Hello,
I've lobotomized myself trying to build this project. So, can anyone come up with a reliable schematic for a 24-hour countdown clock? Exactly what I need is as follows:
Programmable keypad time entry with Start/Enter button
6-digit LED display
CMOS Logic-level alarm output
Using Standard 4000/4500 Series CMOS I.C.s
9-volt battery-powered
Accuracy +/- 1 minute
Basically, a 24-hour LED egg-timer. I'm fairly certain that this could be done using a PIC or a micro-puke, but I know ZIP about them. I don't want to go that route. Unless there's something like this I could buy. Besides, I already have most of the CMOS chips.
Since I royally suck at circuit design, any help, tips, advice or criticisms, will be entertained. (Even PIC-type stuff as long as it has all the info about programming data and hardware)
I appreciate your time and I look forward to your replies.
Thank you. <ckd>
