Experiment No. 1 Binary and Decimal Numbers

The document describes an experiment using a 7493 integrated circuit to demonstrate binary and binary-coded decimal counting. It involves connecting the IC in different configurations to count from 0 to various values in binary and BCD. Procedures include observing the output patterns on indicator lamps and recording the timing diagrams of the outputs using an oscilloscope. The objective is to demonstrate the count sequences of binary numbers and binary-coded decimal representation.

Experiment No.

Binary and Decimal Numbers

I. Objective
To demonstrate the count sequence of binary numbers and the binary coded decimal (BCD) representation

II. Material and Equipment

IC type 7493
Oscilloscope
Clock
Indicator Lamp – 5Vdc rating, 10W

III. Procedure
A. Binary Count

1. Connect the IC 7493 to operate as four-bit binary counter by wiring the external terminals as shown in Figure 1.
2. Connect Pin 12 (output of QA to Pin 1 (input B).
3. Input A at pin 14 is connected to a CLOCK that provide a train pulses at a low frequency of about 1 pulse per
second. This provide an automatic count.
4. Connect the two resets inputs, R1 and R2, to the ground.
5. The four outputs go to four indicator lamps, with the low-order bit of the counter from QA connected to the
rightmost indicator lamp.
6. Apply 5Vdc to pin 5 and ground to pin 10.

8. Observe the four indicator lamps. Describe and Explain: _____________________________________________

9. Increase the frequency of the clock to 10 kHz or higher and connect its output to an oscilloscope.
10. Observe the clock output on the oscilloscope and sketch its waveform using Figure 2.
11. Using dual trace oscilloscope, connect the output of QA to one channel and the output of the clock to the
second channel.
 Note that the output of QA is complemented every time the clock pulse goes through negative
transition from 1 to 0. Also that the clock frequency at the output of the first flip flop is ½ that of the
input clock frequency. Each flip - flop in turn divides its incoming frequency by 2. The four – bit counter
divides the incoming frequency by 16 at output QD.
12. Obtain a timing diagram showing the relationship of the clock to the four outputs of the counter.
13. Make sure that you include at least 16 clock cycles.
14. Connect the channel 1 of oscilloscope at QA and the channel 2 at clock pulses. Observe and record their timing
waveform in Figure 3.
15. Repeat by observing and recording the waveform of QA together with QB in Figure 4.
16. Observe and record the waveform of QB with QC followed by QC and QD, using the Figure 5 & 6, respectively.

B. BCD Count

1. Connect the circuit in Figure 7 to operate as BCD counter.


2. Connect the input to a CLOCK and the four outputs to indicator lamps.
3. Turn on the power.
4. Verify that the count goes from 0000 to 1001.
5. Observe the clock waveform and the four output s on the oscilloscope. Obtain an accurate timing diagram
showing the relationship between the clock and the four outputs. Make sure to include at least 10 clock cycles in
the oscilloscope display and in the composite timing diagram. Describe the output pattern.

C. Other Counts
 IC type 7493 can be connected to count from 0 to a variety of final counts. This is done by connecting
one of two outputs to the reset inputs, R1 and R2. Thus, R1 is connected to QA instead of QB as in Figure
7, resulting count will be from 0000 to 1000, which is less than 1001 (QD =1 and QA = 1).
1. Design a circuit using IC type 7493 to count from 0000 to the following final counts:
a) 0101
b) 0111
c) 1011
2. Verify its count sequence by applying pulses from the CLOCK and observing the output count in the indicator
lamps.
3. If the initial count starts with a value greater than the final count, keep applying input pulses until the output
clears to 0.
