Real-time clock/calendar
Rev. 11 — 26 October 2015
Product data sheet
1. General description
The PCF8563 is a CMOS
1
Real-Time Clock (RTC) and 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
I
2
C-bus. Maximum bus speed is 400 kbit/s. The register address is incremented
automatically after each written or read data byte.
2. Features and benefits
Provides year, month, day, weekday, hours, minutes, and seconds based on a
32.768 kHz quartz crystal

Description
The die paddle (exposed pad) is connected to V
SS
through high ohmic (non-conductive) silicon attach and
should be electrically isolated. It is good engineering practice to solder the exposed pad to an electrically
isolated PCB copper pad for better heat transfer but it is not required as the RTC doesn’t consume much
power. In no case should traces be run under the package exposed pad.
