using a RTC in SF basic

[MrDEB]

I have a DS-1302 RTC module but how to use it?
I recall Jon Chandler made a vu meter clock but what he used for timing?
Am planning on a clock that has no hands, just LEDs but precision would be nice.

am using

RQ5E040AJTCL mosfet

I think Easyeda has the wrong? symbol in their schematic

 

[MrDEB]

My error when I flipped the mosfet over in the schematic.

 

[MrDEB]

I think maybe I can flip the Mosfet over, flatten out the legs, then solder to the board?
I think this might work.
I have new boards being shipped, so will unsolder the MOSFETs and check this out before using a new board

 

[MrDEB]

Flipping the MOSFET won't work' Need a SOT23 footprint.
researching using an NPN transistor. Want something that will mount directly or will need to CA glue the Mosfets and hardwire?
Beau Schwabe is using NPN transistors as well (post #105)

 

[MrDEB]

I located an NPN transistor that should work?

ANY better suggestions?
