It's already been a year since I first learned the concept of counters.
This is a device which stores (and sometimes displays) the number of times a particular event or process has occurred, often in relationship to a clock signal. See Counters.
In the schematic shown, a 74190 U/D Decade Counter IC is used to generate pulses from 0000 to 1001 (to be converted as 0 to 9) with the clock of frequency 1Hz then a 7447 Decoder IC is used to drive the seven segment (Common Anode) display.

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.
