How to make LED Chaser using IC4017

    In this article, you will learn how to make LED Chaser using IC4017. The IC4017 is one of the popular digital integrated circuits which can be widely used in digital logic projects. We will get into deeper about IC4017 below.

    Let’s get started…

    Components Required

    • IC4017
    • 5mm LEDs (Any colour – 10)
    • 1K ohm Resistor – 1
    • 5V Power Supply
    • Custom PCB
    • Male or Female Jumpers

    Tools

    • Solering Iron
    • Nipper

    Working of IC4017

    The CD4017 is a CMOS Decade counter IC. CD4017 is used for low range counting applications. It can count from 0 to 10 (the decade count). CD4017 is as ‘Johnson 10 stage decade counter’.

    Pins 1 to 7 and 9 to 11 are outputs pins. These pins changes to ‘high’ level one by one (one after another) in a sequence. For each clock signal, each pin goes high in a sequence.

    Constructing the circuit

    Connect the components cautiously according to the circuit given above. As clocking the clock pin , the LEDs blink sequentially. This can also be used as digital dice.

    We have designed a simple custom PCB. You can download from the below link.
