The current consumption of 240nA and operation down to 1.5V significantly increases the operational life of backup supplies, and allows for the potential use of low-cost MLCCs as a short term backup solution. The RTC also provides an accuracy of ±3.0ppm over a temperature range of -40 to +85°C. In addition to the lowest current and best accuracy of all temperature-compensated RTCs, the RV-8803-C7 also has the smallest ceramic package in the industry with an integrated 32.768KHz quartz crystal.
The RTC’s accurate timekeeping together with reliability of a power failure backup makes it suitable for a wide range of applications such as metering applications, embedded modules, data loggers, white goods, automotive, portable/wearable medical equipment and all types of POS systems.
This high-performance RTC module sets latest standards in size, accuracy and current consumption, while remaining very low-cost, enabling universal use in price-sensitive applications.
