Need to update display of an LCD through per second interrupt stub of an RTC. KIndly help me with a small example project using RTC. Am unable to understand example given in the documentation.
Neha, I have to admit that RTC is not an easy small usermodule. Partly that is because it contains a (nearly) complete calendar which is able to calculate the weekday for any given date, an alarm-clock and so on. The RTC may be programmed to generate an interrupt at every second, but that's like building a telescope for just watching birds.
I'd recommend keeping as much code as possible out of the interrupt to improve system responsiveness. To do this, you could set a flag variable in the RTC once per second interrupt, and check for it in your main loop. When it's set in the main loop, update the LCD, and clear the flag.
It will not be THAT thing for an interrupt occuring every second, but generally it is more universal to increase a counter and use that to update a corresponding value and then resetting the counter. So you get the chance to count for lost interrupt-polls which may occur during heavy CPU-load
