The MCP795B10-I/SL is an Integrated Circuit (IC) component designed and manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc. It offers a wide range of features and functionalities suitable for various applications.
Some of the key features of the MCP795B10-I/SL are:
1. Real-Time Clock (RTC): The MCP795B10-I/SL has a built-in RTC that accurately keeps track of time and date. It supports both 12-hour and 24-hour time formats, along with leap year compensation.
2. Backup Power: The IC has a backup power supply pin that allows it to maintain the RTC even when the main power source is unavailable. This ensures that the clock and other time-dependent functions keep running, even during power outages.
3. Alarm and Event System: The MCP795B10-I/SL supports programmable alarms and events. It offers multiple alarm outputs and interrupt sources, enabling the IC to wake up a microcontroller from sleep mode upon the occurrence of a specific event or when a specified time is reached.
4. Memory: It has 2KB of EEPROM memory, which can be used to store user-specific configuration settings, data logs, or any other important information.
5. I2C Interface: The IC utilizes the I2C communication protocol for interfacing with other devices or microcontrollers. This allows for easy integration and data exchange between different components in a system
