Building Blocks
|
Potential Dividers. | Use to control voltages in a circuit. |
|
|
Op-Amps. (7) | Use as a comparator to switch circuits. |
|
555 Monostable | Use 555's to create Monostable timing circuits giving on/off delays. |
|
|
555 Astable | Use 555's to create Astable circuits. |
|
|
555 Bistable | Use 555's to create Bistable circuits. |
| Electronic Switches. |
Use transistors and logic gates. Switch bounce elimination circuit. |
|
| Counters. | Use decade counters to achieve simple counting ie. CMOS4017IC. | |
| Interface Devices. | Amplifier / transducer drivers (limited to Darlington pairs, op-amps, FET's, bi-polar transistors, Thyristors. | |
| Pulse Generators (Astable). | Use logic gates and timer IC's (555) to create pulse generators with both equal and unequal mark/space ratios at a range of frequencies. | |
| Output Devices. | Lamps, LED's, buzzers, bells, loudspeakers, and piezo transducers. |
