3.4 RTC(32.768KHz Crystal)
The integrated Real Time Clock (RTC) is able to provide programmable alarm functions and external
interrupts. Due to its extreme low power consumption the RTC can be supplied from a small backup
battery. This allows the generation of external interrupts, even when the main Locosto supply voltage
is switched off. For this purpose the RTC is powered by own voltage supply pins VDD_RTC and
VSS_RTC.
The RTC shall be driven by a 32.768 kHz (32k) clock which needs to be applied via the Triton(ABB)
OSC32KIN and OSC32KOUT pins. The clock can be fed from either an external clock source or use
the on chip 32 KHz oscillator module.
The low clock frequency and the optimized low power design give the possibility to run the chip with a
minimum of power dissipation. For example, for this specific application the 26 MHz reference
oscillator can be switched off during system standby and a low- power time reference can be kept
when the 32k clock is provided to the RTC.
The RTC consists of an Locosto specific RTC shell, containing the RTC macro, as well as the 32 kHz
oscillator, as described in the following sections. The module RTC Shell solely performs level
translation of the 32KHz clock to the VDD_LD1 power supply domain, and is not functionally
associated with the RTC.
