Collin J. Doering 7c9ca562d7 Make project specific changes to lcdLibConfig.h 
Make changes to the configuration header provided bu AVR-lcdLib to
achieve the following:

* Configure pin assignments to match the kicad schematic provided in the
  DigitalThermometer directory
* Use 4-bit mode
* Turn off ANSI escapes

Simple Digital Thermometer (using AVR-lcdLib)

A simple digital thermometer with character LCD display, intended as an example project showing how to use AVR-lcdLib.

Note however, that this project is not yet complete, namely the pcb is not yet completed. See Issues and/or Roadmap for more details.

Features

  • Uses a LCD character display to show the current temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit using AVR-lcdLib
  • Uses TMP36 temperature sensor to provide +-2 degrees Celsius accuracy
  • Has single toggle button to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit (not yet implemented in firmware)

Tools

This project wouldn't be possible without the following great open source tools:

  • AVR-GCC, AVR-libc, and AVR-binutils which form the compiler toolchain that makes open source development for AVR microcontrollers possible.
  • avrdude to do in system programming of the AVR microcontrollers
  • Gnu Emacs, because how else would I enter text?

Building

Hardware

Currently, as mentioned above and in Issues, the PCB is not yet developed, though a circuit diagram is provided. It can be opened with kicad and is located within the 'DigitalThermometer' folder.

Software <a name="software)

Issues

Currently, the pcb has not been completed, but the hardware design has been built on a breadboard and tested with the current code, which found both to be functioning.

Additionally, the firmware does not currently support having a button to toggle between displaying the temperature in Celsius or in Fahrenheit.

Road Map

  • Design a PCB
  • Add support for Celsius/Fahrenheit toggle button in firmware
