DS3231 RTC MODULE FOR RASPBERRY PI (WITHOUT BATTERY) DS3231R

Description

DS3231 RTC MODULE FOR RASPBERRY PI (WITHOUT BATTERY) DS3231R

The DS3231 RTC (Real-Time Clock) Module for Raspberry Pi is a high-precision time-keeping solution designed to provide accurate time and date information even when your Raspberry Pi is powered off. The module uses the DS3231 chip, which is known for its superior accuracy due to its built-in temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO). This makes it ideal for applications that require precise time tracking, such as data logging, IoT projects, and scheduling systems.

This version of the DS3231 RTC module is specifically designed for Raspberry Pi and comes without a battery, allowing you to select and install your own CR2032 battery for backup power. It connects easily to the Raspberry Pi through the I2C interface and ensures reliable timekeeping across reboots and power outages.

Features:

• High-Precision Timekeeping: Equipped with the DS3231 RTC chip featuring a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) for exceptional accuracy.
• I2C Interface: Easily connects to Raspberry Pi using the I2C communication protocol for simple integration.
• Battery Backup Ready: Designed to support a CR2032 battery (not included) for maintaining timekeeping when the Raspberry Pi is powered off.
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates reliably in a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for various environments.
• Compact Design: Small and lightweight, it easily integrates into projects without taking up significant space.
• Low Power Consumption: Consumes minimal power, extending battery life when using a backup battery.
• Accurate Timekeeping: Keeps track of seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year with automatic leap year compensation up to 2100.
