Artasie Real-Time Clock - AM1815

Artasie RTC AM1815 EVB AM1815SPIEVB

The Ambiq® Artasie Real-Time Clock AM1815 with Power Management provides a groundbreaking combination of ultra-low power coupled with a highly sophisticated feature set. With power requirements significantly lower than any other industry RTC (as low as 14 nA), these are the first semiconductors based on Ambiq’s innovative SPOT® (Sub-threshold Power Optimized Technology) CMOS platform.

Feature Highlights

RTC
Companion for Host Processors

Serves as a companion part for host processors including microcontrollers, radios, and digital signal processors.

3 Distinct Feature Groups

Includes three distinct feature groups: 1) baseline timekeeping, 2) advanced timekeeping, and 3) basic power management.

Ultra-Low Current Draw

Baseline timekeeping feature group supports the standard 32.786 kHz crystal (XT) oscillation mode for maximum frequency accuracy with an ultra-low current draw of 55 nA.

Proprietary Calibration Algorithm

A proprietary calibration algorithm allows the AM1815 to digitally tune the RC oscillator frequency and the XT oscillator frequency with accuracy as low as 2 ppm at a given temperature.

Advanced Timekeeping

Advanced timekeeping feature group supports two additional oscillation modes: 1) RC oscillator mode, and 2) Autocalibration mode.

Finite State Machine

Includes a finite state machine that can control a host processor as it transitions between sleep/reset states and active states.

Integrated Power Switch

Integrates a power switch with ~1 Ω impedance that can be used to cut-off ground current on the host microcontroller and reduce sleep current to <1 nA.
