PCF8563 Real Time Clock (RTC) And Calendar IC – SOP-8 Package
The PCF8563 is a CMOS real-time clock/calendar optimized for low power consumption. A programmable clock output, interrupt output and voltage-low detector are also provided. All addresses and data are transferred serially via a two-line bidirectional I2C-bus. The maximum bus speed is 400 kbit/s. The built-in word address register is incremented automatically after each written or read data byte. A real-time clock (RTC) is an electronic device (most often in the form of an integrated circuit) that measures the passage of time.
Although the term often refers to the devices in personal computers, servers, and embedded systems, RTCs are present in almost any electronic device which needs to keep accurate time. The term real-time clock is used to avoid confusion with ordinary hardware clocks which are only signals that govern digital electronics and do not count time in human units. RTC should not be confused with real-time computing, which shares its three-letter acronym but does not directly relate to time of day. Although keeping time can be done without an RTC, using one has benefits such as Low power consumption (important when running from alternate power), frees the main system for time-critical tasks and sometimes more accurate than other methods. A GPS receiver can shorten its startup time by comparing the current time, according to its RTC, with the time at which it last had a valid signal. If it has been less than a few hours, then the previous ephemeris is still usable.
