KevinAlaska Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Probably pretty odd of a thing to make but...I am in the need to make a small thing that has a row of 10 lights (LEDs etc) and with 2 buttons and a speaker giving a tone when one of the buttons is pushed.Button A would turn on one of those lights. hit the button again and it would add a second light and so on and so on, to a max of 10 lights. They would stack next to each other from left to right (from first light to the tenth light)Button B would simply reverse the and take away the last light given to the order.Maybe a 3rd button that would to just reset the lights (no matter how many lights are up). but not needed at all, just handy I guess.Speaker would just give a beep or buzz or something each time the add a light button is pressed.Here is a link to a diagram I did that kind of explains better what I am trying for. I hope it helps. http://images.elektroda.net/75_1179456614.jpgWell if anyone know if this is a possible thing to make, can you let me know. I can then at least start to research it. heh! It has been years sense college electronics class. I should be able to pull out my book some where in storage. :) I guess I really didn't have much to do this weekend anyhow. :) Well best wishes and thank you everyone for your time.Sincerely,Kevin in Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Use the below links to gain an understanding as to how a counter operates.Next, purchase a breadboard along with a variety of connection wires.Finally, start experimenting!http://www.doctronics.co.uk/4510.htmhttp://www3.telus.net/chemelec/Projects/Counter-UD/Counter-UD.htmhttp://www.ibiblio.org/obp/electricCircuits/Digital/DIGI_11.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinAlaska Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Thank you VERY much. I look forward to reading up on that this weekend.Getting back into the electronics thing has been a fun ride. I can't believe how much I have forgotten over the years. I have remembered more then I would have guessed tho.Thank you for the help.Sincerely,Kevin in Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
