Hey
First off, I want to say I'm very new to electronics. I've taken a year long course at school so I do understand most of the terminology, but actually building circuits is a bit complicated for my level right now.
So I thought I'd start with something "relatively" simple, a circuit which generates a 1 Hz frequency using quartz crystal. I'm finding it hard to understand frequency division, particularly on which IC I should use.
The quartz crystal I have has a frequency of 32768 Hz / 32.768 kHz
Can anyone give me some details on available IC's and/or links to any good tutorials?
Thank you
