arduino IDE

Assalamualaikum, Semoga kalian semua selalu dalam keadaan sehat wal afiat.

Lewat tulisan kali ini, saya akan memberikan tutorial singkat tentang cara membuat Jam Digital dengan menggunakan LED Matrix dan RTC. Untuk sistem kendalinya, saya akan menggunakan Arduino Nano. Jika kamu tidak memiliki Arduino Nano, kamu tetap bisa menggunakan Arduino jenis lainnya, misalnya Arduino Uno.

Proses visual dari tutorial ini bisa kamu lihat di channel youtube saya dibawah ini:

Bahan-bahan

Sebelum kita mulai proses perakitan, tentu saja kita harus mempersiapkan bahan-bahan untuk proyek kita kali ini.

Gambar Rangkaian

Library

Sebelum kita memasukkan program / coding jam digitalnya ke Arduino nano, kita harus menginstal beberapa library terlebih dahulu. library-library yang dibutuhkan untuk alat yang kita buat sekarang ini bisa kamu download lewat link di bawah ini:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1II3iu1tUfJFumAQNPWqzRLYnI0zBZz2_?usp=sharing

Setelah semua library berhasil di download, buka Arduino IDE lalu ke menu sketch >> include library >> add .ZIP library lalu pilih file library yang telah kita download sebelumnya.

Coding

Setelah semua library terinstal dengan baik, kita sudah bisa menuliskan program untuk jam digital ini di Arduino IDE. Coding nya bisa kamu lihat dibawah ini
