Electricity and Piping 101

Not quite sure yet, but I have been trying to come up with a good idea for something challenging.

I just wrapped up some different logic, which I will likely post about after a good night’s sleep. This time a 4-bit binary counter using a Push Button, which will then increase or decrease the count depending on a Wall Switch. It also has a reset with another Push Button.

My intention is to try an alternative way to count multiple inputs (more than the 4 I previously did). I can get it to work using this counter, by pulsing it whenever a switch is turned on or off, together with the new state (increase/decrease). It will just not be reliable for quick changes of switches, which my previous version is. It may also result in a bit more delay once I have hooked up a duo 7 segment display, considering the new count going from 0 to 15.

All fun and quite a challenge in itself …
