Restrictions on Access Operations during Power-on Initialization and Recovery from Backup
•
RTC-register operations are linked to the internal quartz oscillator's clock signal, so normal operation is not
possible if there is no internal oscillation (= oscillation is stopped).
Therefore, we recommend that the initial setting to be set during power-on initialization or backup and restore
operations (i.e., when the power supply voltage is recovered after oscillation has stopped due to a voltage drop,
etc.) should be "first start internal oscillation, then wait for the oscillation stabilization time (see tSTA standard)
to
elapse".
•
Note the following caution points concerning access operations during power-on initialization or when restoring the
power supply voltage from backup mode (here after referred to as "switching to the operating voltage").
1) Before switching to the operating voltage, read the VLF-bit
(which indicates the RTC error status).
2) Initialization is required when the value read from the VLF-bit is "VLF
=
1
(error status)".
Before initializing in response to this VLF
=
"1"
result, we recommend first waiting for the internal oscillation
stabilization time
(see the tSTA standard) to elapse.
Initialization is required when the status after reading a VLF-bit value of "1"
is either of the following.
(Status 1)
During power-on initialization
(Status 2)
When the clock setting is invalid, such as due to a voltage drop during backup
