Simple RTC Alarm with a SAMD Board
This example demonstrate how to use the RTC library methods in order to do something when an alarm is matched.
This example demonstrate how to use the RTC library methods in order to do something when an alarm is matched. In particular in this example, the RTC time is set at 16:00:00 and an alarm at 16:00:10. When the time match using the match type
MATCH_HHMMSSHardware Required
- Arduino Zero or MKRZero or MKR1000
Circuit
Only your Arduino Board is needed for this example.
