Troubleshooting a 7-Segment Counter Circuit in Multisim 8

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around troubleshooting a 7-segment counter circuit in Multisim 8, where the issue is that numbers disappear before displaying new ones and show the previous number during transitions. Participants express difficulty in accessing shared ZIP files and request alternative formats like JPG or GIF for clarity. There is also a question regarding whether the counter design is fully synchronous, which could impact the display behavior. One user mentions they have deleted their old circuit file, complicating the sharing of resources. The conversation highlights common challenges in circuit simulation and file sharing in technical discussions.

This is a counter circuit done in multisim 8 the digits appear on a 7-segment the circuit is working but i can't figure out why each number disappear in the 7-segment before showing the new one and why on each transition the 7-segment shows the prior number of the number being displayed.
PS
please rename the file 7-seg_2.zip to 7-seg.z01

I was a little reluctant to open your ZIP files. Can you post a JPG or GIF instead. Also, is your counter design fully synchronous?

hi!
have u always had the pic of a 7 segment display on Multisim?
can u post it to me pls?
Also, if you have the multisim file it would be gr8te, as i can't open the other zip file even if i rename it.
thank you in advance

Do you mean pic as in programmable IC or as in picture ?
I'm very sorry but that was an old circuit so I deleted the file.
 
thnx
 

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...

Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'

Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
