Join me on my journey of reverse engineering a common kitchen timer LCD. This video shows how to use common kitchen timers with 4 digit LCDs, and controlling the segments to print out text.
The heart of this project is a custom PCB, designed as a drop-in replacement for the original kitchen timer circuit. The TM1621D LCD driver on the PCB is controlled by either an attiny13a or an ESP12E module, providing flexibility.
If you need wifi and memory, solder ESP12E module. If you dont need those, and have a simple application in mind, solder attiny13A.
The programming for this project is done using the Arduino framework.
