Hi All,
I am doing this project where I want to implement a start stop timer. I want to use one start and one stop button (or a single button for both) and interface them with 555 timer. The 555 timer I would like to configure for one second. The output I would like to display on the 3 seven segment displays (up to 3 digits 0,1,...999 etc). So, once I press the start button the 555 timer will start counting the seconds and display the same as 1,2 etc upto 999 on the seven segment displays, andd stop once the stop button is pressed and hold the value. Could somebody please guide me how to do this? I don't want to use microcontroller. I know how to configure the 555 timer for 1 sec but remaining part is little bit confusing for me.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Satya
