Newbie Question
My father would like me to build a circuit for him to power some Christmas lights and have them turn on/off in a particular sequence. I think I understand the basics of the counting logic I need and how to acheive that with gates and relays, but in my Computer Architecture class they always had us design circuits with the assumption that there would be some sort of a clock device that would initiate each step of the procedure with a clock tick. What device is used for this outside of the computer world, what is it called, what should I expect to pay for it, and where should I look?
Thanks in advance for any help. :wink:
