The clock uses ATMEGA328 internal timers to get 1 minute time base which is as accurate as the 16MHz crystal. The code works for Arduino Nano and Uno only. Code has inline C for setting the timers, and wire lib for the OLED.
The DF Player plays many sound formats. The talking clock can be used in other languages. In languages that numbers are read in different order, like Arabic and Hebrew, section of the code has to be adapted and number of tracks changed too. MP3 files in English are included.
The clock reads the tracks from the SD card in the order they are placed in the root directory, not by name of track, the tracks have to be copied one at a time.
Volume pushbuttons are optional.
Display is OLED 0.96", SSD1306, I2C.
DF Player is a mini MP3 player from Ebay.
