This post is about how to use the DS1307 Real Time Clock (RTC) module with the Arduino. You can also follow this guide for other similar modules like the DS3231 RTC. Introducing the Real Time Clock moduleThe real time clock module is the one in the figure below (front and back view). When you first use this module, you need to solder some header pins. As you can see in the picture above, the module has a backup battery installed. This allows the module to retain the time, even when it’s not being powered up by the Arduino. This way, every time you turn on and off your module, the time doesn’t reset. This module uses I2C communication. This means that it communicates with the Arduino using just 2 pins. Where to buy?The Real Time Clock is an affordable module. You can check the DS1307 Real Time Clock module on Maker Advisor and find the best price. Pin WiringWiring the RTC module is pretty straightforward! Pin Wiring to Arduino Uno SCL A5 SDA A4 VCC 5V GND GNDIf you’re using other Arduino board rather than the uno, chek out what are their SCL and SDA pins. Nano: SDA (A4); SCL(A5) MEGA: SDA (20); SCL(21) Leonardo: SDA (20); SCL(21) Example: Displaying date and time on the serial monitorThis example displays date and time on the serial monitor. Parts requiredFor this example you need the following parts (click the links below to find the best price at Maker Advisor): Arduino UNO – read Best Arduino Starter Kits DS1307 RTC module Jumper wiresYou can use the preceding links or go directly to MakerAdvisor.com/tools to find all the parts for your projects at the best price! Connect your Real Time Clock module to your Arduino as in the schematics below. Working with the RTC requires two important steps: setting the current time, so that the RTC knows what time is it retaining the time, so that the RTC always gives the correct time, even when it is turned off Set the current time in the Real Time ClockFor setting the current time you need to change the code provided. set your current time int the function setDS3231time()The parameters for the function are highlighted in red: seconds, minutes, hours, day of the week, date, month and year (in this order). Sunday is the day 1 of the week and Saturday is 7. Don’t forget to uncomment that line of code. After setting the current time, you can upload the provided code with the required modifications.
