be tied to 5V since the VBAK (max) specification
will be exceeded. A 1 µF capacitor will keep
the companion functions working for about 1.5
second.
Although VBAK may be connected to VSS, this is not
recommended if the companion is used. None of the
companion functions will operate below about 2.5V.

! Note: systems using lithium batteries should clear
the VBC bit to 0 to prevent battery charging. The
VBAK circuitry includes an internal 1 K
Ω series
resistor as a safety element.
Register Map
The processor companion functions are accessed via 16 special function registers that are mapped to a separate 2-
wire device ID. The interface protocol is described below. The registers contain control bits, or information flags. A
description of each register follows.

*Note that the usable address range starts at address 09h to preserve software compatibility with the FM31xx
device family, which includes a real-time clock in registers 00-08h.
Note: When the device is first powered up and programmed, all registers must be written because the battery-
backed register values cannot be guaranteed. The table below shows the default values of the non-volatile
registers. All other register values should be treated as unknown.
