TTL Clock with 7447 7490 and 7400 IC's

[blueroomelectronics]

Guess Not!

A can oscillator has four pins.

Thank you all anyway. I will continue experimenting.

The clock is an anniversary present for wife. I have until Aug 1st to complete it.

I'm sure I will will have it all figured out by then.

Thank you all again and take care.

Did she say you have to use 74 series TTL?

I checked up on the 74160 which is a complete different IC than the 7490 IC's which are cascaded after each other, and are not synchronously driven.

The 74160 needs a bounceless positive edge clockpulse to advance the counting.

You may need to add a buffer or amplifier stage to drive the 74160 counters.

Get some 7490 IC's, they are cheap and will work.

Here is a website that show how to connect the 7490 in all of it's divider configs.

Can anyone send me the simplest circuit of digital clock by using IC 74LS90-93, 74LS47 and 7 segment display to my email address "fhnaseer@yahoo.com", send it within one hour, I have to submit it to my teacher, it is a project for my semester, hurry up, within one hour,

Lol you fail.

heres a website to symbolize your failure

Maybe if he didn't spend the semester pulling his wire, he would have had time to draw this simple circuit.

Here it is!

Oh, darn. Too late.

Anyway, just make up six sets of the attachment, but only one timer, of course.

I'll leave it up to you to figure out how to make it count to 12:59:59.

nice schematic iyung w, looks interesting.
I just have some questions with your ckt.
1. What is the voltage input of this ckt?
2. Your 74LS47, 74LS08, 74LS32 and other ICs are not connected to Vdd. Do I have to connect it to Vdd and GND for it to work?
3. Does the 1MHz oscillator needs Vdd also for it to function?

Anyone can answer pls. Thanks

For an accurate 60Hz timebase, you can use a 3.579545 MHz crystal with an MM5369, 8-pin IC with discrete components. Eliminate the ten-hour 7490 and 7447 with a 7474 D flip-flop and transistor wired as divide-by-two that is on from 10:00:00 to 12:59:59.
Out of curiosity, how would you set the time on this clock?

 

[audioguru]

The MM5369 has not been made for many years. It needed a supply of at least 9V for its oscillator to work at the 3.58MHz crystal's frequency and its output current was much too low to drive old fashioned TTL. It was good in an accurate low power Cmos clock.

digital clock

Hello everyone am new to here but am looking forward for a good project that am planning. I would like to build a digital clock. I saw a lot of schematics some of the schematics dont really explain it very well for me since am a newbie in this and still learning. I would really apriciate it if someone showed me step by step on how to do it am currently building something in multisim but am stuck. thats why i would like to start over with someone who could explain step by step thank you very much.

 

[audioguru]

Every year, students ask for the circuit for a digital clock that uses old TTL ICs.

Learn about digital logic then design the circuit yourself. Your teacher expects you to do that, not just copy the circuit from somebody else.

Here's mine. Works like a charm. 7490's with 7447's for the LEDs.

The daughter board is the bridge rectifier. I'm currently working on a new one. Same as the old, but has a better time setting circuit, and will be much smaller. The one that I build basically just uses switches to redirect the 1Hz time base into either the seconds, minutes, or hours sections.

The new clock is going to use a crystal so I don't have to bother with the 60 Hz line. I found a neat trick to get an easy, accurate 1 Hz time base for $6....

Great ! Job well done krye.

I have been to busy with work to post a schema, and build an other TTL clock for which I have the parts and blue LED 7 segment displays.

OK, before anyone blasts me with the "do your own work speech" let me let you that I'm 33, not in school, and this is a hobby. I already made a working 24 hour clock. (see attached pictures) It came out great. I even etched my own board.

I want to have a go at making a 12 hour version. Rev 2 of my clock will pretty much use the same board and chips (7490's and 7447s) I can get the clock to run in 12 hour mode, but the whole AM/PM LED is bothering me. I was going to add a flip-flop, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the LED to stay on when the hours read "12" and then off again 12 hours later.

Anyone have a schematic? I don't want to redo the clock using 7492s since I already have all the 7490s on hand.

 

[krye]

Never mind. I thought I found something, but that wasn't it....

Here we clock again !

Hi Krye,

I don't think I ever built a clock, that makes me the ideal
person to give you some advice on how to build one.

Connect all R9's to gnd, that will make the clock count
instead of displaying six nine's.

QD of U5 and CLKA of U6 are both connected to +5 volt, that's
probably a typo.

The setting for minutes and hours is completely wrong.

And . . . the hours counter will count from 0 to 13 ?????

As I said before, I don't know much about clocks so I could
be wrong.

Hi,

I built a clock 14 years ago using 4000 series chips. I built it on breadboard and used it as my bedside clock for many years. Never got around to putting it in a proper case (as with a lot of the projects I used to build). It was probably one of the last things I built before abandoning hobby electronics until my resumption very recently.

 

[Nigel Goodwin]

Very nice, except that isn't 'breadboard', presumably it's Veroboard? - breadboard is a temporary construction method.
