Suntsu SLR32CN-32.768K

Suntsu’s new RTC (Real-Time Clock), SLR32CN-32.768K, has a built-in 32.768kHz TCXO with an I2C bus interface and provides ultra-low power consumption. The 32.768 kHz crystal is the long-standing RTC timekeeping standard — 2¹⁵ Hz divides cleanly to a one-second tick — and pairing it with an I²C interface and microamp-level current draw is what enables years of battery-backed timekeeping [1] [2].

New CMOS process technology achieves ultra-low current consumption of 0.5µA, with a high frequency stability of +/-5.0ppm over -40~85°C.

Suntsu’s precise high-temperature sensor and compensation circuit ensures high clock accuracy and supports calendar, clock, alarm, and wakeup timer functions [2]. Various power supply sources can be used.

Key features include

  • Built-in 32.768kHz TCXO
  • Supply voltages of 1.6V to 5.0V
  • Ultra-Low current consumption of 0.5µA
  • High stability of ±5.0ppm over -40~85°C
  • 3.2 x 2.5mm SMD package size
  • Auto power switching function
  • Support time accuracy to 1/16 second

Applications include

  • Industrial
  • Digital Camera
  • Communications
  • Handheld Instruments
  • Wearables
  • Battery powered devices
