Great beginner lesson on binary logic Paul! Thumps up!
+TRXBench
Thanks Mr.P! Looking forward to your next video :^)
I dont think so.
Readme .txt, you are very negative under many video tutorials. You need pay closer attention to lessons and write down notes. Replay videos a few times. For best results, at first play, listen first while leaving off notewriting. Play the video again, listen twice and three times. Give yourself break from video. Later times, you might remember something that pops into your mind. It happens. Go back to playing video and write notes. If studies are too complex, then simplify your studies by summarising.
My studying techniques, my shortcuts for learning - whatever studies are too difficult, I take screenshots of webpages and parts of video tutorials, store screenshots inside Google Slides and attach brief notes plus links. I always include links on every screenshot. I sometimes write offscreen comments under slides. Believe this or not, Google Slides hugely helps simplify your studies. To take screenshots on your tablet, just press down together the two buttons: the power button and home button. Go to video tutorials and take pics of what interest you. Go to websites , zoon in areas of interest and photograph them.
In your Google Slides, screenshots will act as memory triggers and thumbnails as visual bookmarks. Whatever lessons that you have forgotten, you can always refer to Google Slides which will refresh your memory.
Feeling my years on this one! I remember, back in the day, late '70s, the first redesign of the Zenith System III chassis, when sales representatives from Sencore came-a-calling with advanced dual-trace, digitally triggered scopes, high-quality logic probes, and frequency counters, all in the name of "binary/digital electronics", and the "future of television repair". The aging, "tube moderated" techs said the heck with it, for the most part. The borderline "solid state techs" floundered, and the rest of us took classes at tech schools, colleges, or via correspondence courses (ICS and DeVry, most often) to stay current. Another trip down memory lane, many thanks!
+AMStationEngineer
When I was very young, I remember seeing this happen. I knew some older TV techs, and they had no interest in that "Silly solid state stuff." It was tough for some of the last generation to keep up in a (at the time) very fast moving, changing technology. You just brought me down memory lane as well.... LOL. Thanks for the write!
Mr Carlson's Lab Should I ever make you feel "aged", please, feel free to complain, as my "odometer" never made it past the 1970's!
LOL!
+AMStationEngineer Same here my friend. Same here :)
Your tech-tips tuesday series is extremely well made and helpful. I don't miss an episode :)
+Róbert Valdimarsson
Thanks Robert! I will try to keep the trend up. I'm in the middle of a really in-depth troubleshooting and restoration video, (not yet done) these Tuesdays have been hard to fit in.
I can watch your videos 20 times and never get bored. I program PLC's. Allen Bradly mostly these days, Siemens and many others over the years This is immensely helpful for understanding what goes on in the background
Everytime I watch Paul I am amazed. Learning so much. No wonder it only took a handful of videos to become a Patreon supporter!
Amazing couple minutes in and I can basically count in binary. Never thought I'd learn that without alot alot of reading. Such a well done video. I will be binge watching all your videos after Christmas.
Glad you found this helpful!
First I am giving1000 of thumbs-up for this video, I am not a science graduate, I seen ICs in the electronic components, but the first time I learnt how it works in the real situation. Your explanation and experiment are very impressive. Thanks a lot once again.
one 17 min video just outdid 17 weeks in class. GREAT VID!!!!!
Now, this is a real lesson! And not the usual so called "tutorials" where you get even more questions than answers. I also had binaries lesson when I went to a Sound Tech school and have never seen it so clear before. Thanks!
It has been so long since I saw a truth table, and in a school setting we get all of the necessary info. Some of the ones the manufacturer provides were as clear as mud, but you've done a great job clarifying all of the labels.
Thanks, Mr. Carlson. This got some old memory cells started. It's has been sens 1976, digital logic (7400 TTL) was a big thing back then. At Fullerton college in Fullerton, Ca. We had a lot of fun with these chips. Mostly slowing them down, their logic trans were in the millions of pulses per second. We made digital clocks (not time clocks, like wrist watches) .
Great explanation there Mr. Carlson! I didn't have a clue about binary before, but I get the idea now. The learning never stops!
