berin Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) The OPI5 has an onboard RTC. On the back of the board near the RTC chip there are two pcb "test points". One says RTC1, the other says GRD1, I would assume a CR2032 could be connected to those points to maintain RTC function. I don't dare do anything till I get a solid answer. Can anyone give me any feedback as to options. Edited January 8, 2023 by berin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berin Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 I am working on creating an RTC backup battery mount for CR2032. There are a lot of different types out there. I would like any suggestions on what kind of setup would be desired. If I do anything it will be a custom PCB that would tie into front access ports for headphone/mic. I'm looking for design suggestions if anyone has any good ideas. . . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haajee Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Did the RTC work? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottN Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Whose idea was it to use test points to connect the RTC battery? Wow, what a pain to solder to those. Pin headers would've been much easier to work with. Anyone have any ideas on a better way to connect wires or are we just to deal with the tiny pads and solder? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
