B.2.2 External Battery
As an alternative to preserving the SRAM contents and the real-time clock settings while
changing the backup battery, you may connect an external battery temporarily at header J7.
The
pins on header J7 have ground on the ends and positive in the center to allow the external
battery to be connected without the potential of reversing its polarity. Connect the positive
terminal of the external battery to pin 2 and the negative terminal to either pin 1 or pin 3 of
header J7.
The onboard battery does not have to be removed as it is protected against overvoltage by
resistors R80–R81. By having both batteries connected, either can be replaced from time
to time without losing the data stored in the SRAM and the real-time clock. The external
battery should be no more than 6.3 V.
