MN1307 sample code problem

[Acetronics2]

Rip apart a cheap Digital watch, steal the xtal, it should work with the DS1307. Even an xtal cut with the wrong Capacitance will work, though it keeps rubbish time (ie could be out by as much as 30 minutes in a year).

Hi, Mel

I have a LOT of xtals from Watches and timers ( most unmarked, ... of course ) ... most work on 3.27 ... MHz and some are really "exotics" ...

Without any verifying possibilities it's a bit ... risky.
