Brief about DS1302 Chip and DS1302 RTC Module
DS1302 is a tickle-charge timekeeping chip that contains a real-time clock/calendar and 31 bytes of static RAM. DS1302 uses serial communication to interact with microcontrollers. Also, it automatically adjusts the date for the month with fewer days. The clock operates in 24hr or 12hr format with an AM/PM indicator.
DS1302 chip is also commonly used as a DS1302 RTC module which comes with a 32 kHz crystal and on-board battery backup all in a small SIP module that is compatible with a breadboard. DS1302 modules are used by makers with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other Microcontrollers.
A DS1302 RTC module pinout is shown in the below image.

How to Use a DS1302 Chip
A typical operating circuit for DS1302 is given below. DS1302 have two power input, one is from cell and other is from controller. A crystal oscillator of 32.768 kHz is used to generate required frequency. For interfacing Data line, Reset Pin and Serial-clock pins of DS1302 are connected with the micro-controller.
