Hi,
How can a DS1307 or any other RTC chip claim to maintain time with any given accuracy
when it is driven by a crystal?

The accuracy is not determined by the chip itself. The accuracy is determined by the crystal.

The DS1337C has a built in OSC.
Saves you from setting up an accurate crystal.

Always wear safety glasses while programming.

I keep showing my age. I keep using a DS1307

With an accuracy of..??Originally Posted by mackrackit
Better or worse than a good crystal? (10-20ppm?)
Just curious, but too tired to go hunt up the 1337 data sheet...

I guess it is about the same as a good crystal.
DS1337C ONLY
The DS1337C integrates a standard 32,768Hz crystal in the package. Typical accuracy at nominal VCC and +25°C is approximately +10ppm. Refer to Application Note 58 for information about crystal accuracy vs. temperature.

Well, without reading AN58, it sounds comparable to a decent crystal.
Or is it..?at nominal VCC and +25°C
Sigh... so many data sheets, so little time...
