Embedded RTC

IN expander are used a single-chip RTC M41T00S from STMicroelectronics. The system is a complete calendar, it is also equipped with a monitor of the supply voltage level and an automatic switch connecting the battery supply voltage in the event of a failure of the main supply voltage. The M41T00S chip communicates with the microprocessor of the RPi minicomputer (RPi+) using the I2C interface (channel 0).

The lines used for RTC communication with the microprocessor are shown in the table below.

Line Function Number of GPIO pin Comments
GPIO2 SDA 3 Lines pulled up to +3,3 V with 4,7kΩ resistors
GPIO3 SCL 5 Lines pulled up to +3,3 V with 4,7kΩ resistors
