That's my recollection as well. RTC batteries from this era often came in four possible flavors: * Varta barrel battery, subject to leaking and corroding traces * AA/AAA style brick + leads to motherboard, easy to replace * Dallas DS1287 epoxied battery + chip - can be replaced, cut into to tap directly into the chip, or replaced with Necroware's nwX287 RTC module [0] * Lastly, the standard CR2023 style. I started seeing these appear in later 486 Socket 3 boards, very rarely on anything earlier [0] https://github.com/necroware/nwX287 |
