arduino with a ds1307 rtc and lcd display supplier

you can use the basic structure of this project. We have already made various Arduino projects, Embedded projects, and Arduino tutorials on our website. You can visit them if you are new to the world of electronics and Arduino.

to display the time. You can make an Automatic pet Feeder, Automatic Light, time-based plant watering system, and much more using this. This reduces the manual stress on us.

the module is capable of counting seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years. Arduino uses the I2C communication protocol to send data to the LCD display,

which we are using here to display the time. The display updates every second to tell the most accurate time since the module is much accurate to tell the time.

The module is capable of running for more than 5 years continuously without affecting the count in time. this is possible because of the in-built cell.

Now that I look again, you are right... BUT.. the actual address is 0x3F! I"m not sure that makes sense either but because I believe the lowest bit is considered the R/(not)W bit. Since its a write only device, I"d think it should be ox3E if anything, but that"s the address needed, so I guess the LCD library I"m using overrides the low bit. And now that you mention it, I see that the board does have places for jumpers (or zero hom SMD parts) to further configure the address. It means I can now drive multiple displays (up to 8) if I even needed to.

Very interesting Thanks! So the likelihood of two devices with completely different purposes using the same addess range is fairly low, and like my DS1882 audio pot chips, they will usually allow the user to configure 3 bits within the lower nibble of the address.

For an i2c based clock/RTC module would use a DS3231 instead of a DS1307. The price is about the same and it is much more accurate. DS3231 modules on ebay (starting at just under $1.50 USD shipped) are cheaper than the price shown on that link you provided to the DS1307.

You do need to be careful with most of these low cost RTC modules in the they have a little charging circuit on them for using with a LIR2032. If you use a 2032 instead, you should cut a trace on the module to disable the charging circuit.

Well that one I linked seems very convenient, and I probably wouldn"t need even 1/10th of it current functions. But I"ll investigate the S3231 too! For my projects, I just need a way to re-set the time if power has been lost for a while. Currently I detect eminent power fail, save the current time in EEprom, and retrieve it on power up. This is just to survive very typical power losses that only last minutes, without resetting to a stupid time like 12:00AM like most household devices do. But I"ll never need millisecond accuracy for any current projects.

And yes... I"ve been meaning to check out those nifty esp8266 modules too, for other projects. I was wondering though (even though its another subject), can they be used without coding them, just using external commands? I"m thinking of the major hassles and expense getting any kind of FCC approval, should I ever use such a module in a product. From my research, if a module has already passed FCC muster with its existing code, and you don"t alter its code, you may have a slightly cheaper path to approval.

This is a great battery-backed real time clock (RTC) that allows your microcontroller project to keep track of time even if it is reprogrammed, or if the power is lost. Perfect for datalogging, clock-building, time stamping, timers and alarms, etc. The DS1307 is the most popular RTC, and works best with 5V-based chips such as the Arduino.

The module comes fully assembled and pre-programmed with a time. You have to reset the module and set your own time. The DS1307 is accessed via the I2C protocol.

The module works with CR2025 or CR2032 cell. Post offices do not allow shipping of batteries. So, you need to purchase the battery from your local store.

The RTC module is based on the clock chip DS1307, which supports the I2C protocol. It utilizes a Lithium cell battery (CR1225). The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year. The end of the month date is automatically adjusted for months with fewer than 31 days, including corrections for leap years. The clock operates in either the 24-hour or 12-hour format with AM/PM indicator. And it is valid up to 2100. In order to gain a robust performance, you must put a 3-Volt CR1225 lithium cell in the battery-holder. If you use the primary power only, the module may not work normally, because the crystal may not oscillate.

The platforms mentioned above as supported is/are an indication of the module"s software or theoritical compatibility. We only provide software library or code examples for Arduino platform in most cases. It is not possible to provide software library / demo code for all possible MCU platforms. Hence, users have to write their own software library.

In order to gain a robust performance, you must put a 3-Volt CR1225 lithium cell in the battery-holder. If you use the primary power only, the module may not work normally, because the crystal may not oscillate.

Sometimes it may be necessary to use a display while making a hardware project, but the size and the type of the display may vary according to the application. In a previous project, we used a 0.96″ I2C OLED display, and in this project we will have an I2C 20×4 character display.

This liquid crystal display has 4 lines, 20 character in each line and cannot be used to display graphics. The main feature of this display that it uses I2C interface, which means that you will need only two wires to connect with Arduino. At the back side of the screen there is a small PCB soldered in the display, this circuit is a serial LCD 20 x 4 module and it also has a small trimpot to adjust the contrast of the LCD.

Display’s backlight is blue and the text is white. It is fully compatible with Arduino and has 5V input voltage. Its I2C address could be 0x27 or 0x3F. You can get it for about $7 from Bangood store.

DS3231 is a low-cost, accurate I2C real-time clock (RTC), with an integrated temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) and crystal. The device incorporates a battery input, so that if power is disconnected it maintains accurate time.

RTC maintains seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year information. Less than 31 days of the month, the end date will be automatically adjusted, including corrections for leap year. The clock operates in either the 24 hours or band / AM / PM indication of the 12-hour format. Provides two configurable alarm clock and a calendar can be set to a square wave output. Address and data are transferred serially through an I2C bidirectional bus.

