Air quality Monitoring LCD - Realtek Ameba RTL8195

Now that most people stay at home to avoid close contact with potential COVID-19 virus carrier, air quality becomes an important factor to people's well-being, especially in tropical countries where using air-con is a must during the day, as prolonged use of air-con may do more bad than good to people's respiration system thus weakening our immunity and make people more susceptible to virus infection.

Here I am going to show you how to make a simple yet powerful air quality monitoring system using Realtek Ameba RTL8195AM development board and PM2.5 module, together with a TFT LCD display to create a colourful interface.

Preparation

 Ameba x 1

 ILI9341 TFT LCD with SPI interface x 1

 Plantower PMS3003 or PMS5003 x 1

Code Reference

In this example, first rotate the screen by 90 degrees, and draw the static components such as the circles, the measuring scale and the title text. After the concentration value is detected, it is printed inside the circle.
