The MONOCHRON clock kit is a open source platform for designing clock display and others.

 MONOCHRON® is a new clock kit from Adafruit! This easy kit is easily hackable to do whatever you wish, it's a clock platform - have fun!

  • 128x64 LCD (KS0108) - we special-ordered the black and white display!
  • ATmega328 processor (we even stuck an 'arduino' stk500 bootloader on there too for hacking ease)
  • Laser cut enclosure in black acrylic
  • Beeping/blinking alarm with 10 minute snooze
  • Battery backed-up real time clock (DS1307) keeps time even when power is lost for years
  • European/US and 12/24 hour time display as well as date
  • Completely open source hardware, all firmware, layout and CAD files are yours to mess with
  • Plenty of space for mods, a prototyping area for soldering stuff in

Clock kit includes:

  • components
  • programmed chips
  • LCD
  • coin battery
  • enclosure
  • 9VDC power supply for 220V or 110V

The firmware shipped with the kit is for the Retro Arcade Table Tennis for Two as shown in the video below. We have other clock firmwares available on the project page if you would like to change the display. This clock no longer includes the FTDI Friend + extras for updating the MONOCHRON with new clocks We suggest picking one up if you want to reprogram the clock for how to do this on the MONOCHRON website. 

You'll need some basic soldering & hand tools that are necessary to assemble it! The good news is that this is a pretty basic kit and even if its your first soldering project, it shouldn't take more than 2 or 3 hours to put together
