Traffic light control circuit using IC CD4017
₹250.00
In StockA traffic light control circuit using IC CD4017 is a simple digital electronics project that mimics the working of a real traffic light system. It uses the CD4017 decade counter IC along with a timer (usually 555 IC) to sequentially switch Red, Yellow, and Green LEDs, simulating the flow of traffic signals.
Description
The CD4017 is a CMOS Decade Counter/Divider IC with 10 decoded outputs (Q0 to Q9). It is widely used in sequential control applications. When combined with a 555 timer IC (configured in astable mode), it forms the basis for a traffic light control system.
Here’s how the circuit works:
- The 555 timer generates a continuous clock pulse (square wave).
- These pulses are fed into the CD4017, which advances its output from Q0 to Q9 one by one with each clock pulse.
- By connecting Red, Yellow, and Green LEDs to specific outputs (like Q0, Q1, Q2), you can simulate a traffic light sequence.
- The timing of each light can be controlled by adjusting the resistor-capacitor (RC) values of the 555 timer.
The system repeats in a loop, much like actual traffic signals, but simplified for demonstration purposes.

An Automatic Room Cooling is an electronic system designed to maintain a comfortable room temperature automatically. It uses a DHT11 temperature sensor to monitor the room, a DC fan for cooling, an LCD to display real-time data, and a buzzer to provide alerts. The system activates the fan automatically when the room temperature exceeds a set threshold, making it an efficient solution for homes, laboratories, and small offices.

A heartbeat detector is an essential device for monitoring heart health, providing real-time data about a person’s pulse rate. Whether in a hospital, gym, or a DIY electronics project, it demonstrates how biomedical signals can be measured and processed using sensors and electronics. It’s a valuable tool for both personal health awareness and professional medical diagnostics.

A Bird Bell is a device designed to either attract, entertain, or repel birds, depending on its purpose and context. Traditionally, it is a small bell-shaped object made of metal, ceramic, or wood, and is usually hung in gardens, balconies, farms, or near bird feeders. Its name comes from its interaction with birds — it may ring when birds land on it, brush past it, or when the wind causes it to move.
