Weather station with Arduino Due on 2.2" TFT display

Note: This article is a rearrangement of article from http://arduinotehniq.blogspot.ro/2014/09/arduino-due-and-22-tft-display-with.html

   A usual weather station for domestic use must give us information about temperature and humidity, but a good weather station give us information about pressure, too.
   I design a weater station with 2.2" TFT display with ILI9341 driver.
 I did several experimets with Arduino Uno, then Arduino Mega and my conclusion is that development board are too slow for this display; so, I change classical Arduino board with next step, for me, Arduino Due.
   Arduino Due works with 3.3V logical level like ILI9341 driver, so in schematic we not need the logical level convertor (eg CD4050) from 5V to 3.3V as in case use Arduino Uno or Mega.
   For control the colour display with ILI9341, I use graphical library named ucglib, derivated from u8glib library for monochrome graphical display.
   I decided to use BMP180 sensor for give information about temperature and pressure & DHT11 sensor for give just humidity value, because is not accurate at temperature reading.
   My schematic for sensors at Arduino Due is:
   In my case, real ensemble is:
   For upload a sketch in Arduino Due must install a  new version of Arduino IDE, named 1.5.7 Beta (in future, version will be changed, but now 1.5.7 Beta is current version).
   For DHT11 sensor must use a new library compatible with Due, I found in a article named  Class for DHTxx sensors (xx = 11-21-22-33-44) and for BMP180 I use  Adafruit-BMP085.
   I write some original sketches for this weather station, and last is:

   I made few movies in time of tests, and 2 are in (my) english:
weather station with Arduino Due on ILI9341 2.2" TFT display
weather station with Arduino Due on ILI9341 2.2" TFT display (2)
  All information on display are in roumanian language, by is easy to change "temperatura" in "temperature", "umiditate" in "humidity" and "presiune" in "pressure".

  1. This was very helpful, because I am about to build my own weather station in stages, around a Pro Mini (3.3v version) ILI9341 display and the same BMP180 and DHT11 sensors. I'll use the BMP 180 temp function to give indoor/outdoor temps.

    Later I intend to add an ESP8266 for wireless web serving, and stage 3 will be wind speed/direction using a small turbine pulsing a honeywell SS41 Hall Effect sensor, together with an i2c compass module for wind direction.

  2. Your breadboard wire tangle problems would be solved by C-shaped clips.. They sell them in packs of many sizes! They go flat on the board :P
