Make A Digital Stop Watch

This document describes a digital stop watch circuit built around a timer IC and 4-digit counter IC with 7-segment LED display. The counter advances on the clock signal from the timer IC. The circuit uses switches to start, stop, and reset the stop watch. Rotary switches allow selecting different time periods from the timer IC output. The circuit can be assembled on a PCB and housed in a metal box for the displays and switches.

Digital Stop Watch

Make a Digital Stop Watch


Description
A digital stop watch built around timer IC LM555 and 4-digit counter IC MM74C926 with multiplexed 7-segment LED display. MM74C926 consists of a 4-digit counter, an internal output latch, npn output sourcing drivers for common cathode, 7-segment display and an internal multiplexing circuitry with four multiplexing outputs. The counter advances on negative edge of the clock. The clock is generated by timer IC LM555. The circuit works off a 5V power supply. It can be easily assembled on a general-purpose PCB. Enclose the circuit in a metal box with provisions for four 7-segment displays, rotary switch S1, start/stop switch S2 and reset switch S3

Testing
First, reset the circuit by pressing S3 so that the display shows 0000. Now open switch S2 for the stop watch to start counting the time. If you want to stop the clock, close S2. Rotary switch S1 is used to select the different time periods at the output of the astable multivibrator (IC1).
