Hello! I have implemented other Educational KIT for learn the I2C protocol. I did a little board that you connect at serial port of your IBM PC comp atible computer, and the serial port 'powers' the circuit! I did a Delphi Program that reads the DS1307 IC and shows the current ti me at screen! Have a battery to backup the information! My problem is that, i want to have fixed clocks, independent of machine, to talk with DS1307. I have done a "delay" routine with "FOR" command, but i think that's not correct! Can someone say me how i do short 'delays' in WINDOWS? (500us) for examp le! A good .DLL,please! mIGUEL.
