Request for RTC #340

Open kgracey opened 4 years ago

kgracey commented 4 years ago

Hello, I've had several requests for real time clocks. This one came in on the Blockly for Microcontrollers FB group (controlling church bells).

I think we need to choose a DS3231 RTC on a breakout board and get it in stock. If I am able to procure one from a reliable source, is the coding within reason for us?

Select the hardware; define what features of the hardware will be supported in blocks' write the supporting library code and the block code on parallel paths; merge and test. Let's revisit this when step one is near completion.

It seems we already have the hardware https://www.parallax.com/product/29125

I think we only need a library in this case. Could be done by Jon McPhalen or MattM.
