Does that mean it is at risk of melting it down?
Hi Stephen,
No, nothing is going to melt down.
What this statement means is that if you place the diode between the 3.6 Volt battery and the RTC that only about 3 Volts will be seen at the RTC. The diode will drop about 0.6 to 0.7 volts across it.
Sounds like you are making progress with the A4000.
