Description

Pull Down Lever For Highest Score!

This Elektor Circuit Classic from 1984 shows a playful application of CMOS 400x series logic ICs in combination with LEDs, a highly popular combination at the time. The project imitates a spinning-digit type slot machine.

The Game

To play the game, first agree on the number of rounds. Player 1 actuates the switch lever as long as desired and releases it. The LEDs then show the score which is the sum of the 50-20-10-5 digits lit up. If the Play Again! LED lights, Player 1 has another, “free” round. If not, it’s Player 2’s turn. The players keep tab of their scores, and the highest score wins.

    Der Bausatz kann gut als Lehrbausatz für Logikschaltungen fungieren und als Einstieg in die TTL-Welt dienen. Zumal ein wichtiger Baustein, das NAND-Gatter in verschiedenen Anwendungen eingesetzt wird.

    Ein schöner Bausatz!

    Zuerst habe ich mich gewundert, dass keine Anleitung dabei ist. Aber dann habe ich die Beschreibung auf der Rückseite gefunden, eine geniale Idee. Alle nötigen Bauteile sind mit dabei, sodass man gleich loslegen kann. Besonders ist der Kippschalter mit langem Hebel, der nicht einrastet, sondern immer wieder nach oben zurückfedert. Eine ideale Nachbildung des einarmigen Banditen. Weil durchgehend bedrahtete Bauteile zum Einsatz kommen, schafft jeder den Aufbau.
