Pure Breadboarded TTL Clock

June 20, 2011 by Chris

74xx TTL logic chips are widely available and cheap. Breadboards are built so that they fit perfectly , however the TTL clock created here shows you just how much can be done on them. This article shows you what it takes to create a TTL clock on breadboards with only jumper wire and TTL chips. Hardware schematics and demo videos are included.
