Homemade electronic altimeter-variometer-squeaker (3.3-volt version)
Significantly reworked my altimeter vario project with sound and light signals.
Therefore, I decided to issue the material as a separate article.
As before, there is a parachute and paraglider versions of the firmware.

')
Parachute works with or without a display.
Paragliding - so far without display.
Used inexpensive and accessible components.
What appeared new? What had to be refused?
In the new version of the device:
- power supply from one 3.7V LiPo - cell (instead of the 9 volt element “Krona”);
- Arduino ProMini 3.3V 8 MHz board (instead of 5 volt Arduino Nano V3);
- liquid crystal display Nokia 5110 (instead of the LCD display 1602);
- charge-discharge card LiPo - element with a micro-USB connector.
Sensor Gy-68 (BMP180) I use the same.
Connecting the display from Nokia 5110 to Arduino .
Build (video)
Priborchik changed, became smaller. The size of a small alarm clock.
And if you remove the display, then in a protective helmet will enter!
I think to roll it in shrink, maybe even transparent.
Let it be seen "high-tech" content.
On the left is a battery with a charge-discharge controller, on the right is a board with a sensor and a speaker from a cell phone. Consistently connected to the speaker resistance of 120 ohms. The volume is quite acceptable if placed in a helmet.
Brought in the form of a "tail" wire where you can solder any switch, what your heart desires. I used a regular computer jumper.
The algorithm works all the same. Both parachute and paragliding versions.
Without a display with an element capacity of 100 mA AltVar V2 worked continuously for more than 10 hours.
With display connected (backlight was on)
and an element of 200 mA - more than 7 hours.
No display backlight - more than 20 hours.
The ride on the elevator is a parachute flashing device - it works just like my previous version .
Can be used as a conventional high-precision altimeter variometer.
Information display format:
A: 15 (height in meters)
--- v --- (sign of decline, in the case of climb +++ ^ +++)
V: 0.0 - (vertical speed in m / s)
Paragliding firmware - no display yet. In the display version revealed some sound glitches. Until I figured out why ... Therefore, I do not publish the sketch.
Paragliding version without display works well and this firmware can be used.
The sketch that I used as the basis of my project also works.
Huge my thanks to its author!
The piezo squeezer replaced, as I have already pointed out, the speaker from a cell phone, by connecting a 47 Ohm impedance in series to it.
It sounds quite loud and clear. The speaker put this
All the components of the components I have are indicated in the “cap” of the sketch.
For example, connecting the display (taken from this very “cap”):
Display NOKIA 5110 (blue)
Display 5110 Pro Mini
Serial clock out (SCLK) 3
Serial data out (DIN) 4
Data / Command select (D / C) 5
LCD chip select (CS) 6
LCD reset (RST) 7
VCC (not more than 3.3 volts) VCC
BL (backlight) VCC (for red display - GND)
GND GND
The same compiler - 1.0.6
Stitched with a conventional TTL-UART USB adapter CH340G .
He stands up, does not reset Arduin. Therefore, after compiling, I pressed the RESET button myself.
All firmwares send height, vertical speed and pressure data to the COM port. The truth in the work in this mode, the system can define it as a kind of maykrosoftovsky gadget, and incorrectly working.
In general, it turned out quite simple and quite budget.
I thank everyone who responded to my previous article on this topic.
I took some of your comments into account when creating a new modification of my device.
PS And here is the firmware version for the paraglider.
Compared with the displayless, it is more “inhibited”.
Not so smartly reacting to a change in pitch, there is some delay in the audio response.
The rest is quite workable. Here it is .
