The DS17887-3+ is an advanced integrated circuit (IC) component, primarily designed to provide high-precision real-time clock (RTC) functionality. It is manufactured by Maxim Integrated, a reputable semiconductor company. This component offers several key features, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
One of the salient features of the DS17887-3+ is its exceptional accuracy. It utilizes a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) that ensures precise timekeeping over an extended period. With a typical accuracy of ±2 minutes per year, the DS17887-3+ guarantees reliable timekeeping operations.
Moreover, this IC component incorporates nonvolatile memory, allowing it to retain time and date information even when external power is disconnected or lost. This ensures that the clock continues to function accurately when power is restored.
The DS17887-3+ also provides multiple alarm capabilities, enabling users to set and schedule up to four independent alarms. These alarms can trigger specific events or actions based on specific date and time requirements, making the component suitable for various alarm-clock applications.
Additionally, the DS17887-3+ integrates a battery low detect feature, which monitors the voltage level of the backup power source. This functionality helps in preventing data loss due to power depletion by providing advanced warning or triggering specific actions when the backup power is running low
