I'm working on a circuit which I mentioned in this thread. https://www.electro-tech-online.com/threads/help-i-need-a-digital-project.1487/
Now I'm just trying to get the one 4017 to work before I wire the whole project. Correct me if I'm wrong. I want the 4017 to work as a counter...
So...
Pin 8 goes to ground
Pin 16 goes to Vcc
Pin 13 goes to ground (Clock Enable)
Pin 15 goes to ground (Reset)
Pin 14 is the clock
All other pins are outputs for the counter.
I went to this site:
http://www.geocities.com/it2n/counter.html
which says that pin 13 should be high, which I think is wrong.
Can I use a switch setup as shown in the flash animation for the clock input or do I need a 555 for it?
Thx.
