MI and HMI: minute and half minute interrupt

The minute interrupt (bit MI) and half minute interrupt (bit HMI) are pre-defined timers for

generating interrupt pulses on pin INT; see Figure 8. The timers are running in sync with

the seconds counter (see Table 19 on page 19).

The minute and half minute interrupts must only be used when the frequency offset is set

to normal mode (MODE = 0), see Section 8.2.3. In normal mode, the interrupt pulses on

pin INT are 1⁄64 s wide.

When starting MI, the first interrupt will be generated after 1 second to 59 seconds. When

starting HMI, the first interrupt will be generated after 1 second to 29 seconds.

Subsequent periods do not have such a delay. The timers can be enabled independently

from one another. However, a minute interrupt enabled on top of a half minute interrupt is

not distinguishable.

The duration of the timer is affected by the register Offset (see Section 8.2.3). Only when

OFFSET[6:0] has the value 00h the periods are consistent.

8.2.2.3

TF: timer flag

The timer flag (bit TF) is set logic 1 on the first trigger of MI, HMI, or the countdown timer.

The purpose of the flag is to allow the controlling system to interrogate what caused the

interrupt: timer or alarm. The flag can be read and cleared by command.

The status of the timer flag TF can affect the INT pulse generation depending on the

setting of TI_TP (see Section 8.6.2 “Register Timer_mode” on page 28):

• When TI_TP is set logic 1

– an INT pulse is generated independent of the status of the timer flag TF

– TF stays set until it is cleared

– TF does not affect INT

In this example, the TF flag is not cleared after an interrupt.
