The latest in our series of sensor calibration tutorials introduces a method for synchronizing RTCs for multi-unit deployments. Clocks are sync’d the leading edge of a GPS time-pulse and the Aging register in the DS3231 is tuned to reduce drift. This has been done before by other projects but here I’ve brought together three different utilities so that the process can be validated without access to expensive bench-top tools.
