fsl_rtc... Why do not save time?

holyhope — Mon, 09 Mar 2015 10:53:09 GMT

Hi to all.

I'm developing on K20; I use KDS 2.0.0

I use the RTC_LDD component for Real-Time-Clock without using KSDK (for K20 KSDK is not ready yet...).

I set via the time via my Firmware and I turn off my device for two days.... and turn on... It give me the correct date and time!

Now I try to use KSDK 1.1.0 setting K60 uP instead K20; all seems work correctly but fsl_rtc component don't work well...

For the first thing I see that If i do not explicit do this instruction:

uint32_t rtcBaseAddr = g_rtcBaseAddr[FSL_RTCTIMER1];

RTC_HAL_EnableCounter(rtcBaseAddr, true);

the automatic init procedure do not enable it automatically.

The second (and very big problem....) is that if I turn off and turn on my device it will lost my time!

I suppose that this component do not work right... what I can do for preserve my time during turn off?

Many thanks,

Massimiliano

The issue of RTC not retaining its time is fixed in the upcoming KSDK 1.2 release, the problem was identified to a reset call issued in the HAL_Init function. Below is a patch that could be applied to the KSDK 1.1 RTC driver to fix this issue.
