I want to design an LED alarm clock with these features:
- a light sensor to dim the LEDs when it gets dark.
- dual alarms, weekday alarm, all-days alarm
- auto DST adjustment
I don't have a background in electronics design. My background is programming (java/C/C++). I've done some hobby projects using resistors, capacitors, ICs, PCB.
What is the best way to get started on this project. I'd like to use minimum number of components to keep the total cost low.
