RTC battery on Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit

Hi,

This is not an issue, just to share my experience and some links.
Based on:

I searched for the R560 resistance and a socket for a standard RTC battery (this was the hard part because nvidia refers to the connector Wieson Technologies AC2651-0011-003-HH, 2-pin, 1.25 mm pitch), to have it a bit cleaner than solder directly the battery cables on the carrier board.
I found and bought these:

I’m sure people can find them on any international website.

Before:

After:


The soldering result is not profesional but it works, I tried a heat gun but no luck, the resistor y very small.
I finally did it with a normal soldering iron, but it cost me a lot for the 3 GND pads of the socket, because it seems to dissipate the heat very fast…

Hope this can help.
I have now the clock handled with the RTC battery (when not connected to a NTP server via internet).

Hi tvai, thanks for sharing!

You’re welcome!

For the price of the components NVIDIA could have soldered it as the pads are already designed :-D but I guess it implies more than just buy and solder the components…
Also now the board support (black plastic with the wifi antenas) is not completely flat because of the socket and battery cable…
