Hi.

I have my RTC lib, which is working just fine except one thing.When december arrived, my RTC date register reads 0 as date except 12.I have read with RTC_GetDate(RTC_Format_BIN,..) and Month is set to 0.Why is that?In the stm32f4xx_rcc.h is define for January set to 0x01 and for December to 0x12 (in BCD) so I assume that december is 12 and january is 1 in registers.I have no idea, please help about that strange error.

It rolled over to zero? Access to PWR/BKP enabled?

If you write 0x12 BCD do you get 0x12 BCD back?

Hi.

Thanks for replay.I found the problem after connecting debugger on board. The problem was because After read from RTC, I also called function to calculate unix timestamp in seconds. In this functions I've dones this: data->month = data->month % 12; and when december (12) result was 0.Now, it is working ok.