A great book to learn how logic and linear IC's work is: The Master IC Cookbook. It goes all the way back to first IC's thru 1991 with the 2nd edition, so it doesn't address the advances since then but covers all the basics.
Thanks Paul, great job as always!
No joking around, I was trying to understand this concept for about 30 years and this is the only thing that really made me get it! Thank you so much, as usual!
Glad I could help!
Great video Paul. I really appreciated all you do in these vids, awesome.Jim
Mr. Carlson, you are such a wealth of information. To be so knowledgeable and to be able to teach it so clearly is a true gift. I am so glad to have stumbled across your channel.
Thanks for your kind comment, glad you're enjoying the channel!
Your awesome - Learned in 17 minutes what would take 1 week to master
Thanks Paul, another great video. I usually watch at 1080p full screen; the PQ is excellent and the audio sounds great.
+Shaun Merrigan
Thanks Shaun! Working around that tripod is fun stuff..LOL, good thing I have long arms :^)
I'm glad you went with the '4511 because of the appearance of 6 and 9, which are more distinctive without their tails on segments a and d.
+Eric Wasatonic
I really like the missing "A" segment myself as well. I remember why I choose this particular IC, many years ago I designed a programmed sign board to take UHF frequencies and automatically turn them into channel numbers to be displayed on vehicles, all automatically. That #6 took the confusion out of the sign at a distance. The other way, the# 6 was only one segment from an 8. At a far distance, this could be confused. I may show that programmed box one time in a video. Thanks for your comment Eric!
+Mr Carlson's Lab Good logical explanation.Your video gets my Thumbs up.
Thanks Yustech!
Wow.. I knew how it worked, but I never knew HOW it worked. Thanks man, this is enlightening.
Thanks Paul, great refresher tutorial.
This is great. I'm completely dumb electronics-wise so lately I have been learning about resistors, capacitors, etc - basic stuff and now this comes my way. Step by step I am becoming more and more literate and although I'm at the beginning, the inside of my receiver and tape recorders don't look intimidating anymore. Thank you for this.
+I967
Glad to read this is taking the edge off! Soon you will be designing boards.
Thank you Paul this Tech tip takes me back 30 years or so and had you covered logic gates as well I would feel really old lol
Thanks Ernest!
thank you very much Mr Calrson. this is exactly octa code. I have nearly forgot it but your explanation is wonderful. Saw these ICs many times but never understood how they work
You are the most amazing electronics teacher ever... I finally understand completely
Thanks! Glad the video helped.
I remember when this was just coming out. Best explanation I've heard. Thank you for sharing.
All my best.
Bobby
+Bobby Tectalabyss
Thanks for the kind words Bobby!
Yet another great video that helped me understand something I didn't understand previous. Thanks.
Wooooow that's the best and most clear explanation I've seen on UA-cam. Since college I've wondered how the heck do we know how to use those ICs but never actually has the tools or time to do experiments. I've had lots of electronic components during college years and learned a whole bunch by just testing but never really got a good catch of how ICs work and how to read them. This actually clears up a lot of confusion. Thanks mate 👍 Instantly subscribing.
Thanks for your kind feedback, and welcome aboard!
Amazing... really great explanation and easy to understand... thanks a ton for all your knowledgeable videos
Great video, love all your videos. I can't wait for your next "really in-depth troubleshooting and restoration video".
+Warik Yacent
Thanks Warik! The next in-depth troubleshooting video is in the making.
my major is english lang and lit. and had no info about what binary is so far. i am just watching this for 12 min and it is like a miracle. thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed!
And now i know why ICs have letters on the pins. Great! Thanks!
Nice one Paul, looking forward to more great content. Would be nice to see stuff around PCB making, discrete components and maybe old school micro-programming.
+Syed Mazahir Rizvi
Good ideas for a future video Syed!
I really enjoy your videos! It's nice relearning to such clear and concise instruction! I look forward to more!
+Joel Miller
Thanks Joel, glad your enjoying the video's!
Hey Paul,
This is one of the best videos I have seen on binary logic & unlocking the secrets of the IC!
Thanks Max!
Thanks for the great lesson! I'm looking forward to your future videos!
+ScanMan79
Thanks!
