Part Number:MSP430F5659
Hello TI Expert,
I have got a question from our customer and they are seeing some problems about the Calendar function of RTC_B of MSP430FR5659.
[Problem]
They sometimes see the problem that the RTC Calendar value becomes strange.
Please see the attached log file that they are issuing "time" command every seconds.
This is their firmware command that can get Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minutes and Seconds.
Normally, it should increase 1 second but it is increasing 87 or 97 years every 1 second.
After reaching at 4095 years, it goes back to 0 year and increasing 87 or 97 years again.
[Question]
This calendar function is normally working correct but they sometimes see this problem.
They do not think there is any mistake in the configuration of UCS or RTC register.
They are also reading some RTCCTL registers when the problem occurs. But we do not think there are any problem in these register values.
Thus, we do not know what the problem is. Do you have any comment to this problem and give any advice?
It would be helpful if you can tell us any advice or tell us what point they should check.
Best Regards,
Nobu Arai
