Abstract: This app note provides example hardware and software for interfacing the MAX6900 with an 8051-type microcontroller.
Description
This app note shows how to interface a MAX6900 I²C-Compatible RTC (real-time clock) to an 8051-type microcontroller (µC) and provides example code showing basic interface routines. The microcontroller used in this example is the DS2250, and the software is written in C.
Operation
The program uses two general-purpose port pins on the micro to operate as a master on the I²C bus. The MAX6900 operates as a slave device on the same bus.Figure 1 . The software is shown in Figure 2 .
