A smart digital clock for the modern age

Are you tired of boring, simple clocks that just work? I am! With this clock, you can display not only the time but also whatever unnecessary information that your heart desires! I love it!!!

Just kidding, this sucks.

Features:

  • Automatic time synchronisation with an NTP server, preventing the need for manually setting the time in case the RTC clock loses power.
  • An RTC Module, ensuring that the clock stays functional even when not connected to the internet.
  • SD Card support.
  • A simple, modular menu system!

Adding screens to the menu is as easy as:

  • Subclassing the Screen class,
  • Overriding the init() and draw() methods,
  • Adding a pointer to an instance of your class to the modes vector in Digital_Clock.cpp !

Questions

How big is the Alarm clock PCB?

It measures 98 × 55 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.

What parts does the Alarm clock use?

4 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Alarm clock KiCad files?

From the cabbagecultist/Digital_Clock repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Alarm clock.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Alarm clock.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Alarm clock design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask cabbagecultist before reusing the design.
