AquaTimer is a programmable timer for 12V devices such as lighting, solenoid valves or pumps not only for aquariums. It has three switchable channels for currents up to 2A each and up to 5A in total. Connected lighting can be dimmed if desired and slowly faded in and out to simulate sunrises and sunsets. The internal RTC of the ATtiny is used as a clockwork in conjunction with a 32.768kHz crystal. A backup battery keeps the clock running even if the external power supply is interrupted. Settings are made using three buttons and the OLED display.

This project involves designing a PCB for the lid assembly of an open-source laptop. The design integrates various sensors, including a microphone, camera, and ambient light sensor, ensuring precise alignment with the display glass. It features touch sensors to control LED lighting, spring-loaded contacts for touch-key interaction, and 3D-printed light diffusers for efficient lighting. Additionally, the PCB includes a power management system with status LEDs and a PFC for connecting to the external laptop PCB. The goal is to create a versatile, upgradeable, and user-friendly component for the laptop's lid. Specific parts of the project include 1. Microphone - Audio input capture 2. Ambient Light Sensor Module - Light intensity measurement 3. Camera - Video capture 4. LDO Regulators (3 TLV74 Series) - Voltage regulation for different components 5. Crystal - Clock generation 6. Touch Sensor Controller - Touch-key interaction 7. Flip-Flop - State keeping in logic circuits 8. LEDs (LTRBR37G Series) - Lighting indication 9. FPC Connector - Interface with main laptop PCB
