Description
Ultibo Real Time Clock device interface unit
The RTC unit provides the device interface for real time clock modules to be registered with Ultibo core. Each RTC module requires a driver that communicates with the specific hardware to implement the device interface although many devices may use the same chip and will be covered by a single driver.
This unit registers the RTCGetTime and RTCSetTime functions with the Platform unit to enable hardware independent access to a real time clock module.
