DS3231 vs. DS1307: Why upgrade?
Many beginners start with the DS1307, but the DS3231 is superior for serious projects:
-
Temperature Compensation: The DS3231 has a built-in sensor that adjusts for temperature changes. The DS1307 does not, meaning it can lose minutes per month if the weather gets hot or cold.
-
Accuracy: The DS3231 drifts only a few minutes per year, whereas the DS1307 can drift that much in a week.
-
Voltage: The DS3231 works great with both 3.3V (Raspberry Pi/ESP32) and 5V (Arduino Uno), whereas the DS1307 can be unstable at 3.3V.
