DS3231 IC Real Time Clock Integrated RTC/TCXO/CrystalThe DS3231 is a low-cost, extremely accurate I²C real-time clock (RTC) with an integrated temperature compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) and crystal. The device incorporates a battery input and maintains accurate timekeeping when main power to the device is interrupted. The integration of the crystal resonator enhances the long-term accuracy of the device as well as reduces the piece-part count in a manufacturing line. The DS3231 is available in commercial and industrial temperature ranges and is offered in a 16-pin, 300-mil SO package
