10 Channel Wi-Fi Switch for Smart Home
Posted on: 14 Jun 2021
This device can help you automate your home, backyard, or whatever you want. Step 1: Gather the Components To build this device, you’ll need: ESP8266 x1; 4-stage ripple (binary) counter (I can suggest SN74LS93N) x1; 14-stage ripple counter (CD4020BE is the best choice) x1; Latches (SN74LS75) x6. Since each SN74LS75 consists of 4 latches, only […]
