Integrated RTC, TCXO and quartz crystal

8.11 Timestamp function

The PCF2129A has an active LOW timestamp input pin TS, internally pulled with an

on-chip pull-up resistor to the internal power supply of the device. It also has a timestamp

detection circuit which can detect two different events:

1. input on the pin TS is driven to an intermediate level between the power supply and

ground.

2. input on the pin TS is driven to ground.

The timestamp function is enabled by default after power-on and it can be switched off by

setting the control bit TSOFF (register Timestp_ctl).

A most common application of the timestamp function is described in the application note

Ref. 3 “AN10857”.

See Section 8.12.5 for a description of interrupt generation from the timestamp function.

8.11.1 Timestamp flag

1. When the TS input pin is driven to an intermediate level between the power supply

and ground then the following sequence occurs:

a. The actual date and time are stored in the timestamp registers.

b. The timestamp flag TSF1 (register Control_1) is set.

c. If the TSIE bit (register Control_2) is active, an interrupt on the INT pin is

generated.

The TSF1 flag can be cleared by using the interface. Clearing the flag will clear the

interrupt. Once TSF1 is cleared it will only be set again when a new negative edge on

pin TS is detected.

2. When the TS input pin is driven to ground the following sequence occurs:

a. The actual date and time are stored in the timestamp registers.

b. In addition to the TSF1 flag, the TSF2 flag (register Control_3) is set.

c. If the TSIE bit is active, an interrupt on the INT pin is generated.
