Troubleshooting a Circuit in TINA Software: Help Needed!

AI Thread Summary
The "Dancing Light" circuit in TINA software is designed to sequentially flash LEDs, with a potentiometer to adjust the flashing speed. It utilizes a 555 Timer to generate clock pulses for the CD4017 decade counter, which controls the LED sequence. Users are seeking assistance to troubleshoot the circuit, as it is currently non-functional. Providing details on the intended operation of the circuit and the expected performance of its major components would be beneficial for effective troubleshooting. Clarifying these aspects may help identify the issues preventing the circuit from working.

A description of what the circuit is intended to do as well as how the major sub-assemblies are expected to perform would be helpful.

The circuit is intended to perform flashing LEDs one at a time. One LED will glow then next will glow and so on. the potentiometer is used to vary the speed of flashing of LEDs.. The 555 Timer is being used to feed the clock pulse to the decade counter CD4017...
 

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

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 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
