MCP79400T-I

Microchip Tech · Real Time Clocks · SOIC-8

MCP79400T-I from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 X1 input Crystal oscillator input for a 32.768 kHz tuning-fork crystal with external load capacitors, optimized for crystals with 6-9 pF load capacitance; it also serves as the external clock input when the device is configured for an external oscillator.
2 X2 output Crystal oscillator output for the 32.768 kHz crystal; it must be left floating when an external 32.768 kHz clock is applied to X1.
3 VBAT power_in Backup supply input that maintains the RTCC and SRAM when VCC is unavailable; connect to VSS if battery backup is not used.
4 VSS power_in Ground reference for the device.
5 SDA bidirectional Open-drain bidirectional I2C serial data line that requires a pull-up resistor to VCC (typically 10 kΩ for 100 kHz or 2 kΩ for 400 kHz), and may change only while SCL is low except for Start and Stop conditions.
6 SCL input I2C serial clock input that synchronizes data transfer to and from the device.
7 MFP output Open-drain multifunction output for alarm, square-wave, or general-purpose output that requires a pull-up resistor to VCC (typically 10 kΩ) and may be left floating if unused.
8 VCC power_in Primary power supply input, with an operating voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V as stated in the datasheet features list.
