Hi
Hi i am Andrew and I am new to this forum. I am in need of some help as i am a novice to electronics, but i can solder ok. The last time i did electronics was in high school about 12 years ago.
I am trying to create a simple circuit using the 4107 decade coutner.
What i am trying to acheive is basically a circuit that when you press a single central button, the next light in sequence lights up, and the previous light turns off.
There are 10 white leds in a circle. And like i said, when you press the button, the led in position 1 turns off and the #2 turns on. Each time you press the button, the next led lights up.
I was told that i need to use the 4017 decade counter and transisters between the light and the counter. I am not sure if this is right or not, but any help is greatly appriciated.
If anyone has created this type of circuit, or can give me any help in being able to make it, that would be grealty appriciated.
Thanks again
Andrew D
