Fastest Finger First Indicator Circuit Project
Fastest Finger First Indicator Circuit Diagram . Quiz-type game shows are increasingly becoming popular on tale vision these days. In such games, fastest finger first indicators (FFFIs) are used to test the player’s reaction time. The player’s designated number is dis played with an audio alarm when the player presses his entry button. The circuit presented here determines as to which of the four contestants first pressed the button and locks out the remaining three entries. Simultaneously, an audio alarm and the correct decimal number display of the corresponding contestant are activated. Fastest Finger First Indicator Circuit Diagram When a contestant presses his switch, the corresponding output of latch IC2 (7475) changes its logic state from 1 to 0. The combinational circuitry comprising dual 4-input NAND gates of IC3 (7420) locks out subsequent entries by producing the appropriate latch-disable signal. Priority encoder IC4 (74147) encodes the active-low input conditio...
