While most opt for a 16MHz oscillator in a DIY Arduino setup, it’s intriguing to discover that the ATmega328 can function without it. An Arduino typically comprises various elements such as a linear regulator, USB to Serial microcontroller, debug LED, power LED, reset button, RX & TX LED, crystal oscillator, among others. However, a minimal […]

In this project, we will create a straightforward alarm clock using the timers of the ATmega32 microcontroller. The ATmega32A microcontroller features a 16-bit timer, which will be utilized for tracking seconds and constructing a digital clock. Hardware components include the ATmega32 microcontroller, an 11.0592MHz crystal, two 22pF capacitors, a 5V power supply, AVR-ISP PROGRAMMER, a
Introduction Typically, we employ a timer/counter to generate time intervals, waveforms, or tally events. Additionally, timers are utilized for purposes such as PWM generation and event capturing. In the AVR ATmega16 / ATmega32 microcontrollers, there are three timers at your disposal: 1. Timer0: An 8-bit timer 2. Timer1: A 16-bit timer 3. Timer2: Another 8-bit
Story A digital clock is a type of clock that displays the time using numerals or digits, rather than using a dial and hands. These clocks typically use an electronic display, such as an LED or LCD screen, to show the time. Digital clocks are commonly found in devices such as radios, phones, computers,
Introduction We implemented a prototype for a moving alarm clock which runs away from the user when they try to silence the alarm. It has all the features of a “regular” alarm clock: settable time and alarm, snooze, and alarm on/off. The alarm clock displays the time in 24-hour format on a LED seven-segment display.
What did I make? = This is a little project that uses ATTiny85 to make a simple “game timer”, intended to be used with board games that demand timed turns, like “Rummikub” or “Scrabble”. Never wait for all that sand getting down for the next turn again!! The working is simple: – A binary preset

Every digital clock has a crystal inside it to keep track of time. This crystal is not only present in the clock but also present in all computing real-time systems. This crystal generates clock pulses, which is needed for timing calculations. Although there are some other ways to get clock pulses for higher accuracy and frequency, but the

Clock generator I recently build a pulse generator and it does its job well. It produces pulses of variable length and at several frequencies. But the number of frequencies it can produce is limited and for many jobs the length of a pulse is less important than its frequency. E.g. when you are testing a
This is a device that indicates by buzzing whenever the door crosses the specified distance giving a red light indication.This has been developed by linkit one board received in the giveaway! Its total cost is ~63$ including ~60$ linkit one board.Here’s video of it in action :- https://youtu.be/SbazZ44E9QY Step 1: Things Required We need:- Linkit
In this instructable I’m going to show you how to design a kitchen timer using the Linkit One, the timer has a maximum duration of 30 minutes. And once the timer is done counting down it fires a buzzer to notify you. The time interval can be set in steps of 5 minutes and each
