Very minimalistic MSP430 clock
How do you think simple clock can be? It actually can be fully functional with one bicolor LED and button. So this is a very minimal clock design based on MSP430G2101 microcontroller that consumes very little power and does its job well. The whole time (hours, minutes and seconds) is displayed with single bicolor led where three colors (red+green=yellow) each represent numbers that can be added in series to form a time format. Button simply wakes microcontroller from sleep to display time and then again returns to power saving mode. There is also a select switch to enter a time set mode. So this is a great example of minimalism and yes – another digital clock design. Continue reading
