AI Customer ServiceThe resistor limits the charge current, but when the battery's in use, you don't want to limit discharge current the same way - you want the battery to be a low impedance source for the circuit it's powering. The diode bypasses the charge-limiting resistor so it can discharge a lot faster (and more efficiently) than it charges. Thank you Nick.
To backup an RTCC or SRAM, two cells in series are needed to get 2.4V. Standard AA and AAA cells are popular and easy to be changed, but they need a battery holder. The cell ratings offer large capacity relative to other battery types, suggesting long use as backup, but their self-discharge rate is high and can greatly reduce practical backup time.
The RTCC will automatically switch to backup power when VCC falls below VTRIP, and switch back to VCC when primary power is above VTRIP (with some hysteresis). The VBATEN bit must be set in software to enable the VBAT input and allow backup operation.
The capacity of rechargeable lithium-based batteries is smaller than that of lithium primary batteries, around 70 mAh in the 2032 size. The nominal voltage for a Li-Ion cell is 3.7V and the nominal voltage for Li-Mn is 3.0V. These batteries have a usable temperature range from -20°C to +60°C.
To calculate the backup time as indicated in Equation 10, keep in mind that V is the supercapacitor discharge between V0 and VF, and that after backup time, VF will reach the minimum acceptable value (VBATMIN). A higher value for the supercapacitor will increase the backup time proportionally.
