>Is there any SERIAL real-time clock + EEPROM out there ? Could not find it >from Dallas, Maxim, Atmel,... Philips do a serial RTC in their I2C range. I think it has CMOS ram as well - not much sense in EEPROM when you need a battery to run the clock :) Check out PCF8593 parts. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
