Reset problem when power off on raspbery pi ds3231 [Solved] |

Hello everyone
I am having a problem with raspberry pi Ds3231 module when i cut its power it
takes 00:00:00 values. Is there anyone who experienced this problem. What are possible problems? I don't think firmware problems cause this. I need your help. (If needed i can post the code)
Here the module
https://www.amazon.com/DAOKI-DS3231-Precision-Arduino-Raspberry/dp/B01JGNKNNA
Note: Once the module overheated for a while but it can keep the time correct. |

That looks like a real time clock. If there's no battery backup then when you cut the power I would expect it to reset it's values. |

Do you have the backup battery installed ? The following is from the

There is a battery back up. And i measured 3V across it. |

could mean there is internal damage that won't allow the data to be saved.
I've used the DS3231 for 3-4 years and NONE have ever 'overheated'.
Also check the program to be sure it's NOT resetting the RTC with default time of 00:00:00. |

Have to agree wholeheartedly with Jay's comment.
These are small scale CMOS chips. No 'power' elements, just very
small FET's and gates. For this type of device to 'overheat', implies it has to
have been incorrectly connected or experienced an overvoltage. Most
likely the actual internal FET elements that switch the clock circuitry to
the battery supply has been damaged, and hence it's failure to keep
time.
You can split devices into a number of 'classes' in terms of the abuse they
can take. Some devices like the old 2N2055 transistor, can survive
amazing things. The basic early PIC16's are also quite rugged. But low
power devices, generally are much less likely to survive if something is
done wrong.
I'd say the 'odds' are heavily stacked in favour of the chip having been
damaged. Have to ask 'what was done' to make it overheat?. |

İ think it has big damage.İ bought a new one ,works well thanks for your reply |
