hello.

I'm working on an rtc based project although this is my first time of using it. the external rtc I interfaced with psoc4 is reading random values.  can someone pls tell me what could be the problem. Attached below is the code.

Hi,

I briefly read your source.

According to the datasheet of DS1307

DS1307_REGS.JPG

The data read from the RTC module seems to be hex data and you are trying to write them as a string.

How about changing your program as below

(1) include "stdio.h" after "project.h" to use sprintf()

#include "project.h"

#include "stdio.h"

(2) add work char after uint8 RTC_TIME[ARRAY_SIZE] ;

uint8 RTC_TIME [ARRAY_SIZE} ;

char str[16] ; // HH:MM:SS\r\n+NULL = 12bytes (16 is with some extra)

(3) comment out line 63

// UART_SpiUartWriteTxData((uint32)RTC_TIME) ;

(4)  modify lien 69

> UART_SpiUartPutArray(RTC_TIME, ARRAY_SIZE) ;

to

sprintf(str, "%02X/%02X/%02X ", RTC_TIME[5], RTC_TIME[4], RTC_TIME[3]) ;

UART_UartPutString(str) ;

sprintf(str, "%02:%02:%02\r\n", RTC_TIME[2], RTC_TIME[1], RTC_TIME[0]) ;

UART_UartPutString(str) ;

Hi NaAd_4382031​,

Please refer to the code example CE222306 – PSoC 4 I2C Master that shows the implementation of I2C low level Apis.

https://www.cypress.com/documentation/code-examples/ce222306-psoc-4-i2c-communication-serial-comunic...

Also check the status of I2C_I2CMasterWriteByte(0x00, timeOut);. Proceed further only if status returns I2C_I2C_MSTR_NO_ERROR.

Also please probe the I2C lines and check if there is any issues in the data sent from the master.

Regards,

Bragadeesh
