Receive time_t from DS1302 real time clock chip

Projects Programming

I have been trying to integrate a DS1302 real time clock chip into a project.
There are lots of examples using the Time library and the DS1307, most useful is the setSyncProvider() function.
My problem is getting a time_t function from my chip so that is required by this function.
I am using the DS1302 found here Electronics - Henning Karlsen
Maybe there is another library or work around,

Thanks in advance!
