ORANGE PI 5 OPI5 RTC REAL TIME CLOCK

[berin]

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.

According to the schematics yes

How did you removed SDcard/USB incompactible warning in status bar(that asking to format disk)?

That was posted from my phone

If you guys have not seen it I am designing a micro tower for the OPI5. hence the RTC battery backup is one of the features I want to add to the CAD design. OPEN design. If you guys have not seen it I am designing a micro tower for the OPI5. hence the RTC battery backup is one of the features I want to add to the CAD design. OPEN design.

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.

Has anyone tried a cr2032 for the RTC?

Just mounted my ICE tower for RPI. first OPI5 ICE TOWER IN THE WORLD  next working on building the shell. and the RTC setup.

I have added RTC features to my case design.

Did the RTC work?

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?
