## RTC Battery Interface

NOTE: The mainboard will charge this battery, so a rechargable ML1220 battery must be used.
CR2032 is not okay because it cannot be charged.

### Onboard RTC Battery

Framework 13 Intel Core 11th through 13th Generation use an onboard coin cell battery as RTC.
These systems ship with a battery that keeps BIOS time, settings and configuration.

We use the Lotes LOTES_AAA-BAT-046-K01 connector.

### RTC Battery Cable Connector

On AMD Platforms and starting with Framework 13 Intel Core Ultra Series 1, no RTC battery is included anymore.
Settings are kept alive by the normal system battery. The only case where an
RTC battery is needed, is when the system is used in standalone mode (without a battery).

Cvilux CVILU_CI4402M1HRC-NH connector for the RTC Battery.
