This is a very simple project that controls a set of LEDs using a DIP switch. The purpose of the sketch is to show the use of some Arduino serial communication functions, and to increase familiarity interfacing with digital I/O pins.

Two LEDs were connected to the RX and TX pins on the Arduino (digital pins 0 and 1), but remember to disconnect these pins while the sketch is being uploaded.

Parts list:

• Arduino Duemilanove
• Breadboard
• 8 LEDs, assorted colors
• Jumper wire, assorted lengths
• DIP switch
• 6 10K Ohm resistors (pull up)
• 8 100 Ohm resistors (current limiting)

When looking at the parts list for the Arduino RGB LED spinning night light you must have noticed that current limiting resistors of different values were used for the Red and the Green/Blue pins of the RGB LED. That is due to them having different forward voltage ratings. You can find complete specs for the LED in the datasheet (when buying an electronic component you will have the option to download its datasheet, or the relevant information will be provided by the vendor).

We use Ohm’s Law to calculate current limiting resistor values:

Forward voltage ratings:

RED: 2.1V
GREEN: 3.3V
BLUE: 3.3V

Current:

I = 20mA

Supply voltage:

V = 5V

Ohm’s Law:

I = V/R => R = V/I

So for Red:

(5 – 2.1)/0.02 => R = 145 Ohm

For Green/Blue:

(5 – 3.3)/0.02 => R = 85 Ohm

As for the Arduino sketch, I chose to have the lamp fade between two colors, aqua (#00FFFF) and magenta (#FF00FF). For that I kept the Blue value at 255 and varied the Green and Red values between 0-255 to achieve the desired colors, as shown in the diagram:
(You can pick your favorite colors, cycle through the entire spectrum, or go psychedelic and show random colors with random delays)

// fade from aqua to magenta
  for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
    analogWrite(RED, 255-i);
    analogWrite(GREEN, i);
    analogWrite(BLUE, 0);
    delay(50);
  }

  // fade from magenta to aqua
  for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++) {
    analogWrite(RED, i);
    analogWrite(GREEN, 255-i);
    analogWrite(BLUE, 0);
    delay(50);
  }

Most motor control applications can be accomplished with a simple single-transistor circuit. This type of circuit controls the basic operation of turning the motor on and off, and allows very fast switching of the motor, which makes it possible to control the speed of the motor using pulse width modulation (PWM).

The basic problem with this circuit is that the direction of the motor cannot be reversed. For our simple application in this RGB LED night light, spinning the motor in one direction is enough. In the future we will use motors in applications which require us to reverse the direction as well, and for that we will be using the type of motor control circuit called H-bridge circuit.

Note that a diode has been used in this circuit. The core of all types of motors is the inductor (or coil). When the amount of current (which can be moderate to high) passing through the inductor is changed, it produces large voltage spikes (“kickback” ) .

The diode used in motor control circuits is called a kickback diode and its purpose is to absorb the voltage that is produced when the transistor is turned on and off. When you are developing motor control applications using a bipolar transistor you should always put in the kickback diode in order to protect the other parts of your circuit.

Here’s the sketch for the spinning night light.

2. Using a knife or sharp scissors, puncture a small hole (to fit the motor shaft snugly) on the center of the jar lid
3. Solder motor shaft to jar lid (if necessary use hot glue or super glue, as some surfaces won’t “catch” the solder easily)
4. Solder the RGB LED leads to long wires and cover the connections with heat-shrink tubing
5. Build the circuit on the mini breadboard using the schematic as your guide
6. Prepare the paper diffuser (use a hole puncher and punch a few holes to allow some light to shine through) and tape it around the jar lid using mounting tape




7. Mount the motor to the side of the breadboard using mounting tape
8. Tie the LED wires together and secure the wire bundle using a stick as prop (I used a lollipop stick in one of the holes on the breadboard); split the stick tip shaping it as a “Y” to help secure the LED wires in place(show finished picture)

This month’s project uses the Arduino to control a motor and an RGB LED to create an aquarium style spinning night light.

The initial idea was to recycle empty toilet paper tubes to serve as the lampshade, but it turns out the project looks much more attractive and colorful using white paper. (I haven’t given up on the idea of finding a use for the empty tubes, though. Suggestions are welcome.)

A simple DC Motor is used to spin the lamp structure, and a jar lid serves as the base. There is (a lot of) room for improvement in the design of the lamp, but I’m a computer scientist and wanna-be crafter at best.

I intend to revisit these projects in the future, and make them stand alone using smaller Arduino boards and sporting a nicer finish (something worthy of showing guests). For now the purpose of these projects is solely educational (in a microcontroller programming way, not hand crafting).

In the upcoming posts we will explore the assembly of the night light, as well as the circuit and Arduino sketch that make the project work.

As you could see from last week’s full Arduino sketch listing, the source code for the 2-digit 7-segment display project using buttons is strikingly similar to the one without the buttons; praise for ‘copy and paste‘! (It is worth noting, though, that ‘copy and paste‘ can be responsible for a higher percentage of bugs than I’d care to admit).

There are just a couple of snippets that I would like to comment on:

The first part of the loop() function checks whether either button has been pressed and increments the value of each digit.

