![]() To increment digit from “0” to “1” we apply one pulse, to increment from “1” to “2” we apply another pulse, to increment to next digit we apply another pulse this is same till digit “9” and the cycle continues. Usually IC4026 is used in applications where the numbers need to be incremented. We know that IC 4026 will always increase the count on the 7-segment display when we apply a clock pulse to clock pin but, how can we decrement digits using IC 4026? Well this is accomplished by using a microcontroller and programming it in a smart way. How to decrement digits on 7 segment display using IC4026: NOTE: The IC 4026 is designed to increment the digits on 7 segment display (and don’t decrement numbers) Pin #15 is reset, if this pin is connected to high the IC will reset the count to zero, it should be connected to ground while counting.We are utilizing this pin’s output as input to another IC4026’s clock-in. Pin #5 is carry out, for every 10 pulses pin #5 gets high or we can say this pin as divided by 10 output.Pin #3 is display enable, making this pin high will light-up the 7 segment display, if this pin is low you can’t see the digits, but it will internally count the digit.It should be connected to GND to enable the count increment. Pin #2 is clock inhibit, if this pin connected to high, the IC will ignore the clock pulses and will not increment the digit.Pin #1 is clock-in where you will input the clock signal.Now let’s see the pin diagram of IC 4026 which drives the 7 segment display. A buzzer is provided to beep alarm when the counts reach zero. ![]() To set time two push buttons are provided, each digit can be set individually. When the time is set, the timer’s digits will count in reverse. The minute digits can be set maximum of 99 minutes and second’s digit can be set maximum of 59 seconds. The proposed circuit will have two digits for minute count and two more digits for seconds count. We will be utilizing 7-segment display to show the counts in combination with IC 4026 display driver. Now let’s dive in to the design explanation of the countdown timer. For example we set 2:00 min to heat some food item, once the timer counts zero it stops its operation.īy now you would have got an idea about stopwatch and countdown timer and when to use these two timers. In countdown timer the amount of time is pre-determined to accomplish a task. ![]() We also use countdown timer numerous points of our life knowingly or unknowingly, for example: Timer on microwave oven. When you reset the stopwatch, it settles at zero. It shows the amount of time it took to accomplish the task from start. ![]() The count is stopped manually when the task is completed. Stopwatch starts from zero count and increments. We use a stopwatch at numerous points of our life to measure the progression of time of many events, for example: In a party game or during a sport event or during cooking to avoid food to overcook or undercook. In countdown timer we set a pre-determine time to accomplish a task, but in stopwatch we measure the time how long the task took to complete. In a nutshell main difference between the two is: We are going to compare between stopwatch and countdown timer in this section.
