## Introduction ##
**DS3232RTC** is an Arduino library that supports the Maxim Integrated DS3232 and DS3231 Real-Time Clocks. This library is intended to be used with the [Arduino Time library](http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/Time).
The **DS3232RTC** library is a drop-in replacement for the DS1307RTC.h library by Michael Margolis that is supplied with the Arduino Time library above. To change from using a DS1307 RTC to an DS323x RTC, it is only necessary to use `#include <DS3232RTC.h>` instead of `#include <DS1307RTC.h>`.
**DS3232RTC** also implements functions to support the additional features of the DS3232 and DS3231. The DS3231 has the same features as the DS3232 except: (1) Battery-backed SRAM, (2) Battery-backed 32kHz output (BB32kHz bit in Control/Status register 0x0F), and (3) Adjustable temperature sensor sample rate (CRATE1:0 bits in the Control/Status register).

## Installation ##
To use the **DS3232RTC** library:
- Go to https://github.com/JChristensen/DS3232RTC, click the **Download ZIP** button and save the ZIP file to a convenient location on your PC.
- Uncompress the downloaded file. This will result in a folder containing all the files for the library, that has a name that includes the branch name, usually **DS3232RTC-master**.
- Rename the folder to just **DS3232RTC**.
- Copy the renamed folder to the Arduino sketchbook\libraries folder.
## Examples ##
The following example sketches are included with the **DS3232RTC** library:
- **SetSerial:** Set the RTC's date and time from the Arduino serial monitor. Displays date, time and temperature.
- **TimeRTC:** Same as the example of the same name provided with the **Time** library, demonstrating the interchangeability of the **DS3232RTC** library with the **DS1307RTC** library.
- **tiny3232_KnockBang:** Demonstrates interfacing an ATtiny45/85 to a DS3231 or DS3232 RTC.
## Usage notes ##
When using the **DS3232RTC** library, the user is responsible for ensuring that reads and writes do not exceed the device's address space (0x00-0x12 for DS3231, 0x00-0xFF for DS3232); no bounds checking is done by the library.
Similar to the **DS1307RTC** library, the **DS3232RTC** library instantiates an RTC object; the user does not need to do this.
To use the **DS3232RTC** library, the Time and Wire libraries must also be included. For brevity, these includes are not repeated in the examples below:
```c++
#include <DS3232RTC.h> //http://github.com/JChristensen/DS3232RTC
#include <Time.h> //http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/Time
#include <Wire.h> //http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/Wire (included with Arduino IDE)
```

tm.Minute = 31;
tm.Minute = 30;
tm.Day = 13;
tm.Month = 2;
tm.Year = 2009 - 1970; //tmElements_t.Year is the offset from 1970
RTC.write(tm); //set the RTC from the tm structure
```
## Methods for reading and writing RTC registers or static RAM (SRAM) for the DS3232 ##

The DS3232 and DS3231 have two alarms. Alarm1 can be set to seconds precision; Alarm2 can only be set to minutes precision.
###setAlarm(ALARM_TYPES_t alarmType, byte seconds, byte minutes, byte hours, byte daydate)
#####Description
Set an alarm time. Sets the alarm registers only. To cause the INT pin to be asserted on alarm match, use alarmInterrupt(). This method can set either Alarm 1 or Alarm 2, depending on the value of alarmType (use the ALARM_TYPES_t enumeration above). When setting Alarm 2, the seconds value must be supplied but is ignored, recommend using zero. (Alarm 2 has no seconds register.)
#####Syntax
`RTC.setAlarm(alarmType, seconds, minutes, hours, dayOrDate);`
#####Parameters
**alarmType:** A value from the ALARM_TYPES_t enumeration, above. *(ALARM_TYPES_t)*
**seconds:** The seconds value to set the alarm to. *(byte)*
**minutes:** The minutes value to set the alarm to. *(byte)*
**hours:** The hours value to set the alarm to. *(byte)*

```
###setAlarm(ALARM_TYPES_t alarmType, byte minutes, byte hours, byte daydate)
#####Description
Set an alarm time. Sets the alarm registers only. To cause the INT pin to be asserted on alarm match, use alarmInterrupt(). This method can set either Alarm 1 or Alarm 2, depending on the value of alarmType (use the ALARM_TYPES_t enumeration above). However, when using this method to set Alarm 1, the seconds value is set to zero. (Alarm 2 has no seconds register.)
#####Syntax
`RTC.setAlarm(alarmType, minutes, hours, dayOrDate);`
#####Parameters
**alarmType:** A value from the ALARM_TYPES_t enumeration, above. *(ALARM_TYPES_t)*
**minutes:** The minutes value to set the alarm to. *(byte)*
**hours:** The hours value to set the alarm to. *(byte)*
**dayOrDate:** The day of the week or the date of the month. For day of the week, use a value from the Time library timeDayOfWeek_t enumeration, i.e. dowSunday, dowMonday, dowTuesday, dowWednesday, dowThursday, dowFriday, dowSaturday. *(byte)*
#####Returns
None.
#####Example
```c++
//Set Alarm2 for 12:34 on the 4th day of the month
RTC.setAlarm(ALM1_MATCH_DATE, 34, 12, 4);
```
###alarmInterrupt(byte alarmNumber, boolean alarmEnabled)
#####Description
Enable or disable an alarm "interrupt". Note that this "interrupt" causes the RTC's INT pin to be asserted. To use this signal as an actual interrupt to a microcontroller, it will need to be connected properly and programmed in the application firmware.
on the RTC.

`RTC.alarmInterrupt(alarmNumber, enable);`
#####Parameters
**alarmNumber:** The number of the alarm to enable or disable, ALARM_1 or ALARM_2 *(byte)*
**alarmEnabled:** true or false *(boolean)*
#####Returns
None.
#####Example
```c++
RTC.alarmInterrupt(ALARM_1, true); //assert the INT pin when Alarm1 occurs.
RTC.alarmInterrupt(ALARM_2, false); //disable Alarm2
```
###alarm(byte alarmNumber)
#####Description
Tests whether an alarm has been triggered. If the alarm was triggered, returns true and resets the alarm flag in the RTC, else returns false.
#####Syntax
`RTC.alarm(alarmNumber);`
#####Parameters
**alarmNumber:** The number of the alarm to test, ALARM_1 or ALARM_2 *(byte)*
#####Returns
Description *(type)*
#####Example
```c++
