Hi guys. I have another question that I wanna ask you all.. Look at this following circuit http://www.aaroncake.net/circuits/counter.htm
And now on the datasheet for 74LS47 - **broken link removed**
I can't really figure out where my pin 3-5 and 4 shall be connected.
In single digit applications pins 3, 4 and 5 will not be used, so connect inputs (LT and RBI) to +5V and leave RBO not connected ..
In multidigit applications if you want to suppress leading "zeros" you will be using RBI and BI/RBO pins:
If the input data is decimal zero, a LOW signal applied to the RBI blanks the display and causes a multidigit display. For example, by grounding the RBI of the highest order decoder and connecting its BI/RBO to RBI of the next lowest order decoder, etc., leading zeros will be suppressed.
"So this curcuit is actually running at 32khz now. How did you calculate it to that.?"
555 has a formula for T, or f if you like, and using that formula you can estimate the periods (T=T1+T2) .. see any 555 data sheet and you will find it out ..
Can someone explain to me, why he using 2x 555.
and why can't spot C3,C4 on the detector shematic, when i can see them on the component reference list.
Added after 42 minutes:
I got the sender and reciver to work a bit. The problem is When I power up my reciever circuit, and measure the output of the LM339 it is slowly raising up. Why is that.? It takes rougly 10-30sec for it to gain the 5V.
