Interface Circuit
Type 4
A signal sent from the Always-on Domain to the VBAT Domain is clipped to the VSS by the level shifter
and the isolator when the Always-on Domain is powered off.
This function enables the following operations to be executed when the Always-on Domain is powered
off: continuing the operation of the calendar function, alarm function and timer function of the RTC,
holding the pin states of the VBAT I/O ports, retaining data in the backup registers.
 Interface circuit type 1
Figure 2-2 Configuration of Interface Circuit Type 1
Use this circuit type if the register does not have to retain data when the VCC power supply is off.

Bus read
The state of the control circuit (Always-on Domain) and that of the peripheral circuit
(VBAT Domain) can be read directly.
Bus write
The register directly affects the operations of the control circuit (Always-on Domain) and
those of the peripheral circuit (VBAT Domain).
