555Timer, 7440 Counter, and 7475 Latch
555Timer, 7440 Counter, and 7475 Latch
(OP)
Right now I have a 555 Timer set for 2ms. The pulse feeds into a 74HC40 binary counter. The signal then travels from the counter to a 74HC75 Latch and from there to LED's. The expected timing coming out of the counter is correct (they've been measured with an oscilloscope). However, the LED's are lighting up in half the time (literally). The not output of the latches are going through an inverter and a NAND gate and back into the clock (reset) of the latch. Any idea as to why the LED's are lighting up in half the time the pulses are coming out of the counter?
