Digital home/car clock with 100 alarms and temperature sensing
2006, private project, 1 developer
result: developed & soldered, works but FW is not finished
dev. OS: Windows XP; MC: ATmega8; languages: C; tools: PN, AVR C cross-compiler
This project has common firmware for 3 following hardware implementations:
– Car clock with both red and green screens (watch its movie CarThermoClock_2Lines-Vid01);
– Large screen home clock;
– Large bi-color screen home clock: (red&green) segments indicator to set any composite color lighting (watch its movie RGThermoClock-Vid01).
Common features are:
– auto brightness (16 levels) controlled by light sensor with manual level correction;
– 0,1V step backup battery or car accumulator voltage indicator;
– 1 temperature sensor;
– auto off LED screen on car key or wall power loss with 2 seconds lighting on button pressing;
– auto night mode: screen is off until button click or infrared signaling by any remote controller with following 2 seconds indicating;
– 100 alarms with the set of one-tone melodies;
– week basis time alarms (with “regular” or “once” mode);
– sound effects highlighted key presses browsing;
– independent 8 levels volume control of alarm and key press;
– accurate clock tuning (to 2 seconds per month error);
– switched voltage stabilizer (with 7.5V to 20V input).
