Arduino-Micro-GPS-Clock

Post by Recon977 »

I built the simple-arduino-micro-gps-clock-project located here:

http://www.adafruit.com/blog/2013/01/25 ... k-project/

I would like to run the clock on an external battery source. Any suggestions? I am new to electronics and Arduino projects. Adafruit part numbers would be appreciated.

I was able to solve the issue. 6V not enough. 9V did the trick.

Yup. The regulator need at least 7v to produce a stable 5v output.
