DIY clock with TFT Display and Arduino

[@RobertLBarnard]

This video is helpful, but not directly relatable to my Raspberry Pi project. Thank you for being very clear in all three important areas: 1) visual steps when assembling the hardware. 2) showing the wiring diagram/schematic. 3) software libraries and code example. I am now a subscriber.

[@amirulasyraff8447]

Wow nice i will try it👍🏻

[@ElectronicsBd]

All the best

[@dogruakimm]

It is an amazing project thanks for this video you can make it look like a real clock with 3d printed parts

[@vdefilip]

I had it work in 30 minutes, nice project, really appreciated. But also the remark, it does not work with the 3.3V pin of arduino uno. No problems with the 5V. Curious if it lasts .

[@siriknows5925]

Hey. Clock is working but can't see it. Initially after uploading the clock face views nicely but after few seconds watch face can't be seen. How to solve this

[@klausloehmann1691]

You probably have a display which needs 3V3 on inputs, your arduino puts out 5V. You need a level shifter or at least a tension divider for the datalines.

[@steenrudberg]

Is it possible to only show hours and minutes?

[@resuuserovich9399]

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for watching!

Is it possible to use attiny85

Can we use 4 pin oled display pls replay

[@ElectronicsBd]

Yes, but you've to change the code.

Hi, where could we find the code if the RTC module is included? Thanks in any case

[@Rrocksstar]

Hey very nice detailed video, i am new to coding and adruino boards, i recently made a media volume controller for PC via arduino pro micro and its working fine. My question is that can we run two programmes at the same time? I mean i want to keep using my pro micro media controller, but can i add this clock display to the same media controller board and run two programs simultaneously to control media volume and clock display? Plz help.

Can i do it on ssd1306 display

Bhai eai display er songe esp82266 connect kore kichu eakta banao!

Hola otra ves tambien me marca otro erroe en la linea 67 #include "rtc.h" el anterior comentario de la linea 37 ya no lo marca me puede auxiliar gracias

[@ElectronicsBd]

I don't understand what are you tryna say!!!😑😑

[@aldrins1922]

Everything works but RTC. Using DS3231 but still won't keep the time when power off.

[@mmaranta785]

You always need a battery with a RTC

[@ElectronicsBd]

check the connections again.

[@aldrins1922]

@@mmaranta785 of course...

[@atomipi]

Nice making atm, Im giving as a gift in a nice case, but wonder how do they set the time for when timezone changes, or daylight saving hours need setting by someone who doesnt know arduino?

[@ceosealemon]

I own esp32 dev 30pins and 1.69" TFT 240X280 SPI ST7789. It doesn't work no matter how much I compile it for three hours. Do you have this lcd and esp32 connection diagram?

[@valeriodurso6814]

Hi the program keeps sazing to include , is Adafruit_CurcuitPlazground meant?

How to posible the second niddle continue rotating not in steps

[@saitanveesh5906]

Can we do this with 0.91” display

[@francozenatti3430]

Is there a link to download the code?

[@vgbhg9540]

This looks like the 1.3" tft IPS?

[@Chloe-xg1cf]

The display shows the right clock when i reset it but as soon as it loads in the display turns into a wirdly dark and messed up clock and i can bearly see it. What did i do wrong?

[@Chloe-xg1cf]

nvm the solution was just to use 5v input

[@klausloehmann1691]

You probably have a display which needs 3V3 on inputs, your arduino puts out 5V. You need a level shifter or at least a tension divider for the datalines.

[@schinbone0]

@@Chloe-xg1cf Thank you for adding the NVM, I had the same problem. I am new to the arduino world, you saved me from messing around for hours trying to figure it out.

Hola buenas tardes en mi pías un comentario en tu programa que esta en library que compile marca un error en la linea 37 Arduino_ST7789 lcd = Arduino_ST7789(TFT_DC, TFT_RST); si esta bien porque ya lo cambie a Adafruit pero sigue mandando error me podrías apoyar gracias. buen video

[@ElectronicsBd]

Dear, I don't understand what are you saying. Please, speaker English or Bangla

[@renejorgealonso4681]

Hello good afternoon in my country Mexico I do not have good knowledge of English but. My question is when I compile the program and upload it, it shows the clock on the screen but then it no longer shows it, it is a few seconds what you see, you could tell me what happened

[@ElectronicsBd]

Use an RTC module and check all the connections.

[@lakmaljayarathne1651]

Superb....

[@ElectronicsBd]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@digitalartee]

This is nice! Can you do the same using a rounded OLED (example: GC9A01)?

[@BrownBoiTech]

Yes please!!

[@trupytrupsy2259]

Nice project, thank you! But for me, the big hand jumps from 6 to 12.8 to 12.6: 00: 00 to 12:00:00. I don't have a connected ds3231, nor a connected PC I'll give it from another source and it will do it for me. Sorry translator....

[@ElectronicsBd]

Use the RTC module for best performance.

[@mohdameerudin5290]

Hi, why it said adafruit gfx no such file or directory?

[@ElectronicsBd]

That means that library is not installed properly!!! Install the library adafruit gfx

[@rahulvrundavane]

If i want to change the time then what should i do ???

[@RoamingAdhocrat]

did an ST7789 TFT display write this

[@ElectronicsBd]

yes, It's an ST7789 Display

Thanks for this project, was great fun! Now how can we go in and Edit or Create/Save our own watch faces in the #Include file "Smart08.h" etc

[@devtest8259]

How to adjust the brightness?

[@theindianinnovator4179]

Hi your very innovative. Can you give me the code for ardunio pro mini as soon as possible.

Code is same, just change the board in the board section of arduino software.

[@Dancopymus]

Hi, I like the watch! What must be changed in the code to use with Display TFT ILI9341? Thanks

[@ElectronicsBd]

You’ve to change the display Library. My project was based on ST7789 library. Basically, the whole coding was based on that ST7789 library functions. So, if you want to use different display, you’ve to change the library and code. Thank you.

[@theindianinnovator4179]

Hi where is the code pls tell

[@ElectronicsBd]

It's inside the library. github.com/cbm80amiga/Arduino_ST7789_Fast/tree/master/examples/ST7789_Watch_2bit

gnna build this one and add 3d printed case thank you. !!

[@rajavarapupawankumar3164]

[@wasanthawimaladharm]

mine clock dials won't change, how it get changed?

[@ElectronicsBd]

Basically, This clock takes time automatically from the computer. But, you can customize time, check the coding section. There are options available for it.

[@Akira_Von]

Ah finally i found this vid

[@personguything]

Dont work for me :(

[@ElectronicsBd]

check all the cnnctions and make sure all the libraries are installed.

[@yangkai8517]

I repeated the same circuit and same code on Arduino Uno and 1.3" LCD Module (ST7789 Driver 240x240 IPS Display). However, the clock appeared perfectly during the first 11 seconds after I ran the Arduino code, but the screen faded (became very dark) after 11 seconds. What's the problem? Thanks!

[@bloic4566]

Hello here, it's quite amazing, I can't find a small screen (to make a watch) with touch !! If anyone has a lead .. thank you
