The RTC has a power supply that is isolated from the rest of the system. This allows the RTC to continue to run while the rest of the system is not powered. In this state, the RTC time and calendar counters continue to run, but the powered down CPU is not able to receive RTC interrupts. Separate power supply pins for the RTC are provided on the device package.
