The MCP79520 SPI RTCC is highly integrated with memory and advanced features normally found in higher priced devices. By starting with a basic real-time clock, digital trimming was added for higher accuracy, a battery switchover for backup power, a timestamp to log power failures and three types of memory, which includes SRAM, EEPROM and a blank unique ID in a locked section of EEPROM. The ID is blank in this device, but can also be ordered with a 48-bit or 64-bit MAC Address.

General purpose SPI RTCC with features that target low power, security & communicationsapplications.
