How to Set Up a Real-Time Clock (RTC) with ESP32 and DS3231 Using NTP Time Synchronization

How to Set Up a Real-Time Clock (RTC) with ESP32 and DS3231 Using NTP Time Synchronization

Introduction Accurate timekeeping is crucial for electronics and IoT projects. A Real-Time Clock (RTC) is essential for maintaining precise time, especially during power outages. However, more than relying solely on the RTC module might be required for long-term projects due to drift over time. This is where Network Time Protocol (NTP) comes in. By synchronizing the RTC with an internet time server, you can ensure that your system stays perfectly in sync, regardless of how long it runs. In this guide, we’ll show you how to set up a Real-Time…
