In the Fall of 2020, I challenged myself to do one PCB-based electronics project a week so I can gain more experience regarding electronics projects, specifically with layout, DFA, and BOM consolidation. This is my fourth project; a CD4026 Counter.
Have you ever needed to keep count of something, but keep losing your place? I have that problem a lot, so I made this little counter to help me out!
This counter uses two CD4026s to keep count of the number of times the "INC" button was pressed.
