SteveD Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hi,the short answer is yes, the retrocade wing could be used to build a digital alarm clock. The display would be very small. Have you considered using one of these? http://www.gadgetfactory.net/logicstart-megawing/It has a much larger LED display. Easier to see night and day. Functionally you will need:1) Oscillator pulsing at 1Hz. Research the Spartan DCM module.2) Some counters, e.g. hours, minutes3) Display control logic e.g. binary to 7 segment converter, display multiplexer. Most digital electronics texts will show you how. Wakerleys "Digital Design" (4th ed) is an excellent source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
