CD4081

The CD4081 quad gate is a monolithic complementary MOS (CMOS) integrated circuit constructed with N- and P-channel enhancement mode transistors. They have equal source and sink current capabilities and conform to standard B series output drive. The devices also have buffered outputs which improve transfer characteristics by providing very high gain. All inputs protected against static discharge with diodes to VDD and VSS.

Digital Tachometer

“The project is about the design of a digital tachometer, a device used in the measurement of speeds of rotating bodies. Story A tachometer is a gadget that is used in the measurement of angular speeds of bodies, more so …

Project  CMOS Clock

CMOS Clock

“Introduction I’ve recently become interested in clock projects, and it seemed appropriate to start by building the essential digital clock assembled from logic chips. Although clock projects exactly like this have been around for the best part of 50 …

IC Egg Timer

“This project demonstrates the basics of digital logic, the characteristics of a NE555 timer, and demonstrates how binary numbers are counted. The components used are: a NE555 timer, a 12-bit ripple counter, two 2-input NOR gates, a 4-input AND gate …

Sequencer (for electronic music)

“A sequencer used for music is a device that sequences musical events for predictable playback. For early electronic instruments these sequencers often take the form of a collection of switches that are cued in series and which trigger some other …

How to Build Your Own Discrete 4-Bit ALU

“Believe it or not, computers existed before microcontrollers and CPUs were around. They used to be built using discrete parts including simple ICs and transistors. CPUs are arguably the center of modern electronics, whether it be a mobile device or …