This RTC module operates at input voltage range between 3.3V and 5.5V, so it can be connected with 3.3V or 5V pins. It is available on Banggood store for about $2.

First we need to download the library of the display, which includes all required functions to configure and write on the display. You can find it here.

Unzip the library and add it to the Arduino libraries folder, then run Arduino IDE and copy the following code. The first two lines are to include both of I2C and LCD libraries.

lcd.setCursor(3,0) will set the cursor of the LCD in the specified location, the first argument for the column and the second for the row starting form 0.

Here we will use a small breadboard to connect the RTC module and display with the Arduino’s I2C pins (A4 and A5). The SCL pins are connected with analog 5 pin and the SDA pins with analog 6 pin. The top rail of the breadboard used as I2C bus and the bottom one is power bus.

In addition to setup and loop function, we will create four other functions to organize the code. As the corners and vertical lines of the frame are special characters, we have to create them manually. So we will use a function to create them and another one to print them on the LCD.

Inside the loop function the time will be read from the real time clock module and the printed to the LCD using a custom function for each of time and date.

At first, we have to include the three libraries, I2C, LCD, and RTC and set the LCD address. Inside the setup function the display is initialized, then we will call createCustomCharacters() function and print them.

Each character can be 5-pixel long in width and 8-pixel in height. So to create a custom character we need to create a new byte. We need 5 characters, the vertical line and the four corners. The yellow pattern shows you how the character will be displayed on the LCD.

Inside createCustomCharacters() function, we called lcd.createChar(#, byte array) function. The LCD supports up to 8 custom characters numbered from 0 to 7. It will assign the index in the first argument to the character given by the byte array. To print this character we can use lcd.write(byte(#)) function.

This function is very simple, it uses lcd.setCursor(#,#) to move the cursor and lcd.print(“”) to print the given string. The function will print the top and bottom horizontal lines, then printing other custom characters.

As we discussed earlier, the loop function will get the current time and date every second and refresh them on the display. First we defined a time element “tm” which has current time data, then if the time is correct and the RTC module working fine the time and date will be printed.

We can add some instructions so, if the DS1307 is stopped or there is a circuit error,we can light a LED to indicate the problem. The loop will wait for 1 second before starting the next iteration.

PrintTime function uses three arguments, the column and line where it will print the time, and the time element. lcd.print(tm.Hour) will print the hour, then if the minutes and seconds are less than 10 we will add 0 to the left. And the same method is used to print the date.

Now everything is ready, upload the code to your Arduino and enjoy watching your new clock. You can find the full Arduino sketches and libraries in the attachment below.

Along 3 years I have been trying several leg mechanism, at first I decided to do a simple desing with tibial motor where placed on femur joint.This design had several problems, like it wasn"t very robust and the most importat is that having the motor (with big mass) that far from the rotating axis, caused that in some movements it generate unwanted dynamics to the robot body, making controlability worse.New version have both motors of femur/tibial limb at coxa frame, this ends with a very simple setup and at the same time, the heaviest masses of the mechanism are centered to the rotating axis of coxa limb, so even though the leg do fast movements, inertias won"t be strong enough to affect the hole robot mass, achieving more agility.Inverse Kinematics of the mechanismAfter building it I notice that this mechanism was very special for another reason, at the domain the leg normally moves, it acts as a diferential mecanism, this means that torque is almost all the time shared between both motor of the longer limbs. That was an improvent since with the old mechanism tibial motor had to hold most of the weight and it was more forced than the one for femur.To visualize this, for the same movement, we can see how tibial motor must travel more arc of angel that the one on the new version.In order to solve this mechanism, just some trigonometry is needed. Combining both cosine and sine laws, we can obtain desired angle (the one between femur and tibia) with respect to the angle the motor must achieve.Observing these equations, with can notice that this angle (the one between femur and tibia) depends on both servos angles, which means both motors are contributing to the movement of the tibia.Calibration of servosAnother useful thing to do if we want to control servo precisely is to print a calibration tool for our set up. As shown in the image below, in order to know where real angles are located, angle protactor is placer just in the origin of the rotating joint, and choosing 2 know angles we can match PWM signal to the real angles we want to manipulate simply doing a lineal relation between angles and PWM pulse length.Then a simple program in the serial console can be wrtten to let the user move the motor to the desired angle. This way the calibration process is only about placing motor at certain position and everything is done and we won"t need to manually introduce random values that can be a very tedious task.With this I have achieved very good calibrations on motors, which cause the robot to be very simetrial making the hole system more predictable. Also the calibration procedure now is very easy to do, as all calculations are done automatically. Check Section 1 for the example code for calibration.More about this can be seen in the video below, where all the building process is shown as well as the new leg in action.SECTION 1:In the example code below, you can see how calibration protocol works, it is just a function called calibrationSecuence() which do all the work until calibration is finished. So you only need to call it one time to enter calibration loop, for example by sending a "c" character thought the serial console.Also some useful function are used, like moving motor directly with analogWrite functions which all the calculations involved, this is a good point since no interrupts are used.This code also have the feature to calibrate the potentiometer coming from each motor.#define MAX_PULSE 2500 #define MIN_PULSE 560 /*---------------SERVO PIN DEFINITION------------------------*/ int m1 = 6;//FR int m2 = 5;
