Something somewhat useful, and the main reason I started playing the the DS1307 real time clock, was to be able to accurately control events based on the current time. In the same way you can get a simple plug-in timer…
Ardunio RTC, temp sensor, and LCD
I figured that if I was going to end up building some kind of aquarium controller / monitoring system based around the Arduino, I’d need a way of keeping track of time. Either to automate certain events like turning lights…
Playing with Ardunio
With college classes done for the summer, I’ve gotten back in tinkering with electronics a little. I had trouble with my Basic Stamp 2 after bouncing around Alaska and being boxed up for a couple of years, so I decided…
