RT/CMOS RAM
The RT/CMOS RAM (real-time clock/complementary metal-oxide
semiconductor RAM) module contains the real-time clock and 128
bytes of CMOS RAM. The clock circuitry uses 14 bytes of this
memory; the remainder is allocated to configuration and
system-status information. A battery is built into the module to keep
the RT/CMOS RAM active when the power supply is not turned on.
In addition to the 128 bytes of CMOS/RAM, a CMOS/RAM extension
of 4 KB is provided for configuration and other system information.
Figure 2-12 lists the RT/CMOS RAM bytes and their addresses.
