The DS1302 Real-Time Clock (RTC) Module is a compact timekeeping module designed to track the current time and date in electronic projects. Based on the DS1302 RTC integrated circuit, it records seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year, making it suitable for applications that require accurate timekeeping and scheduled operations.
The module uses a simple 3-wire serial communication interface, allowing easy integration with Arduino boards and other compatible microcontrollers. Its backup battery connection helps maintain timekeeping when the main power supply is disconnected, depending on the module configuration and battery availability.
Operating with compatible 3.3V and 5V systems, the DS1302 RTC module is ideal for digital clocks, data loggers, automation systems, timers, and embedded electronics projects.
