I have a 4017 rigged so that i can give it a clock pulse, and it moves between outputs 0 and 1, then resets, so it can only be outputting at 0 or 1 at any given time basically. Vcc is 5.2 V. Output 0 starts high, then when I clock it, it doesnt fall low and 1 doesnt go high. Instead 0 goes to 4.67, and 1 stays low. Then I clock it again, 0 goes to 5.2 and 1 stays low. Does anyone know why the outputs are not cycling correctly? This circuit worked perfectly on the proto board, and when I soldered it together, it behaves weirdly. All solder connections are correct, and all components are tested and work fine. Also, resistors and tying down the correct pins.
Thank you for any help
