GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DS1672 incorporates a 32-bit counter and power-monitoring functions. The 32-bit counter is designed to count seconds and can be used to derive time-of-day, week, month, month, and year by using a software algorithm. A precision, temperature-compensated reference and comparator circuit monitors the status of VCC.
