The RTC will give the ability to read the current time and date.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe board produces a regulated 3V supply that is fed into the edge connector to power the inserted BBC micro:bit, removing the need to power the BBC micro:bit directly. The coin cell holder allows a CR2032 battery to power the real-time clock to continue keeping time whilst there is no mains power being supplied to the board and BBC micro:bit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePower to the board can be supplied either via the Terminal blocks or the boards USB connector. \u003cstrong\u003eNote\u003c\/strong\u003e: This USB connector is only for power supply and not for data transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe micro:bit RTC also has an expansion port for adding additional I2C devices with a 3V supply (for example, an OLED display), and another for extra ZIP LEDs or ZIP Sticks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eMakeCode Blocks\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eKitronik have added custom blocks for the RTC \u0026amp; Klimate board to the Microsoft MakeCode editor.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe blocks can be added to the editor by clicking the cog in the top right of the editor.
