I've got some 4026's counting and displaying the count on 7 segment displays, all working fine.
But what I want to do is display the frequency, not the count.
The 4026 has facility to blank the display, reset, and stop/start clock.
I can't seem to get my head round how to do it because the stop clock function seems to blank the display.
I've got a 555 timer connected to a 4027 flipflop, set to give 1 second high, 1 second low.
Any advice appreciated.
