Real Time Clocks (Rtc Modules)

Real Time Clocks (RTC) play an essential role in our daily lives, ensuring precise tracking of time and date down to the second.

To achieve their exceptional accuracy and ultra-low power consumption, RTCs utilise quartz tuning fork crystal oscillators. These enable them to maintain reliable timekeeping while drawing minimal battery power, even when the device they’re part of is turned off.

We are committed to helping our customers develop accurate and reliable digital products and systems. That’s why we offer a wide range of high-quality RTC products. Our RTCs are carefully selected for their ultra-low power design, competitive pricing, and versatile specifications to meet diverse needs.

What actually is a real time clock?

An RTC is essentially a digital clock that is found on computerised systems such as laptops, tablets, smartphones, personal computers and really any electronic device that requires accurate time keeping. 

One of the main benefits of RTCs is that they can continue to operate even when the device is powered off. Some RTC modules are powered by an alternate source, such as lithium batteries on or rechargable batteries or supercapacitors.

In most consumer-grade motherboards, the RTC is powered by a single battery, which, if removed, will reset the RTC back to its starting point.

RTC modules contain the clock IC and the tuning fork crystal to provide a self-contained time keeping function.

What are the main benefits of using RTCs?

One of the main benefits of RTCs is their ability to continue operating even when the device is powered off. This ensures that devices always have access to accurate time and can maintain functions like scheduling, logging, and synchronisation.

How do RTCs maintain time when the device is powered off?

RTCs can maintain time when the device is powered off through various methods. Some RTC modules are powered by alternate sources such as lithium batteries, rechargeable batteries, or supercapacitors. These backup power sources ensure that the RTC continues to function even when the main power source is disconnected.

What happens if the battery powering the RTC is removed?

In most consumer-grade motherboards, the RTC is powered by a single battery. If this battery is removed, the RTC will reset to its starting point. It's essential to replace the battery promptly to avoid losing timekeeping functionality.

Are Golledge Electronics RTC modules customisable for specific applications?

Yes, we offer customisable RTC modules tailored to meet the unique requirements of different applications. Our RTC modules feature high-quality components and are designed to deliver accurate and reliable timekeeping performance.

How accurate are Golledge Electronics RTC modules?

Our RTC modules offer high accuracy and precision timekeeping performance. They are designed to meet stringent industry standards for accuracy and stability, ensuring reliable operation in demanding applications.

Can Golledge Electronics provide technical support for RTC modules?

Yes, we offer comprehensive technical support for our RTC modules, including assistance with product selection, integration, and troubleshooting. Our team of experts is committed to ensuring the optimal performance and reliability of your RTC-based systems.

Are Golledge Electronics RTC modules compatible with various platforms and systems?

Yes, our RTC modules are designed to be compatible with a wide range of platforms and systems, including microcontrollers, single-board computers, embedded systems, and industrial automation equipment. They feature standard interfaces and communication protocols for easy integration into existing designs.

How long do Golledge Electronics RTC modules typically last?

Our RTC modules are built to be durable and reliable, with a typical lifespan of several years or more depending on usage and environmental conditions. We use high-quality components and rigorous testing procedures to ensure long-term performance and longevity.

Do Golledge Electronics RTC modules support daylight saving time (DST) adjustments?

Yes, many of our RTC modules support automatic adjustment for daylight saving time (DST) transitions. This feature ensures that the clock automatically updates to reflect changes in local time, helping to maintain accurate timekeeping year-round.

Are Golledge Electronics RTC modules RoHS compliant?

Yes, our RTC modules comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive, which restricts the use of certain hazardous materials in electronic and electrical equipment. This ensures that our products meet international environmental standards for safety and sustainability.
