Simple Arduino based Alarm Clock with DS1302 RTC
Hello everyone, in this project we’ll try to make an easy alarm clock with Arduino UNO board, this project is a mix of different modules that I used before, if you’re stuck on something you can check in the website for the module tutorial, because that’s how I usually work: Do things separately and then start mixing :D.
For this project we will need:
Arduino UNO Board, or you can use what suits you:
DS1302 RTC module:
4*4 Matrix Keypad module:
LCD i2c screen:
Buzzer module, or the 2 pins buzzer:
In case you’re stuck on something you can check these previous tutorials about the modules above:
How to setup DS1302 RTC module with Keypad + Arduino + LCD

Wiring:
Libraries and Code:
LCD i2c library You can chose this or download your own
Keypad library Or you can download it from Arduino IDE
RTC DS1302 virtuabotix library
Code: RTC_alarm_clock.ino (Major changes were made 12/04/18)
Code functionning is pretty simple, after wiring the module you can press “*” to set the time and date on the DS1302 RTC, the display will show then the current day and time if you want to set the alarm you press “A” and you can set which hour and minute, and you can deactivate it by pressing “B” before time or pressing any button while ringing.
I hope you like it, any problem you can contact me.

Hi, very interesting project, I’m beginner in this field. Could you tell me please, is it a lot to change the RTC module for another one (1307 or 3231)?
Hi, you should modify the wiring, library and all the functions related to the RTC.
