NervesTime.RTC implementation for popular Maxim Integrated Extremely Accurate Real-Time Clock chip with TCXO. [An "Oldie-but-Goodie". Dallas Semiconductor was acquired by Maxim in 2001]
Features of the DS3231 device other than the time and date registers [i.e. Alarms, Interrupts, Square Wave output and Temperature measurement] are untouched by this plugin, and are therefore available to other user-written Elixir apps.
The following are supported:
First add this project to your mix
dependencies:
def deps do
[
{:nerves_time_rtc_ds3231, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
And then update your :nerves_time
configuration to point to it:
config :nerves_time, rtc: NervesTime.RTC.DS3231
It's possible to override the default I2C bus and address via options:
config :nerves_time, rtc: {NervesTime.RTC.DS3231, [bus_name: "i2c-2", address:
0x69]}
Check the logs for error messages if the RTC doesn't appear to work.
