10.4 Operation 
10.4.1  Initial Settings of Registers after Power-On 
The RTC registers that store second, minute, hour, and day-of week data are not reset by a RES 
input. Therefore, all registers must be set to their initial values after power-on. Once the register 
setting are made, the RTC provides an accurate time as long as power is supplied regardless of a 
RES input. 
10.4.2 Initial Setting Procedure 
Figure 10.3 shows the procedure for the initial setting of the RTC. To set the RTC again, also 
follow this procedure. 
RTC operation is stopped.
RTC registers and clock count 
controller are reset.
Clock output and clock source are
selected and second, minute, hour, 
day-of-week,operating mode, and 
a.m/p.m are set.
RTC operation is started.
