely low self-discharge, is non-flammable, and RoHScompliant. The EnerChip is charged automatically anytime VDD is above 2.5V.
Data is transferred serially via an I2C-bus. Alarm and timer functions provide the option to generate a wake-up signal on an interrupt pin.
EnerChip RTC lasts the life of the system so you never have to change a battery. EnerChip RTC devices provide powerful single chip drop-in capabilities in the world’s smallest footprint.
