In this article, we are going to see how to interface an RTC (Real Time Clock) Module to 8051 micro controller. There are different kinds of RTC module available in the market. We are using the most common RTC module that comes with the DS1307 IC, an LCD module and AT89S52 (8051 variant) for this tutorial. AT89S52 is a typical 8051 microcontroller manufactured by Atmel. Interfacing an RTC module to 8051 microcontroller is pretty simple. You only need to make 2 connections between the RTC module and 8051. So lets get to business! A Real Time Clock module is basically a time tracking device which gives the current time and date. RTC modules that comes with DS3231 IC have the provision to set alarms. Notes On DS1307 RTC Module Here we are using an RTC module with clock chip DS1307 based on I2C protocol (Two Wire Protocol). The module provides details such us second, minute, hour, day of week, day of month, month and year including correction for leap year. It can operate eithe
