DS1371/DS1372/DS1374 32位二进制计数器

Abstract: This application note addresses how to convert the 32-bit time value into a date and time value that can be put in the form of MM/DD/YYYY, HH:MM:SS. An algorithm for converting from a date and time to binary seconds is also described.

Introduction

The DS1371 and DS1374 have a 32-bit binary counter RTC with a 2-wire interface. The 32-bit binary counters are designed to continuously count time in seconds. This application note addresses how to convert the 32-bit time value into a date and time value that can be put in the form of MM/DD/YYYY, HH:MM:SS. An algorithm for converting from a date and time to binary seconds is also described.

Both devices accumulate time information in a 4-byte register as the number of seconds since some arbitrary reference date. The date used in this application note is the same used with the UNIX operating system, the reference date January 1, 1970, often referred to as Unix Epoch. Note: Because of the reference date used and the use of a 32-bit counter, this algorithm rolls over on Tuesday, January 19, 03:14:07, 2038.

Binary Seconds to Date/Time

Figure 1 shows the basic algorithm used to convert raw seconds to a date/time. Below is a C implementation of the algorithm.

Date/Time to Binary Seconds

Figure 2 shows the basic algorithm used to convert date/time to raw seconds. Below is a C implementation of the algorithm.

unsigned long DS1371_DateToBinary(tm_struct *datetime) {

	unsigned long iday;
	unsigned long val;

	iday = 365 * (datetime->tm_year - 70) + DaysToMonth[datetime->tm_mon]
			+ (datetime->tm_mday - 1);
	iday = iday + (datetime->tm_year - 69) / 4;
	if ((datetime->tm_mon > 1) && ((datetime->tm_year % 4) == 0)) {
		iday++;
	}
	val = datetime->tm_sec + 60 * datetime->tm_min + 3600
			* (datetime->tm_hour + 24 * iday);
	return val;}

Testing

The C implementations used in this application note were thoroughly tested for each counter value over the 68-year span of the algorithm (from January 1, 1970 to January 18, 2038) and was found to be error free.
