Project help: Arduino Powered Bluetooth Key Finder
-
@Geethesh Hello. First of all greetings from makergram community. I would like to brief you with the architecture aka block diagram that you've mentioned.
-
The microcontroller which you are trying to use is good for the application. Your choice of component is very appreciable.
-
Regarding the connection diagram, to answer your question should i want to connect external oscillator circuit my answer is NOO. Because if you look into the datasheet of the Attiny85(same as ATtiny45) you can notice that it has an On-Chip 8MHz oscillator
. So, you can breathe now as you don't have to put an external oscillator circuit. Don't worry about the timing issues, they are industry calibrated.
- Coming to the architecture part, I suggest you not to use HC-05 because it is a Classic Bluetooth. You cannot use them for BLE applications. So, HM-10 can be used for BLE applications. I guess if you have made an little research about this project on youtube you will come across this video Bluetooth Key Finder Video link Please watch this video where he makes a similar project of finding keys in the room using his BLE remote.
Please reach us in case of queries. All the best..!!

@kowshik1729 thank you for replay

Hi @Geethesh, If you are building simple POC (Proof of concept ) or Quick prototype then the HC-05 is enough with the ATtiny.
-
For the ATtiny45 minimum circuit you only need one Pull up resistor for Reset, and one Filter capacitor between VCC and ground and you also need to populate ICSP pins for programming
-
You also need only two external componts HC-05 and Buzzer .
-
In the this project we did't require any external oscillator , the internal 8mhz should be fine .

@salmanfaris thank u for the details and circuit
-
@Geethesh , keep in mind ATtiny series doesn't have Hardware Serial, so you should use the SoftwareSerial for that you also need two more for UART communication (Rx, Tx) between Arduino and Bluetooth.
-
@Geethesh In case if you live near kalamassery(where Fablab is situated) I strongly suggest to go to Fablab where you can find all the necessary tools and IC's required.

@codelery said in Help needed: Arduino Wireless Notice Board project:
I am using the hardware serial (pin 0 and 1 on Arduino Uno)
As @rafitc99 mentioned, you need to expand the Serila buffer, in the hardware serial also the Arduino board package implements a 64-byte ring buffer for send and receive on the hardware serial messages. So you need to change that to 256 as per your message length.
