Abstract
Dice is used to play many games like snake ladder, Ludo etc. Generally dice is made up of
wooden or plastic, which gets deformed with time and become biased. A Digital dice is a
good alternative of old fashioned dice, it can’t be biased or deformed. It operates at such high
speed that no one can cheat. To create this digital dice circuit, we have mainly used 555 timer
IC and 4017 IC.
Material Required:
• D4017 IC
• 555 Timer IC
• Resistor- 10k (3)
• Capacitor- 10µF,100µF
• ON/OFF Button
• Push Button
• 6 LEDs
• Battery - 9v
• Connecting wires
Working Principle:
In this digital dice circuit we have used 6 LEDs, each LED represent a number (1-6) of Dice.
LEDs start flashing as we press the Push button and stops when we release it. After release,
illuminated LED tells the numbers, you got on Dice. Like if fifth no. LED remains ON after
releasing the button, means you got 5 on Dice.
To apply the clock pulse at PIN 14 of 4017 IC, we have used 555 timer IC in Stable mode.
The oscillated output generated at PIN 3 of 555 has been applied to the PIN 14 of 4017, so that
output can be advanced with each clock pulse
In this digital dice circuit we have kept the oscillation frequency so high that no one can cheat.
LED flashing speed is directly proportional to oscillation frequency of 555, as High the
frequency, as high the speed of flashing.

Description:
4017 IC
4017 IC is a CMOS decade counter chip. It can produce output at the 10 pins (Q0 – Q9)
sequentially, means it produce output one by one at the 10 output pins. This output is controlled
through the clock pulse at PIN 14. At first, output at Q0 (PIN 3) is HIGH, then with each clock
pulse, output advance to the next PIN. Like one clock pulse makes the Q0 LOW and Q1 HIGH,
and then the next clock pulse makes the Q1 LOW and Q2 HIGH, and so on. After the Q9, will
start from the Q0 again. So it creates sequential ON and OFF of all the 10 OUTPUT PINs.
Below is the PIN diagram and PIN description of 4017:
13 CLOCK Clock enable pin, should kept LOW, keeping HIGH will freeze the
inhibit output.
14 CLOCK Clock input, for sequentially HIGH the output pins from PIN 3 TO
PIN 11
15 RESET Active high pin, should be LOW for normal operation, setting
HIGH will reset the IC (only Pin 3 remain HIGH)
2 TRIG The OUT pin goes high and a timing interval starts when this input falls below 1/2 of CTRL
voltage (which is typically 1/3 Vcc, CTRL being 2/3 Vcc by default if CTRL is left open).
In other words, OUT is high as long as the trigger low. Output of the timer totally depends
upon the amplitude of the external trigger voltage applied to this pin.
4 RESET A timing interval may be reset by driving this input to GND, but the timing does not begin
again until RESET rises above approximately 0.7 volts. Overrides TRIG which overrides
threshold.
5 CTRL Provides “control” access to the internal voltage divider (by default, 2/3 Vcc).
6 THR The timing (OUT high) interval ends when the voltage at threshold is greater than that at
CTRL (2/3 Vcc if CTRL is open).
7 DIS Open collector output which may discharge a capacitor between intervals. In phase with
output.
8 Vcc Positive supply voltage, which is usually between 3 and 15 V depending on the variation.
