How can be synced an ICL7660 operating between gnd and +10V by a clock swinging between gnd and +5V ?

How much should be the minimum amplitude of the clock applying to the OSC input? Swinging from where to where?

I'm confused!:confused: Please clarify!

Thanks in advance
Stryker.

See page 6, 1st paragraph, 2nd sentence.

Instead of a TTL IC, you could use a simple NPN transistor with a 3k base resistor and a 10k resistor from the collector to Vcc (+10v). Feed your existing clock to the other side of the 3k resistor.
