14.1.2. Week counter
The day (of the week) is indicated by 7 bits, bit 0 to bit 6.
The day data values are counted as: Day 01hDay 02hDay 04hDay 08hDay 10hDay 20hDay
40hDay 01hDay 02h, etc.
It is incremented when carry is generated from the HOUR register. This register does not generate carry to
a higher register. Since this register is not connected with the YEAR, MONTH and DAY registers, it needs to be
set again with the matching day of the week if any of the YEAR, MONTH or DAY registers have been changed.

1) [DAY],[MONTH ]register
The DAY register is a variable (between 28-base and 31-base) BCD counter that is influenced by the month and
the leap year. The MONTH register is a 12-base BCD counter triggered by carryover of the day register.
[
2) YEAR]register
This register is a BCD counter for years 00 to 99.
The leap year is automatically determined and influences the DAY register.
This RTC processes following years as leap years: 00,04,08,12,,, 96.
User software correction is needed in the years 2100,2200,2300 as they are common years.
