    Ravi Rajan
    The document discusses the Real Time Clock (RTC) on the LPC2148 microcontroller. The RTC uses a separate 32.768 KHz oscillator to continuously keep track of the current time and date even when the main system power is off, powered by a backup battery. It has individual Time Counter Registers as well as Consolidated Time Registers that allow reading the time values with only three read operations for convenience.

    LPC2148 RTC Programming

    Real Time Clock (RTC)


    • Real Time Clock (RTC) is a time counter that counts
    real time continuously.

    • We can get present time details using RTC. It gives us


    time as well as date information.

    • RTC is clocked by separate 32.768 KHz oscillator to


    continuously keep track of current time.

    • RTC is powered either by main system power or


    separately by battery backup in absence of main
    system power.
    Time Counter Register
    Consolidated Time Registers

    • The values of the Time Counters can


    optionally be read in a consolidated format
    which allows the programmer to read all time
    counters with only three read operations.

    • There are 3 Consolidated Time Registers.

    • These registers are read only. New values


    should be written to Time Counter Registers.
