Almost agree :) > A real-time clock is a high precision clock that periodically triggers > a high priority interrupt to ensure some code That part is correct, but if CPU is down, there is no code to execute, therefore need some unit to calc that interrupts :) and unfortunately that unit called also "real-time clock" you can also find chip for example PCF8583 with that function, which is working from lithium battery or other energy source which is also called "Real-time clock":).

A real-time clock is a high precision clock that periodically triggers a high priority interrupt to ensure some code is executed exactly at that time. This is separate from hwclock which is just a time keeper and does not create interrupts. and only provides to the second information.