  // check button1
  int val1 = digitalRead(BTN1);
  if (val1 == HIGH) {
    digit1++;
    digit1 %= 10;
    delay(10);
  }

  // check button2
  int val2 = digitalRead(BTN2);
  if (val2 == HIGH) {
    digit2++;
    digit2 %= 10;
    delay(10);
  }

The line

    digit1 %= 10;

which is shorthand for

    digit1 = digit1 % 10;

accomplishes the same as the line

    if (count == 10) count = 0;

that was used on the sketch for the single-digit 7-segment project a couple of months ago. It updates digit1 with the remainder of the division of itself by 10, which will be zero when digit1 is 10. The latter code looks a bit more obvious for beginner programmers.

The last part of the loop() function refreshes the display, and is very similar to the sketch for the 2-digit 7-segment display counter.

  // display number
  unsigned long startTime = millis();
  for (unsigned long elapsed=0; elapsed < 600; elapsed = millis() - startTime) {
    lightDigit1(numbers[digit1]);
    delay(5);
    lightDigit2(numbers[digit2]);
    delay(5);
  }

This is part 3 in the project to control a 2-digit 7-segment display using an Arduino. Here is the first post on this 2-digit 7-segment display project.

So now on the the meatier sections of the sketch for this project:

Common anode displays are not immediately obvious as a segment is lit when the corresponding pin is made LOW. You might be surprised, though, that common anode displays are most often used because they can be used with 74xx series logic data-selector chips and PNP bipolar transistors.

// Segments that make each number when lit:
// 0 => -FEDCBA
// 1 => ----BC-
// 2 => G-ED-BA
// 3 => G--DCBA
// 4 => GF--CB-
// 5 => GF-DC-A
// 6 => GFEDC-A
// 7 => ----CBA
// 8 => GFEDCBA
// 9 => GF-DCBA

Remember, the Arduino pins are connected to the display’s cathodes. To light a segment we make the corresponding pin LOW.

We use 0s where the segments need to be lit up. The digit ‘zero’, for instance, is not the intuitive 0b0111111, but the less obvious 0b1000000.

// Segments that make each number
const byte numbers[10] = { 0b1000000, 0b1111001, 0b0100100, 0b0110000, 0b0011001, 0b0010010,
0b0000010, 0b1111000, 0b0000000, 0b0010000 };

To give the impression that both displays are active at the same time and avoid flickering we cycle through the digits in quick succession and keep each of them lit for 5ms. This is implemented by adding a short delay after displaying each digit. Since numbers stay lit for 600 ms, the whole process is repeated 60 times for each number displayed, and thanks to Persistence of Vision (POV) we have the impressios that both digits are actually lit up at the same time. (Even though they are not).

The loop below is where the action takes place in our sketch: we cycle through both digits keeping each on for 5ms at a time for the 600ms during which we display each complete number.

void loop() {
  for (int digit1=0; digit1 < 10; digit1++) {
    for (int digit2=0; digit2 < 10; digit2++) {
      unsigned long startTime = millis();
      for (unsigned long elapsed=0; elapsed < 600; elapsed = millis() - startTime) {
        lightDigit1(numbers[digit1]);
        delay(5);
        lightDigit2(numbers[digit2]);
        delay(5);
      }
    }
  }
}

The lightDigit function for digit 1 enables only the transistor for the common anode pin of the tens digit:

void lightDigit1(byte number) {
  digitalWrite(CA1, LOW);
  digitalWrite(CA2, HIGH);
  lightSegments(number);
}

The lightDigit function for digit 2 enables only the transistor for the common anode pin of the units digit:

void lightDigit2(byte number) {
  digitalWrite(CA1, HIGH);
  digitalWrite(CA2, LOW);
  lightSegments(number);
}

Function lightSegments was reused from the single-digit 7-segment sketch:

void lightSegments(byte number) {
  for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
    int bit = bitRead(number, i);
    digitalWrite(segs[i], bit);
  }
}

Next week we will modify our project to use buttons to control each digit, and as such we’ll avoid having to cycle through several numbers in order to achieve the desired number being displayed (if that number is significantly greater than the current number being displayed).

4. Arduino 2-Digit 7-Segment Display Counter: Circuit | Part 2

This week we’ll look at the circuit for the 2-digit 7-segment display counter using the Arduino.

There are a few options to control multiple displays:

• employing multiple controllers;
• using a 7-segment driver chip like the 7447;
• using a multi-display controller such as the MAXIM MAX7219;
• sequencing through the displays, which is what we have done in our example, as it requires no added hardware.

When we were using a single-digit display, we connected the common anode pin to our Vdd supply, but with two digits we have to drive them independently if we want them to display different digits!

A natural reaction would be to try to use two Arduino I/O pins, each driving a digit of the display. The problem with this scenario is that it is not possible to drive the common anode or cathode pin using Arduino I/O pins, as they cannot source or sink enough current to light all seven segments.

The solution is then to use bipolar junction transistors (NPN for common cathode and PNP for common anode displays) in order to sink or drive the required current. The controlling interface outputs the value for a specific display by enabling only its common pin transistor, and the digit driven by that common pin becomes active.

To give the impression that both displays are active at the same time and avoid flickering we cycle through the digits in quick succession and keep each of them lit for 5ms. We will see how that was implemented when we go over the sketch next week.

Here is the schematic for the circuit (click for larger image):

The third and final Arduino sketch uses bits to represent each segment and is a reduced code version of the previous sketch (1,210 bytes for sketch #3 instead of 1,852 bytes for sketch #2). A ten element array holds a byte for each number 0-9 that specifies what segments should be lit (pin low). Bit 0 corresponds to segment A, bit 1 to segment B and so on. In order to display the number 1, segments B and C need to be lit, so that is represented by the value 0b1111001. Function “lightSegments” reads these bits in sequence and sets the corresponding segments accordingly.
