USB Real-Time Clock (RTC) for Raspberry Pi [discontinued]
This is an open-source USB real-time clock for the Raspberry Pi, allowing your project to maintain accurate time and alarm/alert functions without internet connectivity - regardless of power cycles and reboots.
It uses a DS3231 RTC chip which runs the USB RTC with extremely high efficiency and accuracy. The RTC has cross-platform support which enables it to be used on different platforms such as Windows, MAC and more.
The USB connectivity is handled via an MCP2221 which is a USB-to-UART/I2C serial converter. The battery holder accepts a CR1220 battery.
Features
- Temperature-compensated crystal oscillator
- DS3231 advanced processor
- MCP2221 USB-to-UART I2C serial converter
