Exclamation Need info on 555 monostable into a 4017b chip

hi i could do with just any general info on how a 555 monostable into 4017b circuit works, or uses of this circuit and the positive points and negative points
Thanks

No, do your own research on the web then do your own homework.

Not so long ago people used to have to buy books or go to libraries to get the information
they needed. Now the world wide web is at our fingertips but for many it doesn't seem good enough.

Google "555 CD4017" should show thousands of hits. 555 is a timer, 4017 a Johnson counter.

Sorry for what seems to be a basic question...
In many of these 4017 circuits (like Bill's in post #4), one of the outputs is connected to a Darlington pair (TIP 120) through a 10 K resistor, while many other times no resistor is used to go directly into a transistor. The 4017 outputs only seem to deliver about 10ma, so how should the resistor value calculated?

You wouldn't need it if it only going to put out 10mA some chip are made to drive a transistor from the output. The output is limited in the chip.
