ABSTRACT:
This digital dice project is an interesting project that will
display in random the number from 1 to 9 on the 7 segment
display. This is an alternative device that can be used to
replace the traditional dice when you are playing games such
as snake ladder and monopoly.

INTRODUCTION:
The Goal of this project was to create a digital dice
that randomly rolls a number from 1-6. A button is
held to begin the roll, and then, after the button is
released, the die slows down and finally stops on a
single number. The clock was constructed from a 555
timer with resistors and capacitors of the right size to get
the correct frequencies for the project. A set of logic
gates is sent from the outputs to the counters reset to
restrict the count to 1 to 6. The binary output of the
counter is then fed into another set of logic gates that
interprets the signals and sends them to the
corresponding seven segment used in the display. The
end result is a digital die that rolls and displays a number
from one to six.

HARDWARE DESIGN
Details of the different components are given below:

IC: 74HC04N
General description:
The MM74HC04 inverters utilize advanced silicon-gate
CMOS technology to achieve operating speeds similar to
LS-TTL gates with the low power consumption of
standard CMOS integrated circuits. The MM74HC04 is
a triple buffered inverter. It has high noise immunity and
the ability to drive 10 LS-TTL loads. The 74HC logic
family is functionally as well as pin-out compatible with
the standard 74LS logic family. All inputs are protected

COST:
We used two ICs at first time and in the second time we tried 3 different circuits but they were not showing the
required results.
Finally we made it and the cost on this project was round about 800/Rs.
