Project Help and Ideas » Need help making a traffic light circuit
May 15, 2010 by wakebaby1 |
I am working on a making a traffic light with a GAL chip. I have my GAL chip all programmed but I am unsure what to do next? I know I will need some LEDs and probably a 555 timer as well as some resistors. Can anyone help me figure out what I will need and how I will hook it all together ? Thanks |

Hi wakebaby1, I've never actually worked with a GAL chip, and I doubt too many people on our forums have either. If there are any out there they should jump in here. I suppose my first question is why you want to use a GAL chip for this. With your microcontroller alone (and a little fun C code) you can program the logic required to run a traffic light controller. Are you doing this for a project that requires you use a programmable gate array? Humberto |

Did you know that microcontrollers have two different kinds of memory, program space (flash) and SRAM? Learn more...
