What is the IC 4017?

What is the IC 4017?

The IC 4017 can be considered as one of the most useful and versatile chip having numerous electronic circuit applications. Technically it is called the Johnsons 10 stage decade counter divider. The name suggest two things, it’s something to do with number 10 and counting/dividing.

How does the 4017 chip work?

The 4017 chip works off of a clock signal. It advances from one output to the next on the positive (or rising) edge of a clock signal. once the clock goes from LOW to HIGH, at this point the 4017 chip knows to begin and turn on the next output. So it knows when to act based on the clock signal.

What happens when the 4017 goes to the next light?

The 4017 goes to the next light every time the CLK pin goes from low to high – unless the CI pin (pin 13) is set to HIGH. So if you connect the last output (pin 11) to pin 13, the 4017 will ignore any clock pulses after the 10th LED is lit.

What is ic4017 IC?

4017 IC is a CMOS counter/divider integrated circuit, actually a decada counter with 10 decode ouputs. It is […] As the name indicates, the step switch selector circuit is intended to choose one of up to four […] Here is a simple LED chaser simulating a scanner through the back and forth light effect.

How do I connect multiple 4017b IC circuits together?

A number of 4017B IC circuits can be connected together by connecting pin 10 (divide by 10 pin) to the input on the next 4017B IC. The outputs will change at one tenth the speed of the first 4017B IC.

What does the 4017b look like?

PDF FILE- CLICK HERE FOR PRINTABLE WORKSHEET BASED ON THE EXERCISE BELOW The 4017B is an integrated circuit which has been designed to count pulses. It has 16 pins and looks like any other 16 pin integrated circuit.

What is the operational speed of this IC 4017 decade counter?

The operational speed/CLK speed of this IC is 5 MHz. It provides support to10 outputs that are decoded. In various electronic circuit applications, this IC 4017 decade counter is one of the most versatile and useful chips. Practically, it is also known as “Johnson 10 stage decade counter divider.
