    Common anode or common cathode display?

    Thank you all for the help, the middle pin on both sides are ground, but does that mean it's a CA or is i a CC? I think it might mean it's CC, but please tell me if it is the other way around. again, Thank you all for the help

    Common anode or common cathode display?

    Hello, I am on Module 3 of my electronics 11 course, and I am on section 12: Running a 7-segment Display, lesson 39: Introducing the 7-segment Display, pages 147 and 148 in my “Electronic Circuits for the Evil Genius” guidebook . I am trying to map out the pins, but I can't tell what 7-segment...

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    I checked the diode and the reading I got was .583! does that mean it is damaged? I also checked the 4011 and these are the readings I got Do these readings mean they are busted? Also, what does ESD and U1 mean?

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    The "Electronic Circuits for the Evil Genius" book said that the touch switch replacing R2 would make RC1 time off manually. I had the same set up on my bread board and it worked.

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    The only modification I made was the touch switches. It worked perfectly on the breadboard, but I started to have the problem after I soldered the parts into the PBC. My electronics teacher just replied to my question saying that the IC, D1, and/or transistor could have been damaged by the heat...

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    Hello again I had just built a circuit and I am having a very difficult time trying to ID the current problem with it. It is suppose to turn on with the touch switch and get turned off by the other touch switch. Instead, it turns on when I touch the first switch, and then turns of immediately...

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    + should be connected to leg E and - is connected to.... leg C?.... leg B? I know leg B is connected to pin 10, but the black wire was connected to pin 10 before the PNP... uh... I don't know, the schematic looks like C is connected to Ground? Should the black wire connect to leg C, and do I...

    Nand Gate oscillator help

    Hello again. I got such awesome help last time..... so I'm back again! I am having another problem with my circuit. I am on lesson 29: Using Transistors to Amplify the Output of the "Electronic Circuits for the Evil Genius book", and like the title said, I have to use a PNP transistor to...
