Digital Clock project using MikroElektronika Click and Shuttle boards

Post by andeug »

Hi,


I am looking to design and program a digital clock made with components from MikroElektronica, which include the following Click and Shuttle boards:

Analog Key Click - keyboard with 4 keys and OPAMP;
BUZZ Click - the clock's buzzer;
LCD mini Click - LCD with 2x16 characters containing MCP4161 as digital potentiometer for controlling the contrast of the LCD;
RTC 10 Click - RTC which uses DS3231MZ+. I have not found the INT pin on the component which already exists in the library;
Thermo 4 Click - temperature measurement with LM75;
Arduino Nano Shield - the shield is being used to host the Arduino Nano. MIKROBUS0 will be used for connecting the LCD mini Click, and MIKROBUS1 will be used for connecting the Shuttle Click;
Shuttle Click - the four Shuttle boards will connect to this board;
mikroBUS Shuttle - each Shuttle will connect to the four boards: Analog Key Click, BUZZ Click, RTC 10 Click and Thermo 4 Click.

Since I do not have enough experience with the FC11 Professional license which I own, I would like to request the help of the community to build this project. Below is the BOM list, which I want to order from MikroElektronika:

I have also made the enclosed FC11 project, which depicts all the components I have identified in the libraries, without the relevant connections to the MCU.

Does anyone want to work together with me on this project? I want to make it open to everyone so that beginners (and advanced users) can learn from it. Before ordering everything, I want to know how to get started with it as a Flowcode project and whether I have all the required components in the existing libraries.


Regards,
Andreas

Thats a lot of money. You could make a project with simpler individual components which are all available on flowcode. but first you need to decide what functionality you will need and there fore which components.
How do you set the clock for example?
You have a buzzer, i assume thats for an alarm.
battery back up?
Real time clock module DS3231 does all of this and is easily integrated into a design.
Starter for 6 :)
