Seven Segment Driver Series With IC 74HC595

View Article
The seven segment series is a series that serves to control the 7 segment display. Seven segment itself is basically a combination of several LEDs that form a digital number pattern. To turn seven segment in accordance with the desired number then it takes a series of seven segment drivers. The seven segment driver series is actually optional, can be used can not. If not using 7 segment driver circuit, 7 segment connection can be directly connected with microcontroller controller. A series of seven segment drivers is required if the display used is large enough, so the voltage required to power 7 segments is also large. For such cases a 7 segment driver is required as an intermediary between the microcontroller with 7 segments.

There are so many types of seven segment series that you can use. You can find references in google about this segment 7 segment driver. On this occasion I will discuss one of a series of seven segment using TTL IC type 74HC595. This IC is an IC shift register, its function is to change the input in the form of serial data into parallel data which will be connected to 7 segment display. But this series you can develop for drivers more than 4 digits once you understand the working principle.

seven segment circuit

IC 74HC595 has some input and output pins. The input consists of the following pins:
  • SH_CP, is the clock input pin
  • DS, is the input pin of serial data
  • ST_CP, is the data latch pin
  • MR, is the clear pin output. If this pin is low then the output will be all 0
  • OE, Output Enable pin that serves to enable output
While the output of IC 74HC595 consists of pins Q0-Q7 and Q7 '. Pin Q0 - Q7 is a parallel data output that is inserted serially from the DS pin. While pin Q7 'is a serial output that can be connected with other IC 74HC595, as seen in the picture above 7 segment above.
Serial data inputted through the DS pin, every 1 bit of data must be accompanied by 1 cycle clock. The serial data entered as much as 32 bits, because the above circuit there are 4 pieces IC74HC595 where 1 piece of IC has 8 bits of output data. After 32 bits of data entered, to output the output in parallel concurrently pin ST_CP must be set high then low.
The seven segment series is quite simple and cheap to make. There is one more 7 segment driver circuit that uses IC MAX7219. The principle works more or less the same as IC74HC595.

Simple Power Supply Circuit Suitable For Beginners

View Article
Simple Power Supply Circuit is a must-have on an electronic device. Power supply circuit has the main function to supply voltage for other circuit. In electronic appliances such as TV, Computer, DVD or others need power supply. Power supply is also very needed for you who hobby in the field of electronics. To conduct experiments to make electronic circuits, surely need a power supply as a voltage source. Actually a lot of power supply is also sold in the market in a ready-made form. But maybe the price is somewhat expensive for you. Well, therefore in this tutorial I will discuss the topic about making a simple power supply circuit that you can practice at home. Make sure you understand basic about electronics if you want to practice how to make this power supply circuit.

Parts In Power Supply Circuit:
  1. Voltage Reduction (Step Down)
  2. Rectifier Circuits
  3. Filter Range
  4. Voltage Stabilizer Circuit (Regulator)
Voltage circuit is a circuit that serves to reduce the AC voltage from 220 volts to a lower voltage. As you know, the power voltage in our house is 220 volts AC. To make the power supply circuit, 220 volt AC voltage must be lowered first so that the voltage becomes lower. The voltage drop can use step-down transformer.

Rectifier circuit or commonly called a rectifier circuit, is a circuit that serves to make the AC voltage (back and forth) into DC voltage (unidirectional). This circuit uses a combination of several diodes. There are 2 types of rectifier circuit that can be used to make power supply. Among others are as follows:
  1. Half Wave Rectifier
  2. Full Wave Rectifier With 2 Diodes
  3. Fullwave Waveguide With Diode Bridge
Voltage stabilizer circuit or commonly referred to as a series of regulators, is a circuit that serves to stabilize the voltage at a certain value. This circuit usually uses a special IC regulator. There are 2 types of regulator ICs that are usually sold in the market that is Linear Regulator and Switching Regulator.

Linear regulators are widely used to make simple power supply circuits. Because this type of regulator pretty much sold in the market. This linear IC regulator is usually glowing 78XX or 79XX. Where XX is the regulator output voltage. Example if the desired power supply with output voltage of 5 volts then linear IC regulator used is 7805. If desired is a power supply with 12 volt output voltage, then used is IC regulator 7812.
