DS1743-100IND High-Precision RTC Module

The DS1743-100IND is a robust, high-precision real-time clock (RTC) module designed and manufactured by Maxim Integrated, a leader in analog and mixed-signal engineering. This RTC module is engineered to provide long-term timekeeping accuracy and reliability, making it an ideal component for industrial and mission-critical applications where time is of the essence.

Encased in a compact, power-efficient package, the DS1743-100IND integrates a quartz crystal and a lithium battery, which ensures that timekeeping continues uninterrupted for the life of the product, even in the event of a power failure. This self-contained feature makes it a highly dependable solution for systems that require an always-on time reference.

The module offers a wide range of features that cater to the demanding needs of industrial environments. It is designed to operate over an extended temperature range, typically from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for use in harsh conditions where temperature variations are common. The DS1743-100IND's industrial rating underscores its reliability and durability in challenging settings.

With a parallel interface, the DS1743-100IND provides ease of integration into existing systems. It includes registers for seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year with automatic leap year compensation valid up to the year 2100. Additionally, it comes with a programmable alarm and interrupt function that can be set to trigger on a variety of time-related events, adding to its versatility.

For data integrity, the DS1743-100IND features a nonvolatile (NV) SRAM with 256k x 8 bits of memory, which ensures that data is preserved even when the primary power is lost. This NV SRAM is directly accessible in the same manner as a conventional SRAM, but it does not require a battery backup to retain data.

Maxim Integrated's commitment to quality is evident in the DS1743-100IND, making it a reliable choice for system designers who need an RTC module that will perform consistently over time and under varying environmental conditions. Whether it's for data logging, industrial machinery, telecommunications, or network infrastructure, the DS1743-100IND is designed to keep your applications running on time, all the time.
