MCP795W

Post by Widgetman » Mon Jan 30, 2012 1:09 pm

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone had played around with the new RTC chip from Microchip. It has some pretty cool features, and the best I can tell also has some Battery backed SRAM built into it. I was toying with using it on a farm project, but I am not sure how hard it would be to interface to with a PIC. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello!

I can't communicate with this RTC too. Have you any success with it in last days?

Ive just looked at the datasheet, It dont look to hard to interface with if you use the MCU SPI peripheral, you may have to make some SPI routines in code to Read and Write to the MCP795W.
