CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
Digital counters are needed everywhere in this digital world,
and 7 segment display is one the best component to display the
numbers. Counters are needed in object/products counters,
digital stopwatches, calculators, timers etc. To use the 7 segment
with ease, there is a 7 segment driver IC which is IC CD4026, so
we are building 7 segment counter circuit using 4026 IC.
Background of the Study
In digital logic and computing, a counter is a device which
stores (and sometimes displays) the number of times a particular
event or process has occurred, often in relationship to a clock
signal. The most common type is a sequential digital logic circuit
with an input line called the "clock" and multiple output lines. The
values on the output lines represent a number in the binary or
BCD number system. Each pulse applied to the clock input
increments or decrements the number in the counter.
A counter circuit is usually constructed of a number of flipflops connected in cascade. Counters are a very widely-used
component in digital circuits, and are manufactured as separate
integrated circuits and also incorporated as parts of larger
integrated circuits.
Statement of the Problem
The need of the people to have a digital counters for tallying
is the idea for this project. Tallying is very important especially to
those in the field of statistics.
Scope and Delimitations
The project is only confined to a two separate 2-digit
counter, and a set and reset button. Therefore can only display
00-99.
Significance of the Study
The study will be beneficial to the following:
For Students will serve as reference for their projects
For Teachers will serve as their tools or modules for
teaching
For Others or for anyone who wants to have an easy to
build digital counter
CHAPTER 2
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Review of Related Literature & Studies
In electronics, a flip-flop or latch is a circuit that has two
stable states and can be used to store state information. A flipflop is a bistable multivibrator. The circuit can be made to change
state by signals applied to one or more control inputs and will
have one or two outputs. It is the basic storage element in
sequential logic. Flip-flops and latches are a fundamental building
block of digital electronics systems used in computers,
communications, and many other types of systems.
Flip-flops and latches are used as data storage elements. A
flip-flop stores a single bit (binary digit) of data; one of its two
states represents a "one" and the other represents a "zero". Such
data storage can be used for storage of state, and such a circuit
is described as sequential logic. When used in a finite-state
machine, the output and next state depend not only on its current
input, but also on its current state (and hence, previous inputs). It
can also be used for counting of pulses, and for synchronizing
variably-timed input signals to some reference timing signal.
Definition of Terms
Counter- is an apparatus used for counting.
Sequential logic- is a form of binary circuit design that
employs one or more inputs and one or more outputs
Flip-flops- also called bistable gates, are digital logic
circuits that can be in one of two states. Flip-flops maintain
their state indefinitely until an input pulse called a trigger is
received. When a trigger is received, the flip-flop outputs
change state according to defined rules and remain in those
states until another trigger is received. Flip-flop circuits are
interconnected to form the logic gates for the digital
integrated circuits (IC s) used in memory chips and
microprocessors. Flip-flops can be used to store one bit, or
binary digit, of data. The data may represent the state of a
sequencer, the value of a counter, an ASCII character in a
computer's memory or any other piece of information.
CHAPTER 3
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Hardware Specifications
The components we used are the following:
Seven Segment Display
It consists 8 LEDs, each LED used to illuminate one segment/line
of the unit and the 8thLED used to illuminate DOT in 7 segment
display. We can refer each line/segment "a,b,c,d,e,f,g" and for dot
character we will use "h". There are 10 pins, in which 8 pins are
used to refer a,b,c,d,e,f,g and h/dp, the two middle pins are
common anode/cathode of all he LEDs.
IC 4026
Push button
Press-ON-Press-OFF soft toggle action, where a short button press
of a tactile switch latches the circuit ON and another toggles it
back OFF; or, A Press-ON-Hold-OFF action, where a short press
turns power to a circuit ON, but a longer button hold is needed to
toggle it OFF.
Miscellaneous
Resistors (1k ohms)
Software Specifications
Multisim
Multisim simulation and circuit design software gives
engineers the advanced analysis and design capabilities to
optimize performance, reduce design errors, and shorten time to
prototype. Intuitive NI tools result in saved printed circuit board
(PCB) iterations and significant cost savings
Logisim
Logisim is an educational tool for designing and simulating
digital logic circuits. With its simple toolbar interface and
simulation of circuits as you build them, it is simple enough to
facilitate learning the most basic concepts related to logic
circuits. With the capacity to build larger circuits from smaller
subcircuits, and to draw bundles of wires with a single mouse
drag, Logisim can be used (and is used) to design and simulate
entire CPUs for educational purposes.
CHAPTER 4
PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINDINGS
Applications
Digital counters and 7 segment display are used in the following:
Digital clock
Calculator
Electronic meters
Pulse counter
Advantages and Disadvantages
Easy to build circuit
It can use up to 2 or more 7 segment each one having an IC
4026
CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS
Conclusions
Using IC4026 and 7 segment display comes a simple digital
counter with set-reset function. The complexity of the circuit
might be confusing but being careful with regards to the
schematic diagram is the key.
Recommendations
We highly recommend this project to anyone who wants to
build a simple digital counter with a set and reset function for any
educational or whatever purposes it may serve. And because the
project can only display 00-99, we recommend others to build a
digital counter with more 7 segment display.
