it's battery is internal to the IC itself. They have RAM that is battery
backed up as well. 2k-512k IIRC. Along with the standard CMOS RTC.....

side nearest to the spring door, and has a fairly large black block on the
other side of the board.  This block is fixed to the circuit board by pins.
 In the middle of the block is a rectangular depression with an exposed
chip.  This chip reads:
