M41T81M6F

STMicroelectronics · Real-time Clocks (RTC) · SOIC-8

M41T81M6F from STMicroelectronics, in a SOIC-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 XI input Oscillator input. Connects to one terminal of the external 32.768 kHz crystal. Internal load capacitance (12.5 pF) is integrated on-chip.
2 XO output Oscillator output. Connects to the other terminal of the external 32.768 kHz crystal.
3 VBAT power_in Battery supply voltage. Connects to a small lithium button cell to sustain SRAM and clock operation when VCC falls below the switchover trip point.
4 VSS power_in Ground reference (0 V).
5 SDA bidirectional I2C serial data input/output (open-drain). Requires an external pull-up resistor to a positive supply. Supports 400 kHz Fast-mode I2C.
6 SCL input I2C serial clock input. Requires an external pull-up resistor to a positive supply. Supports 400 kHz Fast-mode I2C.
7 IRQ/FT/OUT/SQW output Multi-function open-drain output. Software-selectable between alarm interrupt (IRQ, active low), frequency test (FT), general output driver (OUT), or programmable square-wave (SQW). Square-wave function has the highest priority. Requires external pull-up.
8 VCC power_in Main supply voltage, 2.0 V to 5.5 V. When VCC falls below the VSO trip point (VBAT - 0.5 V typ), the device automatically switches to VBAT.
