VLOG 114 IC POT LUCK - SN74LS164 PT.1.

first of hopefully many IC Pot lucks. each of these projects should amalgamate to a vid on that chip. hopefully will have modular conversions, wether I make them as module modules who knows! but i'll try. im thinking what to do with these to get the most out of them. I sort of like the idea of making modules out of literally the chips, and then modules are mad by plugging modules together. obviously not super friendly with big jacks but cool nether the less! maybe with this project, ill work on modules for them but also build "lunette" style modules where they are connected together by cables. or just make neat breadboards! and make modules out of big chunks of breadboard! who knows. lets see.

soz bout the dirty hands only realised after. was under the bonnet earlier and its always a pain getting the grease off!

it would if you were using the whole chip in a 4017. however its a decade counter it counts to 10. so to make it count to 8, yu0ou need to reset it at pin 8. however it means when you boot it up its always at pin 8 also it gets complicated if you add a sequence shorten switch as if pin 1 is step 8, in a 4 step sequence, its a bit uncanny if you get me?

When clocking and it always start at output 2, then let that output be defined as step 1 and define output 1 as step 8. Wouldn't that solve the problem?

yeah totally! thats why I have buffered the inputs and outputs in the latest vid! but thats what ic pot luck throws in haha. but yeah I have popped a few of these LS series things before in the past, I certainly wouldnt put it like that in any permanent setting thats for sure! and if they were a different series in the box I would have gone with them probably!

Indeed! But it’s seems happy enough here haha. It was enough to show it on breadboard anyways! 😁
