Power-Down/Power-Up Cycle
UIP OS2 OS1 OS0 RS3 RS2 RS1 RS0
The bq3285ED and bq3285LD power-up/power-down cy-
cles are different. The bq3285LD continuously monitors
VCC for out-of-tolerance. During a power failure, when
VCC falls below VPFD (2.53V typical), the bq3285LD write-
protects the clock and storage registers. The power source
is switched to BC when VCC is less than VPFD and BC is
greater than VPFD, or when VCC is less than VBC and VBC

The bq3285ED continuously monitors VCC for out-of-
tolerance. During a power failure, when VCC falls below
VPFD (4.17V typical), the bq3285ED write-protects the
clock and storage registers. When VCC is below VBC (3V
typical), the power source is switched to BC. RTC opera-
tion and storage data are sustained by a valid backup
energy source. When VCC is above VBC, the power
source is VCC. Write-protection continues for tCSR time

Control/Status Registers
OS2 OS1 OS0
The four control/status registers of the bq3285ED/LD
are accessible regardless of the status of the update cy-
cle (see Table 4).
These three bits control the state of the oscillator and
divider stages. A pattern of 010 or 011 enables RTC op-
eration by turning on the oscillator and enabling the fre-
quency divider. This pattern must be set to turn the os-
cillator on and to ensure that the bq3285ED/LD keeps
time in battery-backup mode. A pattern of 11X turns the
oscillator on, but keeps the frequency divider disabled.
When 010 is written, the RTC begins its first update af-
ter 500ms.
