DS3231MZ/V+T - 5ppm I2C RTC | Maxim Integrated | 8-SOIC
Teilenummer: DS3231MZ/V+T ✓ AktivDS3231MZ/V+T Übersicht
A real-time clock is a clock-and-calendar IC that tracks elapsed time independently of a host microcontroller. RTCs belong to the timing and clock IC category and provide timekeeping across resets, power interruptions, and low-power operating states. The DS3231MZ/V+T combines an I2C interface with a battery-backed timekeeping architecture, allowing a system to read current time through a two-wire serial bus while retaining calendar data during main-power loss.
Key features include ±5 ppm timing accuracy, temperature compensation, 400 kHz fast-mode I2C operation, an integrated battery input, and an 8-SOIC package with a 3.90 mm body width. The temperature-compensated MEMS architecture is intended to reduce sensitivity to ambient temperature changes compared with basic crystal-based RTC implementations. The I2C interface simplifies connection to microcontrollers, embedded processors, and industrial controller boards.
The DS3231MZ/V+T is designed for applications where wall-clock time is more useful than a simple counter. It can preserve timekeeping during short or extended power interruptions when a suitable backup battery is installed, allowing firmware to recover a valid date and time after restart. The 8-SOIC package also supports conventional surface-mount assembly and integration into compact embedded boards.
Typical uses include industrial control systems, access-control terminals, data loggers, environmental monitoring equipment, consumer appliances, and embedded IoT controllers. In these systems, the RTC can provide timestamps for sensor records and event logs even when the main processor resets. Design engineers should verify the battery type, backup-current budget, supply sequencing, pull-up resistors, and operating-temperature requirements for the specific system.

Typische Anwendungen
DS3231MZ/V+T ist geeignet für 6 Anwendungs: Industrial Data Loggers, Environmental Monitoring Equipment, Access Control and Security Terminals, Connected IoT Appliances, Consumer Equipment with Calendar Functions, Battery-Backed Embedded Control.
Industrial Data Loggers
The DS3231MZ/V+T fits industrial data loggers that must timestamp sensor readings even after a controller reset or brief supply interruption. Its ±5 ppm timing accuracy supports consistent event ordering, while the battery input preserves calendar time when the main rail is unavailable. The 8-SOIC package leaves board area for storage, communications, and sensor-conditioning circuitry. The I2C interface supports up to 400 kHz, allowing the host processor to read the clock register efficiently alongside other peripheral devices. Design verification should include the backup-battery chemistry, maximum backup current, pull-up values, and the operating-temperature range required by the logger enclosure.
Empfohlen
Environmental Monitoring Equipment
The DS3231MZ/V+T is suitable for environmental monitoring stations that record temperature, humidity, air-quality, or soil measurements on a common time axis. Temperature-compensated ±5 ppm timekeeping improves timestamp credibility compared with an uncompensated clock, particularly where records must be compared across daily or seasonal changes. Its 400 kHz I2C interface is suitable for polling the RTC from a microcontroller, and the 8-SOIC package is practical for compact field instruments. The system should reserve decoupling capacitance, define bus pull-ups, and validate whether the backup battery can sustain the required retention interval without excessive maintenance.
Empfohlen
Access Control and Security Terminals
The DS3231MZ/V+T can support access-control terminals that need a reliable clock for credential events, audit logs, and scheduled access rules. Its battery-backed calendar maintains time during controller restarts or local power interruptions, reducing timestamp gaps when mains power is unstable. The ±5 ppm accuracy and temperature compensation support dependable event chronology, while 400 kHz I2C communication provides a simple connection to the access controller. In outdoor or security installations, engineers should verify the full environmental and battery specifications and ensure the backup source is sized for the required retention period.
Empfohlen
Connected IoT Appliances
The DS3231MZ/V+T is well suited to connected appliances that synchronize operating schedules, display local timestamps, or create event histories. The RTC provides an independent calendar reference while the host microcontroller handles networking, user interaction, and application logic. Its compact 8-SOIC package is easier to incorporate into compact products than larger RTC packages, and the 400 kHz I2C bus allows straightforward connection to embedded controllers. Designers should confirm the main-supply limits, startup behavior, pull-up resistor values, and backup-battery requirements before committing the PCB layout.
Empfohlen
Consumer Equipment with Calendar Functions
The DS3231MZ/V+T provides a dependable local clock for consumer equipment such as kitchen appliances, timers, test instruments, and equipment with a display or scheduled operation. A temperature-compensated ±5 ppm reference avoids the drift associated with an ordinary unsynchronized timer, while the battery input preserves the time and calendar during mains interruptions. The I2C interface reduces wiring to two signal lines plus the required pull-ups, and the 8-SOIC package supports conventional PCB assembly. Final selection should account for backup-battery life, display update intervals, and the power rails present when the equipment starts.
Empfohlen
Battery-Backed Embedded Control
The DS3231MZ/V+T is appropriate for embedded controllers that retain real-time information while the primary supply is removed. Battery backup supports firmware to establish a valid calendar immediately after power restoration instead of waiting for external synchronization. The 400 kHz I2C interface permits shared-bus operation with sensors and memory, while the temperature-compensated ±5 ppm oscillator supports stable records in industrial or consumer environments. Designers must calculate backup-battery capacity from the RTC retention current, confirm the battery’s permitted chemistry and voltage, and verify that the I2C pull-ups remain within valid levels during startup and shutdown.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- Compact 8-SOIC implementation with 3.90 mm body width (vs. DS3231M+TRL)

- Temperature-compensated ±5 ppm timekeeping (vs. DS3231MZ+)
Designhinweise
Design the backup-power path around the complete battery-input specification in the manufacturer datasheet. The verified distributor data confirms that DS3231MZ/V+T maintains time during main-power interruption, but it does not provide the retention current or battery voltage. Calculate battery life from the actual retention current, temperature, self-discharge, and required outage duration. Confirm that the battery chemistry, charging approach, and any system power-source sharing are electrically acceptable.
Route the I2C clock and data traces as a compact, continuous pair from the RTC to the host controller, and place the required pull-up resistors near the bus master or according to the system’s rise-time budget. Keep the RTC supply decoupling capacitor close to its supply pin and provide a low-impedance ground return. Review the 400 kHz requirement against trace length, capacitance, pull-up strength, and any intervening switches before releasing the layout.
Do not treat DS3231SN# or DS3231M+TRL as automatic substitutes for this 8-SOIC device. The supplied comparison results identify DS3231M+TRL as a 16-pin WSOIC, and the available DS3231SN# comparison is not sufficient to prove exact pin compatibility. Likewise, the “+” ordering suffixes can represent temperature-grade or packaging differences. Verify the full ordering code, footprint drawing, pin names, supply limits, and backup-battery requirements before approving a substitution.
Compliance-Informationen
The supplied verified snippets do not explicitly state the target's RoHS, REACH, AEC-Q100, lead-free, halogen-free, or conflict-minerals status. No compliance claim has been inferred.
