I would like to propose adding functions that return the current alarm1/alarm2 time by reading from the DS323x registers.
The reason is that the Ds323x supports adding a battery to keep running and preserve internal state during a power cut, but some MCUs interfacing with the Ds323x might also need to restore the IC state after a power cut, since they might not be powered by the battery and loose their volatile memory.
To get started I have a few questions:
- Does this sound reasonable ?
- Do you see any issues I should be aware of ?
I know this is a small contribution but if it sounds reasonable I would like to make a small change and open a PR.
Thanks !
