32.768kHz oscillator is not oscillating,

hussain1.bangalore · Apr 15, 2011

Hi

I have designed lpc 1768 board , all the devices connected to it is working well except RTC,,, i think oscillator is not working,,,

things is cross checked and replaced is

capacitor from 10pf to 39 pf
oscillator
and connected 1 megh ohm resistor across the oscillator

all these things have performed even though oscillator is not oscillating ,i have checked all recent threads & forums and followed the procedure even though no fruitfulll

please Help

thanks

There are several reported problems and complaints concerning the LPC1768's RTC, including:

3.1 RTC.1: The Real Time Clock (RTC) does not work reliably within the
temperature specification
Introduction:
The RTC is a set of counters for measuring time when system power is on, and optionally
when it is off. The RTC is clocked by a separate 32 kHz oscillator that produces a 1 Hz
internal time reference. The RTC is powered by its own power supply pin, VBAT, which
can be connected to a battery, externally tied to a 3 V supply, or left floating. The RTC can
operate over temperature range from 40 C to 85 C.
Problem:
The RTC does not work reliably within the temperature specification.
Work-around:
None.

Let you know if I come across any more info.

Here are some troubleshooting tips:

My own LPC1768 board with RTC didn't work, too. So here's my how to check RTC:

1. Don't connect anything to RTCX1-In (PIN16). Even my Tektronix 10x Voltage
probe can stop RTC.

2. Connect a 10x scope probe to RTCX2-Out (PIN18). If RTC isn't working you will
see a voltage of about 2.5V. If it's working you will see a 0.2V 32kHz
oscillation at 0.4V. So don't expect a huge amplitude.

3. VBAT shouldn't be a problem at all (connect it to VCC if it's not connected
to a battery)

4. If the crystal isn't working, change the caps. If this doesn't help, change
the crystal. My favorite is a TC26 crystal.

Here is some code correctly initializing the RTC from NXP:

Code:

int main(void)
{
 RTCInit();
 RTCStart();
 NVIC_EnableIRQ( RTC_IRQn) ;
}

Got the attached diagram from the datasheet

It shows you should connect the 32.768KHz crystal externally, if the crystal you have connected has failed try replacing it by the new one

Have you connected a battery to the Vbat pin of the controller

just for your reference
1.The RTC typically fails when Vi(VBAT) drops below 1.6 V.
2.When the RTC is not used, connect VBAT to VDD(REG)(3V3) and leave RTCX1 floating - make sure you notice this in the circuit.

Hope it works soon

hi sunil
thanks for u r reply

I have have one proto type board which is working,, but i ordered same boards of 100 no.s they r not working i tried with all the thing s which u have posted previously

bigdogguru · Apr 15, 2011

The reports I've read indicate the problem is very batch oriented. Some of the mbeds, which are LPC1768 based, had several problems including the RTC, while other units worked fine. I'll still keep an eye out for other workarounds or tips.

hussain1.bangalore · Apr 15, 2011

Hi the output of the oscillator pins is 0.7v and 0.01v and i don't think the output is correct

ckshivaram · Apr 15, 2011

it should be around 0.9 and 0.7v ............

is there any capacitors for the crystal???

ya sir capacitor value of 22pf i have used across the terminals of oscillator even though i m lacking of output

ckshivaram · Apr 15, 2011

what happens if you dont use any capacitors... even then it should work..... did you try replacing the crystal oscillator..... can you measure the frequency at those point using a multimeter or oscilloscope.....

You know things are bad when NXP's Errata sheet states:

Problem:
The RTC does not work reliably within the temperature specification.
Work-around:
None.

NXP announced that sometime this year they should have the problem solved with a new die. Of course this doesn't help all the people who have already purchased units of the previous design.

do you get any oscillations at those pins. Do you have a physical connection between crystal pin and port pins...

What is the exact date and lot or batch code on the LPC1768 chip? I know someone else who experienced a the same problem. I believe he has a sheet with defective lots, I have him check it for you.
