The WORKBENCH part 1

I have to study this more and build some POC… syncing a node’s RTC over LoRaWAN, or maybe another TTN’er have experience with this ?

Yesterday found some 3231 modules but without the memory chip (uses to much energy when reading/writing)

also found some cheap bitcoins online

interesting

Nice small module. If I see it right, there are only GND,VCC,SDA&SCL pin available.
No reset pin and no 32kHz or Int/SQW output. If you need one of these signals this module is not easy to use.

oeps… missed that one :roll_eyes: . tnx

luckily I also ordered 4 of these with memory… thinking ’ maybe I could desolder the mem + led
ebay%203231

That is the module I have used a few times. It does not have a reset pin but I never needed one. The 32kHz can be disabled and the SQW can be used as alarm output.

indeed a nice accurate and very cheap RTC module.

lots of info and libs too :sunglasses:

confusing picture because I think a NCR18650B would never fit in a TicTac box … this is a smaller battery/lipo (AAA?) (but same green colour)

Larger pack/bulk buy Tic-Tacs?! :wink:

for more complicated wiring I use analog design tools :wink:

An alternative to ty-raps I use in such cases are water hose clamps with a screw band.

You can get them in varying sizes from gardening equipment stores or construction stores, either in galvanised or stainless steel versions. If you need more length, you can join two or more of them in ‘series’.

With some bolts and nuts M4 / M5 you mount in a few steps to each pipe.

I don’t have a use case for them (yet) but they are so cheap:sunglasses:

Huh … with LMIC stack ? I have yet to have mine run longer than a couple of weeks before something crashes and it needs a reboot. I took some example the Rocket Scream guys.

Good to know that its possible though!!
