The only fault you have.... Is NONE! Now I know which of three pins are doing what I've been playing around with these shift registers. But I never ever knew which pin was which out of those three. I am new to these, that is why I didn't know which one of them did what. I use a Raspberry Pi 4, and that's how I've been learning but I'm only almost three years in. That's it as far as electronics creating goes. I'm almost sixty and I'm doing electronics on breadboards and I didn't honestly think I had the mindset for it. But it's turning out, I did and I didn't ever know I would know a bit of electronics all on my own creations from watching videos like your to do with whatever I want to learn. Great video. 👍👍👍
I finally had time to come back to this project and I want to thank you! It works!!! It's really awesome. Now that I can make it work with push button, I can try with my Raspberry Pi. Thank you again for this great tutorial.
This is a great Video. Had done quite a few experiments on Shift Register, but only now I understood the basics of Shift Register. Long live and God bless you
This is actually really great, really useful. I don't normally comment on RU-vid videos, but your video has actually cleared up a question I had regarding RCLK (pin 12), that neither the Texas Instruments nor Nexperia/Mouser datasheets for the 74HC595 could explain clearly enough.
I really really enjoy this tutorial! I am actually following the steps to reproduce it. The only thing I am not clear on is the SPST switch. I am not sure how the connection is working from pin 14 and the 5V rail connection. They are side by side and I am a bit mixed up. Awesome tutorial!
How did you make it so stable? I did the same circuit - and got a lot of noise even powering from a battery. I.e. no result when pressing ether button - but then suddenly a few LEDs illuminated by a single press or even just me touching button contacts. I do have pull-down resistors for all the buttons.
