Basics
The Real time clock DS1307 IC basically is stand alone time clock. Well, basically we can use a micrcontroller to keep time, but the value would go off as soon as it is powered off.
The RTC DS1307 is a handy solution to keep time all the way, when it is powered by a coin cell.
It is uses I²C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) protocol, referred to as I-squared-C, I-two-C, or IIC) for communication with the micrcontroller.Check the basics of I2C here, if are not familiar with it.
Schematic
The schematic is very simple, LCD is connected in 4 bit mode.
The Serial Clock (SCL) from DS1307 RTC is connected to P3.6 of 8051 and Serial Data(SDA) is connected to P3.7 of 8051.
The lines are pulled up for stable voltages.
