No, that is not going to work. That is a voltage follower, and the output will be no higher than the input. What you want is an inverter, which would have a resistor (say 10K) between the collector and V+, emitter to ground, and base to the 2 Hz signal via another resistor (100K). The output is taken from the collector.I tried using a transistor as a switch to raise the voltage but that did not work. More unes inputs are tied to GND.
When using the transitor and attaching a LED to its output it even les detectable then without the transitor which doesn't make sense. C is tied to VDD E goes to the 4513 and B comes from the 2 Hz signal. Is this right?
I don't know why it does not work.
