GN1302 from GN Semic, in a SOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC2 | power_in | Primary supply pin in the dual-supply configuration. VCC1 is connected to the backup supply and holds time/date when the main supply fails. The GN1302 runs from whichever of VCC1/VCC2 is higher: when VCC2 > VCC1 + 0.2 V, VCC2 powers the chip; when VCC1 > VCC2, VCC1 powers the chip. Operating range 2.0 V to 5.5 V. |
| 2 | X1 | passive | Connection to one terminal of an external 32.768 kHz crystal. Internal oscillator is designed for a crystal with 6 pF load capacitance. May alternatively be driven by an external 32.768 kHz oscillator signal on X1 (X2 left floating). |
| 3 | X2 | passive | Second terminal of the external 32.768 kHz crystal. Leave floating when X1 is driven by an external oscillator. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Power supply ground / reference for VCC1 and VCC2. |
| 5 | CE | input | Chip-enable input. Must be held high during any read or write on the 3-wire interface; going low terminates the transfer and places I/O in high-impedance. Has an internal ~40 kΩ (typ) pull-down to ground. |
| 6 | I/O | bidirectional | Bidirectional data pin of the 3-wire serial interface (push-pull output). Data is clocked in on SCLK rising edges and clocked out on SCLK falling edges. Has an internal ~40 kΩ (typ) pull-down to ground. |
| 7 | SCLK | input | Serial clock input used to synchronize data movement on the 3-wire interface. Has an internal ~40 kΩ (typ) pull-down to ground. Max clock rate 0.5 MHz at VCC=2.0 V, 2.0 MHz at VCC=5.0 V. |
| 8 | VCC1 | power_in | Backup / secondary supply pin, used with a single supply plus a battery, or with a low-power backup battery. When the internal programmable trickle charger is enabled, this pin connects to a rechargeable energy source (e.g. supercap, NiMH). UL requires care to prevent reverse charging current when using a lithium cell. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 387 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
