    Hello

    I've seen that between the RTCXTI et RTCXTO pins, we have to place a 32KHz quartz for the realtime clock.

    If if generate this clock by a FPGA, is it possible to connect this signal on the RTCXTI pin, and to put the RTCXTO one on the ground?

    If not, is there a solution?

    Thx

    Dam :D

    Hello Dam,

    In the STR71x Reference Manual (Page 63/345) it's indicated that you can stopped or bypassed the 32-KHz oscillator , featuring zero power consumption and allowing an external reference clock to feed the Real Time Clock, or a

    Backup clock source to the whole system.

    So I think that your idea is actable.

    Best regards,

    Hich ;)
