Circuit Diagram
The DS1307 RTC is connected to the Arduino via I2C, allowing the Arduino to read and set the time from the RTC module.
Steps for the Experiment
- Connect the DS1307 RTC module to the Arduino via the I2C interface (SCL, SDA, VCC, and GND).
- Upload the Arduino code to read and display the current time from the DS1307 RTC.
Explanation
The DS1307 keeps track of the current time and date, and the Arduino can read this data to display it or use it for time-dependent applications.
Results and Observations
- The Arduino should display the current time and date as read from the DS1307 RTC module.
