Hey everyone, this is probably a really simple circuit for most people on here but for some reason I have a mental block or my preventing me from coming up with it.
I am trying to build a device for playing games that has two push buttons and at least 2 LEDs that are controlled each by a button. I was trying to use one or two SR flip flops(still in the early stages of designing this, and my knowledge is limited).
I want the first button pushed to latch the circuit and keep ONLY the corresponding LED lit so we can see who rang in first.
How can I prevent the other LED from lighting after that button is pushed? I am not concerned about any other aspect of the circuit right now besides only allowing one LED to be lit and basically making the other push button useless after the first one is pushed.
I think I am significantly over complicating this. I have thought about everything from relays to capacitors to comparators and it is overwhelming and driving me crazy! Thanks in advance!
