- The DS3231-SN is a very useful and precise Real Time Clock (RTC).
It comes in handy for all your projects in need of accurate timekeeping.
Learn how to use the DS3231 on your Arduino (or any other microcontroller) without the use of extra RTC libraries! This way you can customize as you like and save precious memory on your microcontroller to do other tasks!
A visual representation of the registers with LED's makes it easy to understand how the IC works and how to use it properly.
We look at how to use Bitwise OR operation, Two’s compliment, and much more.
I hope you enjoy the video!

Every now and then while wandering through the wasteland called CZcams you come across a real gem.. This video is Gold!
I'm truly amazed at how you manage to pack so much information into this video. I spent a long time searching through the datasheet for some of these details before I came across your channel. You're awesome!
Super extra video. I would like to ask for a video of the readings
You put a lot of work into this video. Thank you!
thx for the hint to desolder the chargeresistor
Nice tutorial
Great video
Keep on 🥰🥰
I like those. Have a couple of Pico's running MMBasic with a DS3231 attached. The temperature "quarters" in register 18 worries me. The integer number in register 17 gives the full number in Celsius directly. Typing RTC getreg 17,a and print a will give 19 (or whatever) degrees and RTC getreg 18,a and print a gives 64 which could mean 0.75 and it's weird to test, but I got to see another number. If it's 64,32,16 then it's still weird.
Edit: You answered it to be bit 6 and 7 in the end of the video. The code you showed bit moved (>>) down to 0/1/2/3 as a reading and x 0.25, so I figure it out.
Great interesting video, well done, understandable 😊
You write at 11:30 inside the video that you want to give an example of setting DS3231 to: 11:23:47 PM October 2023 as well as alarm-1: 11:50:00 pm 28th each month, but without github the code, can I get it from you, you are really good at packaging the code to a minimum, thanks
Excellent content.
you saved one person from dying due to library fever😁
