Chronio

Arduino-based 3D-printed Watch. By not including fancy Wifi and BLE connectivity, it gets several months of run time out of a 160mAh button cell. The display is an always-on 96×96 pixel Sharp Memory LCD.

Hardware

  • Microcontroller: Atmega328p with Arduino bootloader
  • Real Time Clock: Maxim DS3231 (<2min per year deviation)
  • Display: 96×96 pixel Sharp Memory LCD (LS013B4DN04)
  • Battery: CR2025 160mAh coin cell

RPUadpt Arduino shield

Shield for Remote MCU Node on RPU Bus

RPUadpt is a shield for multi-drop serial communication of MCU boards (Irrigate7, PPUno, PuseDAQ). Serial lines are differential pairs. It has Full Duplex RS422 (RX/TX) and out of band Half Duplex RS485 bus manager that may (TBD) help with serial bootloaders (optiboot and xboot) in a multi-drop system.

This was a collaboration with Tom Hogue (tz89 from the Venture Rider forum) to translate his prototyped design onto a printed circuit board. He’s done all of the software; my contributions were entirely in hardware.

The Carb Sync Shield monitors the up to six carburetors and displays the vacuum pressure in realtime on an LCD display so the user can make adjustments to the air/fuel mix in each cylinder.

There’s an additional RPM feature that will be useful to set and monitor the idle speed on bikes that don’t have a tachometer.

The kit can be assembled by a novice using a basic soldering iron. The pressure sensors have extra-large surface mount pads and all other components are through-hole.

The shield is compatible with both the Arduino Uno v3 and the Bluetooth-capable RedBear Blend v1. It displays the RPM calculated from each of up to six simultaneous 3.3V or 5V pressure sensors on an LCD display which can be mounted directly or connected with the rainbow jumpers as shown above.

The board draws power from the carrier Uno or Blend board, which in turn can run off a 9V battery or a USB plug. The blue trim potentiometer controls the brightness of the LCD so it’s visible indoors or outdoors. The large switch sets the analog pressure sensor reference voltage to 3.3V or 5V. In the final version of the board, the switch is replaced with a 3-pin header and jumper cap.

Three digital I/O lines are broken out along with dedicated 5V or 3.3V pins to support extra sensors. It’s up to the user to match the sensor voltage on the digital line to the expected operating voltage of the Uno or Blend.

We had the boards fabricated through OSH Park, a local batch PCB service based in Oregon, and did a successful test in early November on Tom’s bike.
