[Solved]using built-in RTC on ArduinoIDE?



  • In MicroPython, we can use built-in RTC as clock, such as NTP clock.
    Is there any way (library) to handle built-in RTC as clock on ArduinoIDE?



  • Hi,
    I have found this, it's maybe what you want:

    #include <M5Stack.h>
    #define TFT_GREY 0x5AEB

    uint32_t targetTime = 0; // for next 1 second timeout
    static uint8_t conv2d(const char* p); // Forward declaration needed for IDE 1.6.x
    uint8_t hh = conv2d(TIME), mm = conv2d(TIME + 3), ss = conv2d(TIME + 6); // Get H, M, S from compile time

    byte omm = 99, oss = 99;
    byte xcolon = 0, xsecs = 0;
    unsigned int colour = 0;

    void setup(void) {
    //Serial.begin(115200);
    M5.begin();
    // M5.Lcd.setRotation(1);
    M5.Lcd.fillScreen(TFT_BLACK);

    M5.Lcd.setTextSize(1);
    M5.Lcd.setTextColor(TFT_YELLOW, TFT_BLACK);

    targetTime = millis() + 1000;
    }

    void loop() {
    if (targetTime < millis()) {
    // Set next update for 1 second later
    targetTime = millis() + 1000;

    // Adjust the time values by adding 1 second
    ss++;              // Advance second
    if (ss == 60) {    // Check for roll-over
      ss = 0;          // Reset seconds to zero
      omm = mm;        // Save last minute time for display update
      mm++;            // Advance minute
      if (mm > 59) {   // Check for roll-over
        mm = 0;
        hh++;          // Advance hour
        if (hh > 23) { // Check for 24hr roll-over (could roll-over on 13)
          hh = 0;      // 0 for 24 hour clock, set to 1 for 12 hour clock
        }
      }
    }
    
    
    // Update digital time
    int xpos = 0;
    int ypos = 85; // Top left corner ot clock text, about half way down
    int ysecs = ypos + 24;
    
    if (omm != mm) { // Redraw hours and minutes time every minute
      omm = mm;
      // Draw hours and minutes
      if (hh < 10) xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar('0', xpos, ypos, 8); // Add hours leading zero for 24 hr clock
      xpos += M5.Lcd.drawNumber(hh, xpos, ypos, 8);             // Draw hours
      xcolon = xpos; // Save colon coord for later to flash on/off later
      xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar(':', xpos, ypos - 8, 8);
      if (mm < 10) xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar('0', xpos, ypos, 8); // Add minutes leading zero
      xpos += M5.Lcd.drawNumber(mm, xpos, ypos, 8);             // Draw minutes
      xsecs = xpos; // Sae seconds 'x' position for later display updates
    }
    if (oss != ss) { // Redraw seconds time every second
      oss = ss;
      xpos = xsecs;
    
      if (ss % 2) { // Flash the colons on/off
        M5.Lcd.setTextColor(0x39C4, TFT_BLACK);        // Set colour to grey to dim colon
        M5.Lcd.drawChar(':', xcolon, ypos - 8, 8);     // Hour:minute colon
        xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar(':', xsecs, ysecs, 6); // Seconds colon
        M5.Lcd.setTextColor(TFT_YELLOW, TFT_BLACK);    // Set colour back to yellow
      }
      else {
        M5.Lcd.drawChar(':', xcolon, ypos - 8, 8);     // Hour:minute colon
        xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar(':', xsecs, ysecs, 6); // Seconds colon
      }
    
      //Draw seconds
      if (ss < 10) xpos += M5.Lcd.drawChar('0', xpos, ysecs, 6); // Add leading zero
      M5.Lcd.drawNumber(ss, xpos, ysecs, 6);                     // Draw seconds
     }
    

    }
    }

    static uint8_t conv2d(const char* p) {
    uint8_t v = 0;
    if ('0' <= *p && *p <= '9')
    v = *p - '0';
    return 10 * v + *++p - '0';
    }



  • @kat Thanks, this seems to be software-counting clock in main loop. I'm looking for background-counting clock...



  • No, my question is NOT solved yet...

    ah ok sorry, i don't know this...
