DIGITAL CLOCK




*** Explain the construction, working of Digital clock ?
·           A bridge rectifier is used to convert A.C to D.C
·           7805 IC voltage regulator is used for a constant voltage.
·           A least four 7490 counters, two 7447 binary to 7-segment converters are used for construction.
·           330Ω  resisters 20, some normal LED’s, two common-anode 7-segment LED displays are wanted  to design a Digital Clock.

Construction:-
·           A decade counter  (7490) is used to count from 0 to 9 in a natural mode as a cyclic.
·           We get the 4-bit binary number in QA ,QB,QC and QD  pins as output.
·           Up mode counting process is going on it, after getting the maximum count (number) then returns to zero.
·           We “set it Up” by writing the R01,R02 ,R91 and R92  lines.
·           If both R01  and R02  are connected to 5V or logic1 and either  R91  ,  R92   are connected to ground (logic 0)
·           Then counter will reset. i.e QA ,QB,QC and Q become zero.
·           If both  R91 and R92  are connected to 5V (logic1), then the count on  QA ,QB,QC and QD goes to 1001.


Working :
To create a divide by 10- counter:
·           First connect pin 5 to  5V and pin-10 to ground.
·           Then connect pin12 to pin-1 & pins 2,3,6,7 are    connected to ground.
·           Then run the input clock signal from the time base or a previous counter on pin 14.
·           The output appears on QA ,QB,QC and Q .
·            The output of pin11 is connected to the next stage.
To create a divide by 6- counter:
·           First connect pin-5 to 5V and pin-10 to ground.
·            Then connect pin-12 to pin-1 & pin-2 to pin9 & pin-3 to pin-8.
·           Pin- 6 and pin-7 are connected to ground.
·           Run the input clock signal from the time base or a previous counter on pin-14.
·            The output appears on QA ,QB and QC.
·            The output of Pin-8 is connected to next stage.
Creating the second Hand:
·           In this diagram the top two 7490’s divide the 60 Hz signal from the    power supply down by a factor of 60.
·           The 3rd  7490 takes 1 Hz signal as input and divide by 10.
·           Its 4  output’s drive normal LED’s in this diagram.
·           The 4TH  7490 divides the output of the third by 6 and its three outputs drive normal LED’s as well.
Displaying the time as Numerals:
·           To display  the time as numerals we use the 7447 to connect 7490.
·           To power on the 7447 pin-16 is connect to 5V and pin-8 to ground.
·           Connect QA ,QB,QC and Q  from 7490 to pin-7,1,2, &6 of 7447.
·                 Connect 330Ω resistors to pins 13,12,11,10,9,15,14 of the   7447.
·           Connect resistors through a, b, c, d, e, f & g segments to the 7-                   segmentLED.
·            Connect the common anode of the 7-Segment LED to 5V.
To create the minute hand section:
·           We need duplicate “Second hand” portion to create the “Minute hand” section
·           To create the “Hour Hand” portion we want to use an AND gate or inputs of the 7490.
·           After recognizing the binary number 24 ,the hour counter reset to zero.
For a setting mechanism:-
·           For  setting the clock ( digital clock system ) just move the input wires to drive higher- frequency signals into the “minute-hand” section of the clock.
·           In a real clock we use push buttons (or) switches and gates to do the same operation (working).
·           In clocks (or) watches for the alarm & other features we (connected) including low-power chips.
                    The chip is probably embedded directly into the circuit board
