Up to this point you've learned how to to gpio, analog in, pwm, i2c and git. The purpose of this mini project is to have you design a program that uses all of these.

Requirements

It's up to you to decide just what your mini project does, however it must:

  1. use at least 1 interupt driven gpio input (it could read a switch)
  2. use one gpio output (it could blink an LED)
  3. use a PWM output (maybe blink or dim and LED)
  4. use an i2c device (read a temperature?)
  5. use at least one analog in (read a voltage?)
  6. handle a ^C interrupt

Some Ideas

Think of some interesting combinations of these. For example:

  1. You could read a voltage off a potentiometer and use it to control the brightness of an LED using the PWM output.
  2. When a push button is pressed the temperature is read from an i2c device and displayed.
  3. A TMP102 i2c is used. When the temp exceeds a certain level an interrupt is generated and a message is printed.
  4. Use two analog inputs to control the location of a lit LED on an Mini 8x8 LED Matrix.

What to turn in

  1. Create a repository on https://github.com/
  2. List your repository ECE497 Contributions and Project Status here.
  3. Make a subdirectory in your github repository called MiniProject01.
  4. Put all you files in the directory, include a ReadMe.txt that explains what you project does and how to use it.
  5. Document your code.