Finally have a bit of understanding about these kind of IC's.Thanks a million.Please do more for us beginners!
+yustech
More coming in the future. Thanks for your comment!
Nicely explaination . binary mean 2 value 0 and 1 zero /off and 1 mean input /on. transistor as a switch device.
nice work on explaining (0,1).
I like that breadboard red/green led setup,
smart way to check the pins
+Nexfero
Thanks!
Great video Paul, I wish you had of been my instructor when I first was learning about binary and ICs.
+Kevin Elliott
Thanks Kevin!
one of the best videos on UA-cam, respect.
Really good stuff. For those of us who grew up in the analog world, digital logic has always been a mystery. Keep up this series!
+Bill Moran
Thanks Bill! I will revisit logic in a future video.
Great video! I knew how to use pull down resistors, but I never understood exactly how they worked for some reason.. It's all clear now, thanks!
+KingNast
Glad this helped!
i like your videos and they are getting watch later tags because there is a great amount of information and they are like watch more than once videos to really absorb the information. i will be a patron because the content is well worth it.
Great big thumbs up here Paul. Very glad you posted this video. I have struggled with binary for years. But your tech tip just opened my eyes. Going to post this one on my website for future reverence. This may just fill in some blanks in trying to come up with a new ram board for the IC-745. Thanks again!
+The Radio Shop
Thanks Buddy! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thank you for such a great video! You have a gear way of explaining and your passion for electronics is awesome! This explained a lot and helped simplify the binary relationship. I figure the Vdd and Vss is to actually power the IC (and show zero) with Vdd being supply + and Vss being ground or -.
Thanks Paul...You always make sense, out of very complicated theory!
Wonderful presentation! I very much appreciate the effort you put into creating these lessons. Thank you!
+Bobbr3
Your welcome, glad your enjoying the video's!
Superb teaching!
I think it's important to note that these datasheets are not written with Joe Shmo Beginner Hobbyist in mind. They're written for system integrators who already have a firm grasp of the basics. Some of this stuff, like how to convert at least unsigned integer binary to decimal or that +logic level generally = 1 while ground = 0, are just stuff we have to know when we're working with these things.
Wow amazing, not only you are highly skilled in electronics, but you're an outstanding teacher.
Mind-blowing! Thanks for your time.
My pleasure!
Great video!! Thanks! Finally got to see how binary finally works with hardward! Really Awesome video! Thanks!
Great Tips Tuesday Paul. One caveat, as you were reading off what you called a "binary number" i.e. the D0-D3 sequence on the bottom (left side) of the chip layout was actually in the order D1-D2-D3-D0 which read as 1000; obviously not the number 2 in binary (think it would be 0010). Didn't want someone to assume the actual binary number representation was in that order, that is unless I'm nuts which is entirely possible! Keep the videos coming! 73 - Dino KL0S
+Dino Papas
LOL, your not nuts Dino. If you were to put D1-D2-D3-D0 in the order like you explained, the code for #2 is 1000. This is simply putting the correct logic level to the right pins of the IC "directly" (not the chart order) Thanks again for the kind words!
Another amazingly well explained video!
+Cpro Nikkor
Thanks Cpro! More to come...
Excellent! I love your channel!
Incredibly easy explained. Thank you!
thank you mr carlson
How do you add the function addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication to the IC or microchip?
You just opened a whole new world to me. Thank You!
Ripper!
Thanks for the binary explanation, That's a great and simple way converting base10 to binary, Thanks for your time!
Dear Sir.. Great and awesome vedio, I liked it, it's really a value....Thank u very much indeed. ...
wow i have seen a few of your videos now and you are a great teacher. nothing is left to chance with you its all detailed explanations with you. i took a course at a community college and you are ten times better than that instructor. chips look intimidating until you break them down. thanks.i will be following your channel now. its like formal education.
Glad you enjoyed Mike, Thanks!
very clear, and informative
nice video, your a great teacher, thanks Paul
+jeff b
Thanks for your kind words Jeff!
Very helpful, Great! looking forward for more Logic gates videos.
My Next video will have lots of 74 series logic in it. Glad you enjoyed Ravindra.
