Accurate RTC with 512 B RAM and Battery Backup – Selectable I²C-Bus Or SPI
PCF2127 Receive alerts
The PCF2127 is a CMOS Real Time Clock (RTC) and calendar with an integrated Temperature Compensated Crystal (Xtal) Oscillator (TCXO) and a 32.768 kHz quartz crystal optimized for very high accuracy and very low power consumption. The PCF2127 has 512 bytes of general-purpose static RAM, a selectable I2C-bus or SPI-bus, a backup battery switch-over circuit, a programmable watchdog function, a timestamp function, and many other features.
