Description
Beschreibung:Description:
Herkömmliche Uhren zeigen die Uhrzeit mit Zeigern oder mit einer Digitalanzeige an.Conventional clocks show the time with hands or a digital display.
Die hier beschriebene Uhr stellt dagegen die Uhrzeit als Text dar.The clock described here, however, displays the time as text.
Die Zeit 12:22 könnte z.B. als ZWANZIG NACH ZWÖLF auf der Anzeige erscheinen. Um eine minutengenaue Anzeige zu erhalten, ist eine zusätzliche Punktreihe, bestehend aus z.B. 5 Leuchtdioden, denkbar.For example, the time 12:22 could appear on the display as TWENTY PAST TWELVE. To obtain a display accurate to the minute, an additional row of dots, consisting of e.g. 5 LEDs, is conceivable.
Die Texte ZWEIUNDZWANZIG NACH ZWÖLF oder SIEBEN VOR HALB EINS zur Anzeige der Zeit sind natürlich ebenso denkbar.The texts TWENTY-TWO PAST TWELVE or SEVEN TO HALF PAST 12 to display the time are of course also conceivable.
In der Abbildung 1 ist eine mögliche Ausführungsform der Uhr schematisch dargestellt.Figure 1 shows a possible design of the clock schematically.
Eine Bedieneinheit (1) steuert einen Taktgenerator (2). Wird kein Taster der Bedieneinheit betätigt, übergibt der Taktgenerator einen Ein-Minuten-Impuls an eine Minutenanzeige (5) und einen Fünf-Minuten-Impuls.an den Adressdecoder (3). Der Adressdecoder adressiert einen Festwertspeicher (4), der die Texte enthält und die Texte an eine Textanzeige (6), bestehend aus einzeln ansteuerbaren Leuchtdioden, übergibt. Die Minutenanzeige schaltet bei jedem Minutenimpuls auf die nächste Leuchtdiode um.An operating unit (1) controls a clock generator (2). If no button on the operating unit is pressed, the clock generator sends a one-minute pulse to a minute display (5) and a five-minute pulse to the address decoder (3). The address decoder addresses a read-only memory (4) that contains the texts and sends the texts to a text display (6) consisting of individually controllable LEDs. The minute display switches to the next LED with each minute pulse.
Durch Drücken der Bedientaster erhöht sich die Taktfrequenz des Taktgenerators, so daß ein Stellen der Uhr möglich ist. Außerdem kann auf einen anderen Datenbereich der Textanzeige umgeschaltet werden, um beispielsweise die Uhrzeit in einer anderen Sprache darzustellen.By pressing the control buttons, the clock frequency of the clock generator increases so that the clock can be set. You can also switch to another data area of the text display, for example to display the time in a different language.
Eine zusätzliche Ausführungsform der Text- Uhr ist in Abbildung 2 dargestellt.An additional embodiment of the text clock is shown in Figure 2.
Über einen Computer (1) und dem angeschlossenen Monitor (2) erfolgt die Erzeugung des anzuzeigenden Textes durch ein Programm.The text to be displayed is generated by a program via a computer (1) and the connected monitor (2) .
Das Programm übernimmt z.B. die digitale Zeitinformation des internen Zeitgenerators des Computers und erzeugt aus dieser digitalen Zeitinformation mittels eines Programmes die darzustellenden Texte.The program takes, for example, the digital time information from the computer's internal time generator and uses this digital time information to generate the texts to be displayed using a program.
