Just an a side note has the errata for the RTC been fixed on the MPC855T it is not fixed on the 860T and I believe this feature is now missing on future MPC 866T, 857 variants.
If not it will draw several mA from your battery and discharge it very quickly Frank ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steven Scholz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Linuxppc-Embedded" <linuxppc-embedded at lists.linuxppc.org> Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 9:05 AM Subject: problems with MPC8xx internal RTC !? > > Hi there, > > I am using an MPC855T, external clocked with 16 MHz.
