Circuit Diagram
The CD4017 is connected to LEDs on its output pins. The clock pulse drives the sequence of LEDs turning on one by one.
Steps for the Experiment
- Connect the clock pulse to the clock input of the CD4017.
- Connect the LEDs to the output pins of the CD4017.
- Observe the LEDs lighting up in sequence as the clock pulses.
Explanation
The CD4017 is a decade counter that provides sequential high output on its output pins with each clock pulse. This creates the LED sequence.
Results and Observations
- The LEDs should light up sequentially with each clock pulse from the CD4017.
