Guys I have made a clock using the DS1307 & PIC16F628A software based I2C. The clock is working.
But I'm reading the DS1307 every second & update the display. I have not used the SQW pin & I do not want to use that.
Most experts say frequently reading (like every 1sec) the DS1307 will slow down the clock.
Is this true?How often do you read in your designed clocks?
