Hi @5454ty!

Since you use external RTC chip, It means there are 2 RTCs in you system, another is RTC in CPU.

Maybe that should be the error message but the RTC should work fine.

Best Regards!

Hi @5454ty!

How you are setting the device tree in the board?

The iMX93-EVK has 2 RTC, the internal that is rtc0 and the external pcf2131 that is rtc1.

I am trying with those RTC without errors.

Hi @5454ty!

I recommend to use the next configuration:

pcf8563: pcf8563@51 {
      compatible = "nxp,pcf8563";
      reg = <0x51>;
     #clock-cells = <0>;

status = "okay";
};

Best Regards!
