Ds1305 Rtc

[bcd]

Has anybody used a DS1305 RTC chip with PBP? I like the idea of having the alarms that can generate interrupts when a set time is reached.

I have had some experience with the I2C DS1307 using Melanies code, but the DS1305s use either 3 wire or SPI interfaces. Both chips use the BCD representation of the year, date and time.

I've used the DS1302 quite often.

There's a small tutorial for BasicStamp here:

It can easily be converted to PBP.