Excellent Mr. C, would be thrilled if you took this to the next level such as how the inputs are generated to the binary. Like in the volt meter you make reference to. Your instructions are the best, but this one left me wanting to know where and how the fast inputs are created. regards ...greg
+pkav8tor
I may do a video on designing a voltmeter or frequency counter from scratch in the future. If so, I will cover how fast the binary is switching at different stages. Glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks for your suggestions.
Great video, Paul thanks, Greg
+Gregory West
Your welcome Greg!
Hello Paul, Thank you very much for the nice presentation. It would be great if you could have in your future list another video on "how control a Logic chip with a controller".
+esmaeil nam
Good possibility for the future Esmaeil. Thanks for your input and comment!
Wow you are really good at explaning it, i acually dig it
Great video, thanks. This subject has never been explained as well to me.
Your welcome Joe!
Great lesson and easily to understand, thanks!
You're Welcome!
Thanks Paul never knew much about how these thing worked.
+Jack neff
Your welcome Jack!
A very nice cogent explanation. Thank you.
Really good video.thanks man.we need many videos like this so that we can improve our knowledge
Best explanation I have ever seen
thanks for such a great video sir
Thanks for making another great video. I wish I had seen this in ~1980s when I was first starting to play with electronics, but abandoned playing with digital stuff because there was no info available where I was. I am sure I can still come up with a use for it. :)
You're Welcome Vic!
Great tutorial, you're a fantastic teacher
+brickscratch
Thanks for the kind words!
Excellent video with a lot of hard work...
Great Video. really helful. very nice Explanation Sir. thank you very much sir. GBU.
Excellent talking, amazing!
I enjoyed this video, because it took me back to my college years :) Maybe you might make a very short video as a follow-up explaining people what the stripe above LE or CLK or ACK and so forth mean, or what other such typical abbreviations that look mysterious to most mean.
In any case I would say it tastes as more :) Keep it up !
+TechneMoira
Glad you enjoyed! I will revisit this stuff :^)
Great video Mr Carlson!!!!
WOW! I really have learnt something again! just love your vids. Thank you.
Glad you found this helpful!
Good, free, non systematic, education for all, always gets a big thumbs up comrade. ;)
I groaned when I saw the title of this video but you’ve managed to make an “analogue” style take on digital video, so the lack of valves is forgiven here :-)
+William Reeve
Thanks William! Hey, if I can keep valve guys watching through a digital explanation, I must be doing something right... LOL :^)
Thanks a lot for this video, this kind of video means a lot to the beginner like me...
great explanation bro ... sounds good ... good session for beginners we felt our own hands on experience after looking at your presentation ... Congrats
Thanks Paul. That's good to know since I haven't got into binary logic much.
+Robert Calk Jr.
Glad you enjoyed Robert!
Awesome explanation !!!
amazing! very comprehensive.
Great video. I really did enjoy it and learned a few things. Your wiring would Drive Ben Eater nuts though.
great explanation sir
Cool video when I was at beginning my secondary school I wanted to build something digital but slightly more complex so... yes you guessed it frequency counter but I wasn't aware of existing 74 HC4511 and I have used 74LS75... It had 42 ic's and 7805 which was extremely hot. And I remember that when I bring all these ic's home I've tested it exactly like you in this video it was in 1994. So you bring in my memories in this video... And guess what. I still have this instrument and it's still working... So thank You
+lechu lsk
Lots of memory lane trips in this video. Neat to read! Thanks for your comment!
Great explanation!!!
I love your videos! Could you do one on how a bread board works?
I subscribed because of this series, thanks.
+Bike Jake
Your welcome Jake!
Very nice demonstration.
+John Miner
Thanks John!
I'm not good in mathematics but certainly I'll be electronic engineer if you are my teacher. Wish I ever had you as my teacher .
you're explanations are precise and intuitive. Where do you teach?
When you touch the BCD pins with the 5V "high" - as well as lighting up the required decimal, surely this will also put a positive voltage on the ground through the 10k resistor? Does this matter? (didn't seem to!)
no. ohms law will tell you 5v/10k ohms = .5ma... 1/2 of a milliamp is nothing....
