=> 2024-05-21 - Converting from teensy to arduino

For the past few days, I have been converting my weather station firmware to use an Arduino Atmega328P chip instead of a teensy Arm Cortex M7 chip. In my last post, I found that the teensy is significantly overpowered for the job and it could be contributing to why the temperature readings are consistently so high.

It has been a little while since I last wrote about my weather station–almost a whole year in fact. I wrote about how I would go about communicating between my raspberry pi and my micro controller.

In my original plan for my weatherstation, I would wirelessly send weatherdata to a ground station. I have given up on this idea primarily because managing a rechargeable battery would introduce too many variables. Now, I have decided to have a cable that connects between the ground station and the sensors.

Yesterday, I wrote about how I broke and repaird my weather-vane After it got repaired, I was able to get the sensor working in software. Everything worked, but there was one thing odd about the sensor.

I am working on my weatherstation project now, and I’m going to finish it for real! Yesterday I was opening up the weather-vane to reverse-engineer the board it has and make sure what I already know is correct.

It has been a dream of mine to create my own personal weather station (PWS). I’ve been working on this project for over 6 years now. Due to school and scope creep: I have not been able to complete this project.

One of the big things on the to-do list is a charging circuit. I need a charging circuit to allow the solar panel to charge the battery. Lucky for me, the Arduino Feather 32u4 has a built-in charging circuit, but then why would I need a charging circuit?

Starting in April, I have started working on the weather station project again, and I have failed to make any updates since. So I’m going to try to write everything I have done in this past month and a half.

=> 2017-06-17 - Weatherstation: Software

I finished wiring the station, though I would not be surprised if I need to make some last minute adjustments. The last bit of wiring I have done is interfacing with the existing hardware. The rain gauge and anemometer connect directly to the board with an internal pull-up activated.

=> 2017-04-15 - Weather Station Part 2

I have started working on the main board for the station. Adding the transceiver, barometer, temperature, and humidity sensor. It is going pretty well so far. I have not yet tested the rf24 module, though the two other modules I have confirmed to work.

=> 2017-04-04 - Weather Station

I am starting a weather station project, taking an old broken weather station, and getting it to work with Arduino and a Raspberry Pi web server. After a quick inspection of the ports on the old station transmitter, I found that the weather vain uses a 4 wire plug.
