Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface

The cloud9 RTC is based on the DS1315-5 chip. You can find its datasheet online. I haven't seen any Dos code for it, but you could use the NitrOS9 clock2 driver as a reference. See the source code here: http://nitros9.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/nitros9/nitros9/file/8babf9987e22/level1/modules/clock2_d...

Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface

Re: The Cloud-9 SuperIDE Interface
