    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® (Subthreshold 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.
