RL78/G1A CHAPTER 7 REAL-TIME CLOCK
7.3.5 Second count register (SEC)
The SEC register is an 8-bit register that takes a value of 0 to 59 (decimal) and indicates the count value of seconds.
It counts up when the internal counter (16-bit) overflows.
When data is written to this register, it is written to a buffer and then to the counter up to two cycles of f
RTC later. Set a
decimal value of 00 to 59 to this register in BCD code.
<R>
The SEC register can be set by an 8-bit memory manipulation instruction.
Reset signal generation clears this register to 00H.
Remark The internal counter (16 bits) is cleared when the second count register (SEC) is written.

Caution When it reads or writes from/to the register while the counter is in operation (RTCE = 1), follow
the procedures described in 7.4.3 Reading/writing real-time clock.
7.3.6 Minute count register (MIN)
The MIN register is an 8-bit register that takes a value of 0 to 59 (decimal) and indicates the count value of minutes.
It counts up when the second counter overflows.
When data is written to this register, it is written to a buffer and then to the counter up to two cycles of f
RTC later. Even if
the second count register overflows while this register is being written, this register ignores the overflow and is set to the
value written. Set a decimal value of 00 to 59 to this register in BCD code.
<R>
The MIN register can be set by an 8-bit memory manipulation instruction.
Reset signal generation clears this register to 00H.

the procedures described in 7.4.3 Reading/writing real-time clock.
