Support for using DS3232+SRAM Instead of a DS3232+24C32 EEPROM module (save to RTC/flash)

[4b686f61-2c1b]

Describe the component you'd like

In addition to using the EEPROM ic as stated here https://esphome.io/components/number/template.html#configuration-variables "Saves to RTC/FLASH", support for using the DRAM component of DS3232 ic?

useless red circle highlights the EEPROM ic on a standard DS3231 module. The idea here is to use a chip that has RTC and a form of memory built in instead.

What are your use cases for this component?

This would be beneficial for those who must make their PCB or component count as small as possible. Although the DRAM part of the DS3232 requires a battery to retain state, it won't lose memory assuming that it's not powered off for a VERY long time or the battery is rechargeable.

Is there a public datasheet, documentation and/or schematics?

Anything else?
