The Design And Development Of My Circuit Was A Task That Merged Into One Essay, Research Paper
The design and development of my circuit was a task that
merged into one. This is because in order to design a circuit to follow such
guidelines it must be developed and tested.-5
second delay -1

second delay -1
second LED illumination + buzzer sounding in conjunction with start of
stopwatch.To
create this circuit I set out planning what I felt were the necessary chips
needed to develop the circuit. These were the 555, 4013 and 4017. However
the hardest part about the creating of the circuit was connecting these chips
together with the chosen electrical components to form the desired reaction.This
took much time and effort. The circuit was designed, built and tested in
sections focusing on the reaction of each chip.The
circuit was firstly constructed on strip board allowing the components to be
easily moved and enabling a final circuit diagram to be produced. As
development grew deeper the watch/stopwatch was connected to the circuit
creating a total replica of the finished circuit. The circuit was also tested
regularly to ensure that none of the components were being over stressed and
were in danger of burning out.
