1：Overview of The DS3231M：

DS3231M is a high-precision I²C real-time clock (RTC) chip launched by Analog Devices (formerly Maxim), integrating MEMS resonator and temperature compensation function, suitable for industrial, consumer electronics and other scenarios that require accurate timing.
±5ppm accuracy (-45°C to +85°C), daily error is only ±0.432 seconds, supports leap year compensation until 2100. Dual power supply input (VCC main power supply + VBAT backup battery). Automatically switch to the battery when the main power supply is cut off to maintain timing.

2：DS3231M Important pin function definition:

Pin Number	Pin Name	Description
Pin1	32kHz	32.768kHz frequency output pin, open-drain output, requires an external pull-up resistor.
Pin2	VCC	Main power input, with an operating voltage range of 2.3V – 5.5V.
Pin3	INT/SQW	This pin has two working modes. When used as an interrupt output pin (INT), it is active low and is used for interrupt events such as alarm triggers. When used as a square wave output pin (SQW), it can output square wave signals of 1Hz, 4kHz, 8kHz or 32kHz.
Pin4	RST	RST pin, active low, used to reset the internal registers of the chip.
Pin5	GND	Grounding pin.
Pin6	VBAT	VBAT pin is the backup battery input pin. When the main power supply VCC is powered off, the battery connected to this pin supplies power to the chip to maintain clock timing.
Pin7	SDA	Data pin of the I²C bus for data transmission with the microcontroller.
Pin8	SCL	The clock pin of the I²C bus provides a clock signal for I²C communication.

3：Alternative model recommendation:

DS1307：Classic low-cost RTC, I²C interface, without temperature compensation, accuracy ±20ppm (0°C~70°C).Low cost and no external crystal oscillator is needed (built-in 32.768kHz crystal oscillator).Consumer electronics with low requirements for time accuracy (such as electronic clocks and small household appliances).
