SIX DIGIT NIXIE TUBE ALARM CLOCK KIT INCLUDING IN-16 TUBES
Based around my popular nixieclock2008 microcontroller, this fully inclusive kit will allow you to build a six digit nixie alarm clock
packed with exciting functionality and very pleasing to the eye. The only additional item you will require is a 9-12VDC
wall plug type 2.5mm centre pin adaptor capable of supplying 200mA.
The following features are included:
* Selectable Lead Zero Suppression
* Digit Cross Fade with 9 levels
* Scrolling Date with full validation and leap year correction
* Selectable Date formats: dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy
* Various Digit cycling modes to prevent cathode poisoning including wave and slots cycles.
* Fully adjustable Dimmer Control with 10 levels and 24hr timed dim/ display off function
* Software time correction allowing precise calibration with external time source
* Precise seconds reset function
* Alarm with programmable snooze and tone + alarm indicator
* Neon colon indicators at 1Hz synchronized with seconds display
* Supercapacitor power backup for up to 1 hr in event of power failure.
* Customisable with 14 options
* User friendly three button operation
Completed kit ready for mounting
Assembly instructions and user manual are supplied on compact disc and include over 30 pages of highly detailed construction
You will be supplied with all through hole discreet components necessary to build a working clock, along with a professionally fabricated
PTH HASL printed circuit board made from FR4 and produced to the highest standards. Six IN16 tubes are included which are new old stock
from Russia and should provide many years of service. Two neon bulbs are also supplied. Included is a pre-programmed microcontroller
which provides a multiplexed display at 680Hz that is completely flicker free. All parts are through hole and the kit can easily be assembled in a
couple of evenings with minimal soldering experience

The clock is maintained using three buttons mode, set and advance. The user manual contains detailed setup instructions.
The processor runs from a 4.000MHz crystal and once calibrated should be accurate to within one second
per month depending on temperature variation.
The alarm has a selectable 1-9 minute snooze ability, and can be toggled on/off from normal time mode using the set button.
The output is very audible and has 9 tone settings programmable from the options menu.
