PIC16F628 Digital Clock Timer -  This clock timer uses a PIC16F628 microcontroller to display 3 and 1/2 digit time and control an external load.  The clock includes a calendar with leap year and optional daylight savings adjustments.  The timer output can be set from 1 to 59 minutes and manually switched on and off.  The clock also has a correction feature that allows an additional second to be added every so many hours to compensate for a slightly slow running oscillator.  The oscillator uses a common 32.768 KHz watch crystal and the frequency can be adjusted slightly with the 24pF capacitor on the right side of the crystal __ Designed by Bill Bowden

PIC16F84 Alarm Clock -  This is an alarm clock I built.  It was very effective during the sort time I used it, because I programmed it to play a very annoying tune through a speaker.  I actualy started to wake up before the alarm went of, so other people int he house didn't wake up from the anoying pitches it played.  The Jal sourcecode is available on my download page Features * Timekeeping
