Power and Connections

Check that your power and data connections are correct and that the power VOUT switch is in the ON position on the gator:bit (v2).

Resolution

The RTC only reports the time down to 1 second intervals and cannot return fractions of a second. It will report the lower value between seconds until the next second is hit (e.g. at 15.6 seconds past the minute is will report 15 seconds until the the 16^th second is reached).
