SEVEN SEGMENT LED DISPLAY

A 7-Segment LED Display is composed of seven segments. Each segment is a LED. An Integrated Circuit (IC) chip, BCD to 7Segment Decoder, is used to convert the four binary Inputs A to D to seven Outputs, which drive the 7-Segment LED Display.

FLIP FLOP
A FLIP FLOP IS A CIRCUIT THAT HAS 2 STABLE STATES AND CAN BE USED TO STORE STATE INFORMATION. FLIP FLOP ARE A FUNDAMENTAL BUILDING BLOCK OF DIGITAL ELECTRONICS SYSTEM USED IN COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATION AND OTHER TYPES OF SYSTEMS.

D-FLIP FLOP
IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS DATA OR DELAY FLIP FLOP. S-R FLIP FLOP REQUIRES CAREFUL DESIGN TO ENSURE SR=11 NEVER OCCOURS. D FLIP FLOP RELIEVES THE DESIGNER OF THAT BURDEN.

WHAT IS A COUNTER
THE DIGITAL CIRCUIT USED FOR COUNTING PULSES IS KNOWN AS COUNTER. COUNTERS IS THE WIDEST APPLICATION OF FLIP FLOP. IT IS A GROUP OF FLIP-FLOPS WITH A CLOCK SIGNAL APPLIED. COUNTERS COUNT NUMBER OF CLOCK PULSES.

INTRODUCTION

THIS PROJECT IS ABOUT COUNTING OF PULSES GENERATED BY 555 TIMER IC FROM 00-99 WITH THE HELP OF IC-4026. IN THIS PROJECT WE HAVE USED 2 SEVENSEGMENT DISPLAY TO DISPLAY THE COUNT. THE COUNTER IS AN UP-COUNTER WHICH COUNTS FROM 00-99 AND AFTER WHICH IT RESETS TO ZERO.

USES: PROVIDE TIME DELAY AS AN OSCILLATOR AS A FLIP FLOP ELEMENT
