“This year I had a special gift for my girl. Earrings that feature an oled screen with animations of her favorite arcade game, Tetris.
The original idea was to have tetris blocks fall from the top of the screen to the bottom and stack up. But in the End I had to settle with a simple scrolling animation of tetris blocks, due to the limited energy budget. It uses a rechargeable lithium coin cell (LIR2032) to power a oled screen and an ATTiny85 micro-controller driving it.
Once the power switch is flipped the display is initialized and cleared then the tetris blocks are drawn in a predetermined pattern. The display is set to auto scroll top to bottom and finally the microcontroller enters deep sleep without any way to return.”
