Industry Leading RTC

The Ambiq Artasie® Real-Time Clock (RTC) delivers industry-leading ultra-low-power timekeeping with power consumption as low as 14 nA. Acting as an always-on “keep-alive” source, it enables the main MCU to remain powered down while monitoring for user-configurable wake events—extending battery life in IoT, wearable, medical, and battery-powered devices.

RTC

Apollo Families

The Ambiq Artasie® Real-Time Clock (RTC) provides the ultimate solution for innovative, energy-efficient devices that show what’s possible for wearables, smart hove devices, or medical applications.

01

Proprietary Calibration Algorithm

Artasie RTCs feature a proprietary calibration algorithm that digitally tunes both RC and crystal (XT) oscillator frequencies, achieving accuracy as low as ±2 ppm at a given temperature.

02

Ultra-Low Current Draw

Supports standard 32.768 kHz crystal (XT) oscillation mode for maximum frequency accuracy with ultra-low current consumption of 55 nA.

03

Advanced Timekeeping

Supports multiple oscillation modes—including RC oscillator and autocalibration modes—to balance power consumption, accuracy, and system design flexibility.

04

Full-Function RTC

A fully integrated RTC solution for MCUs and SoCs, capable of operating as a main RTC or a low-power co-processor for power-optimized sensor processing.
