The DS1315N-5+ is an IC component manufactured by Maxim Integrated. It is a real-time clock (RTC) module that offers accurate timing and date functionality. This device is widely used in various applications such as utility meters, automated systems, industrial equipment, and more.
Key features of the DS1315N-5+ include:
1. Real-Time Clock (RTC): The DS1315N-5+ has a built-in RTC that keeps track of time and date even when the main power is disconnected. It accurately maintains timekeeping with a low power consumption.
2. Non-Volatile Memory (NVRAM): This module includes non-volatile memory to store critical information such as calibration data, user settings, and alarm registers. The NVRAM ensures that data will not be lost during power interruptions.
3. Battery Backup: The DS1315N-5+ has an integrated battery backup feature that maintains the RTC and NVRAM operation even without the main power supply. This ensures continuous timekeeping and data retention during power failures.
4. Serial Interface: The module supports a serial interface for easy integration with microcontrollers or other digital systems. It uses a 3-wire interface (Clock, Data, and Chip Select) for communication, providing straightforward interfacing.
5. Alarm Features: The DS1315N-5+ offers alarm capabilities with programmable interrupt outputs
