DS1307 and battery problem
Francois.Richard 2023-07-03 23:03:30 246 Views5 Replies Hello,
I have 2 x DF1307 gravity modules and I got the same behavior with both of them connected to a ESP8266 :
- When the CR1220 battery is not inserted, the DS1307.begin() function is returning true, and time is moving forward. - When the CR1220 battery is inserted (with the + on the top) the init function is returning false and time is stuck at 0.
I am missing something ?

The working voltage of the DS1307 is 5V. I think this is more like a bug if you power the module from the 3V3 PIN of ESP8266.

Measure the battery voltage. Check if it is giving 3V or not.
