RTC-Real Time Clock-DS1307
The DS1307 Serial Real-Time Clock is a low-power, full binary-coded decimal (BCD) clock/calendar plus 56 bytes of NV SRAM. Address and data are transferred serially via a 2-wire, bi-directional bus.
The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. The end of the month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap year.
The clock operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with AM/PM indicator. The DS1307 has a built-in power sense circuit that detects power failures and automatically switches to the battery supply.
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.
PIN DETAILS:
| MODULE PIN | Arduino Connection |
| SCL | A5 |
| SDA | A4 |
| Vcc | 5V |
| GND | Ground |
If you’re using other Arduino board rather than the Uno, check out what are their SCL and SDA pins.
Nano: SDA (A4); SCL(A5)
MEGA: SDA (20); SCL(21)
Leonardo: SDA (20); SCL(21)

Code
Working with the RTC requires two important steps:
1. Setting the current time, so that the RTC knows what time is it
2. Retaining the time, so that the RTC always gives the correct time, even when it is turned off
3. Set the current time in the Real Time Clock
For setting the current time you need to change the code provided. Set your current time in the function setDS3231time()
Copy and paste with Arduino IDE.
