Project 5: Analog Temperature

Introduction
This module is based on the working principle of a thermistor (resistance varies with temperature change in the environment).
It can sense temperature change in its surrounding and send the data to the analog IO in the Arduino board.
All we need to do is to convert the sensor output data into degrees Celsius temperature via simple programming, finally to display it.
It's both convenient and effective, thus it is widely applied in gardening, home alarm system and other devices.

Specification

Interface Type: analog
Working Voltage: 5V
Temperature Range: -55℃～315℃

Connection Diagram

Sample Code
Copy and paste the below code to Arduino software.

void setup() 
{Serial.begin(9600);
}
// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() 
{int sensorValue = analogRead(A0);
Serial.println(sensorValue);
  delay(1); }

The above code is only for analog value.
You can see that the analog value is changing according to the temperature change in the environment. But it’s not very obvious.
Let’s solve this by using the following equation. Then upload the code below to the Arduino board. The value read from the serial port is similar to normal temperature.
e.g. The temperature right now is 30°C.

#include <math.h>
void setup()
{
   Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
  double val=analogRead(0);
  double fenya=(val/1023)*5;
  double r=(5-fenya)/fenya*4700;
  Serial.println( 1/(  log(r/10000) /3950 + 1/(25+273.15))-273.15);

Project 24: Digital IR Transmitter Module

Introduction:
IR Transmitter Module is designed for IR communication which is widely used for operating the television device from a short line-of-sight distance. The remote control is usually contracted to remote.
Since infrared (IR) remote controls use light, they require line of sight to operate the destination device. The signal can, however, be reflected by mirrors, just like any other light source.
If operation is required where no line of sight is possible, for instance when controlling equipment in another room or installed in a cabinet, many brands of IR extenders are available for this on the market. Most of these have an IR receiver, picking up the IR signal and relaying it via radio waves to the remote part, which has an IR transmitter mimicking the original IR control.
Infrared receivers also tend to have a more or less limited operating angle, which mainly depends on the optical characteristics of the phototransistor. However, it’s easy to increase the operating angle using a matte transparent object in front of the receiver.

Specification:

Power Supply: 3-5V
Infrared center frequency: 850nm-940nm
Infrared emission angle: about 20degree
Infrared emission distance: about 1.3m (5V 38Khz)
Interface socket: JST PH2.0
Mounting hole: inner diameter is 3.2mm, spacing is 15mm
Size: 35*20mm
Weight: 3g

Sample Code:

*****************************************************************************

  delay(1000);               
  digitalWrite(led, LOW);

       if ( 0x1 == results.value )	
       {		
         state = HIGH;
       }

Project 32: TEMT6000 ambient light sensor

Introduction:
At some point you are going to want to sense ambient brightness with better precision than your trusty photoresistor without adding complexity to your project. When that day comes, go get yourself a TEMT6000 ambient light sensor.
The TEMT6000 is supposed to be adapted to the sensitivity of the human eye, but I found it preformed sub-par in low light conditions. It does however work very well reacting to very small changes in a large range of brightnesses. Because it is meant to mimic the human eye, it does not react well to IR or UV light, so just make sure to note that when considering using it in your project.

Hooking It Up
This is an incredibly simple part, just connect power and ground, and the signal pin to your favorite analog input and you are done, the sensor will output analog voltage, that ramps up when it gets brighter . You can power this off of 3.3v if you would like, the output value will just be lower.

Code
You can not get more simple than this – This just reports the reading from the sensor to the serial terminal: 0-1023 with 1023 being very bright, and 0 being very dark.

Supply Voltage: +5VDC 50mA

Project 35: DS3231 Clock Module

Introduction:
DS3231 is equipped with integrated TCXO and crystal, which makes it a cost-effective I2C real time clock with high precision. The device carries a battery input, so if you disconnect the main power supply, it can still maintain accurate timing. The integrated oscillator ensures the long-term accuracy of the device and reduces the number of components. DS3231 provides both commercial and industrial temperature range and supports 16 pins small-outline package (300mil). The module itself can adapt to the system of 3.3V and 5V without level switch, which is quite convenient!

Temperature range: -40 to +85; Timing accuracy : ± 5ppm (±0.432 seconds / day)
Provide battery backup for continuous timing
Low power consumption
Device package and function compatible with DS3231
Complete clock calendar function contains seconds and minutes, hour, week, date, month, and year timing and provides leap year compensation until 2100.
Two calendar clock
Output: 1Hz and 32.768kHz
Reset output and Input Debounce of Pushbutton
High speed (400kHz), I2C serial bus
Supply voltage: +3.3V to +5.5V
Digital temperature sensor with a precision of±3℃
Working temperature: -40 ~ C to +85 ~ C
16 pins Small Outline Package (300mil)
Certified by American Association of Underwriters Laboratories (UL)
Size: 30*20mm
Weight: 4g

Connection Diagram:
This module adopts the IIC test method, so we only need to connect ‘SDA’ to Arduino A4, ‘SCL’ to A5, ‘+’ to VCC and ‘-’ to GND as follows:

Sample Code:

*****************************************************************************
#include <Wire.h>
#include "DS3231.h"
DS3231 RTC; //Create the DS3231 object
char weekDay[][4] = {"Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat" };
//year, month, date, hour, min, sec and week-day(starts from 0 and goes to 6)
//writing any non-existent time-data may interfere with normal operation of the RTC.
//Take care of week-day also.
DateTime dt(2011, 11, 10, 15, 18, 0, 5);//open the series port and you can check time here or make a change to the time as needed.
void setup () 
{   Serial.begin(57600);//set baud rate to 57600
    Wire.begin();
    RTC.begin();
    RTC.adjust(dt); //Adjust date-time as defined 'dt' above 
}
void loop () 
{  
 DateTime now = RTC.now(); //get the current date-time
    Serial.print(now.year(), DEC);
    Serial.print('/');
    Serial.print(now.month(), DEC);
    Serial.print('/');
    Serial.print(now.date(), DEC);
    Serial.print(' ');
    Serial.print(now.hour(), DEC);
    Serial.print(':');
    Serial.print(now.minute(), DEC);
    Serial.print(':');
    Serial.print(now.second(), DEC);
    Serial.println();
    Serial.print(weekDay[now.dayOfWeek()]);
    Serial.println();
    delay(1000);
}

results:
Before compiling the code, you’d better put DS3231 library under file into Arduino catalogue,. When the above steps are done, you can upload the code to arduino and open the series monitor and get following results:
