The MR-MINI-RTC is a Real Time Clock
(RTC) board. It display time base such as
clock, timer, and calendar. Moreover, it can
be a counter for an external clock. The data
can be interface via I
external components required. This makes it
perfect for embedded systems that need
RTC. The board is small can compact in size
2.20 x 1.70 inches.
There are two modes of operation RTC
mode and counter mode. When using RTC
mode, there is a variable capacitor for
frequency crystal adjustment. This makes
crystal create correct frequency result in
accurate time base. There is a on-board
battery backup when there is no power apply
to the board. This enable RTC to run
continuously even without power supply.
When using counter mode (CNT), user can
input pulse signal from external generated
source via a header pin. Moreover, there is
an on-board push button switch so user can
generate the pulse to test or experiment with
this feature.
The MR-MINI-RTC is designed base on
LM2575-5 IC. It is a clock/calendar circuit
based on a 2048-bit static CMOS RAM
organized as 256 words by 8 bits. Addresses
and data are transferred serially via the two-
line bidirectional I
address register is incremented
automatically after each written or read data
byte.
Please take a look at PCF8583 datasheet for
more information.

There are two set of jumpers must be
configure. The first set is DIS/ENA jumpers.
These jumpers connect R pulled-up to SDA,
SCL and INT pins. If there are pulled-up
resistors on the bus already, these jumpers
need to be in disable (DIS) positions.
Otherwise, the jumpers need to be on
enable (ENA) position.
