Features
Key Features
- 32 kHz oscillator, amplitude regulated with excellent frequency stability
- High immunity of the oscillator to leakage currents
- Time calibration electrically programmable and reprogrammable (via EEPROM)
- A quartz crystal is the only external component required
- Very low current consumption; typically 170 nA
- Output for bipolar stepping motors of different types
- Up to 50% reduction in motor current compared with conventional circuits, by self adaption of the motor pulse width to match the required torque of the motor
- No loss of motor steps possible because of on-chip detection of the induced motor Voltage
- Detector for lithium or silver-oxide battery Voltage levels
- Indication for battery end-of-life
- Stop function for accurate timing
- Power-on reset for fast testing
- Various test modes for testing the mechanical parts of the watch and the IC
Part numbers include: PCA1462U.
