How to Cascade IC 4033 in Multiple Digit Counter Display
In this article I will comprehensively explain how to cascade many 4033 ICs together for driving multiple 7 segment counter displays. In one of my previous articles I have uniquely explained the role of pin#3 and pin#4 which become crucial when the IC 4033 are intended to function for driving multiple displays. Multiple Digit Display […]
Simple Digital Timer Circuit with 2 Digit Display
This simple digital timer circuit can be used to obtain timing output through selectable ranges, which can be set from 0 to 99 second, with 1 second interval, 0 to 990 seconds with 10 second interval, and 0 to 99 minutes with 1 minute interval. All these timing outputs can be visualized and tracked through […]
5 Digit Frequency Counter Circuit
This digital frequency counter will provide a direct reading of the frequency applied at its input, through a 5 digit common cathode display module. The compact frequency counter can be used for accurately counting the frequency or pulse from any intended source. Main Applications It can be also used for measuring the RPM of a […]
3-Digit LED Capacitance Meter Circuit
This project is yet another test equipment that can be extremely handy to any electronic hobbyist, and building this unit can be a lot of fun. A capacitance meter is a very useful test equipment as it allows the user to check a desired capacitor and confirm its relaibility. Ordinary or standard digital meters mostly […]
