Basic Operation

The real-time clock generates a 1-second signal from the count source selected in the RTCCSR
register and counts seconds, minutes, hours, a.m./p.m., a day, and a week.
The day and time to start the count can be set using registers RTCSEC, RTCMIN, RTCHR, RTCWK,
and the RTCPM bit in the RTCCR1 register. Current time and day are read from registers RTCSEC,
RTCMIN, RTCHR, RTCWK, and the RTCPM bit in the RTCCR1 register. However, do not read these
registers when the BSY bit in the RTCSEC register is 1 (while data is updated).
An interrupt request can be generated every second, minute, hour, day, or week. While bits RTCCMP1
to RTCCMP0 in the RTCCR2 register are 00b (no compare mode), use the RTCCR2 register to enable
one of the periodic interrupts triggered every second, minute, hour, day and week. When a periodic
interrupt is generated, the IR bit in the RTCTIC register becomes 1 (interrupt request).
Figure 20.3 shows Real-Time Clock Basic Operating Example, Figure 20.4 shows Time and Day
Change Procedure (No Compare Mode or Compare Mode 1), and Figure 20.5 shows Time and Day
Change Procedure (Compare Mode 2 or Compare Mode 3).
