  Freeze the Dizz  |  Jameco Part No. 2161431

  

 This project is based on a childre

n‟s a

rcade game. Twenty LEDs are placed on a ring 

and each takes turn to light up forming a rotating light spot. If a push-button switch is 

pressed, the light spot freezes. If the light spot happens to land on the winning position, 

a buzzer is triggered. The rotating speed is adjustable by a speed dial.

You can learn 

basic building blocks of electronics circuit such as flip-flop (CD4013), 

counter (CD 4017), one-shot and 555 oscillator with this project. You can see how they 

are put together to achieve the circuit operations desired

. You will test each individual parts 

of the circuit to understand the roles of each IC and major components.
