8.7 Oscillator stop detection function

The PCF2127A has an on-chip oscillator detection circuit which monitors the status of the

oscillation: whenever the oscillation stops, a reset occurs and the oscillator stop flag OSF

(in register Seconds) is set logic 1.

• Power-on:

a. The oscillator is not running, the chip is in reset (pin RST is LOW and flag OSF is

logic 1).

b. When the oscillator starts running and is stable after power-on, the chip exits from

reset (pin RST is HIGH).

c. The flag OSF is still logic 1 and can be cleared (OSF set logic 0) via the interface.

• Power supply failure:

a. When the power supply of the chip (VDD or VBAT) drops below a certain value

(Vlow), typically 1.2 V, the oscillator stops running and a reset occurs.

b. When the power supply returns to normal operation, the oscillator starts running

again, the chip exits from reset.

c. The flag OSF is still logic 1 and can be cleared (OSF set logic 0) via the interface.

(1) Theoretical state of the signals since there is no power.

(2) The oscillator stop flag (OSF), set logic 1, indicates that the oscillation has stopped and a reset has

occurred since the flag was last cleared (OSF set logic 0). In this case the integrity of the clock

information is not guaranteed. The OSF flag is cleared using the interface.
