 =====================================
 A library to interace esp chips with the NXP PCF8563 Real time clock (RTC) in the arduino (c++) Framework.
 
-
 ## Features
 - use multiple I2C Busses -> rtc.begin(Wire1);
 - works with timezones (RTC is set to UTC)
 https://github.com/nayarsystems/posix_tz_db/blob/master/zones.csv
 - set System (ESP32) time from RTC (assumes RTC is set to UTC/GMT)
 - set RTC time from System (epoch)
-- Set RTC time over wifi example
+- Set RTC time using wifi example
 
 ## Warnings
 - not all functions are implemented

+- uses a cr1220 coincell (though almost any 3v lithium coincell should work)
+- to not discharge the battery too fast disable output clock and alarms
+- Low backup current: typical 0.25 uA at 3.0 V (theoretical not tested)
+- currently I'm testing with 4.7kohm pullups on sda and scl
+- currently the crystal I'm using is a Seiko Epson Q13FC1350000400 (+-20ppm)
+- in theory this setup will drift by a maximum of ~11mins per year (https://www.analog.com/en/design-center/interactive-design-tools/real-time-clock-calculator.html)
+- in theory a 37mAh cr1220 battery will last ~14 years without any charging (incl battery self discharge)
+- 3.3V -> diode -> resistor charging of a coincell from 3.3v is hotly debated as to wether is good, ok, or horificly bad idea. I have not had any issuses but your mileage may vary
+- be careful with pcb placement (have the crystal as close to the RTC chip a possible and souround it with ground planes connected with vias)
