Real Time Clock (RTC)

PC compatible RTC chip

Usage in CPCs

Usage in SYMBiFACE II:Realtime clock: 

 Uses a Dallas DS12887A RTC chip, mapped to ports:
 FD14h SYMBiFACE II Real Time Clock - DS12887A RTC Data  (R/W)
 FD15h SYMBiFACE II Real Time Clock - DS12887A RTC Index (W)

Usage in Dk'tronics Real Time Clock: 

 Uses a Z80 PIO chip to control the HD146818 RTC chip via port A. Do not use Port A as this will affect the RTC operation.
 FBE0h  Dk'tronics Real Time Clock - Z80 PIO Port A Data (HD146818P RTC Data bus)
 FBE1h  Dk'tronics Real Time Clock - Z80 PIO Port B Data, used for external control (General Purpose 8bit I/O Port)
 FBE2h  Dk'tronics Real Time Clock - Z80 PIO Port A Control
 FBE3h  Dk'tronics Real Time Clock - Z80 PIO Port B Control
 FBE8h  Dk'tronics Real Time Clock - Control port for RTC chip (4bit latch) (details unknown)
 Port B is connected directly to a standard 9-way connector on the left of the interface.

Usage in Aleste 520EX - I/O Ports: 

 Uses a russian KR512WI1 chip (which is, according to the Aleste's Manual) compatible to western MC146818 chips. 
 Connects to a 32.768kHz crystal.
 Connects to the PPI:
   PPI Port A.Bit0-7 = Data bus
   PPI Port C.Bit0   = Read/Write   (0=Write, 1=Read)
   PPI Port C.Bit1   = Index Access (0=No, 1=Access)
   PPI Port C.Bit2   = Data Access  (0=No, 1=Access)
 In the Aleste's Ext Port, the RTC must be enabled, and PSG and 8253 must be disabled.
