Can count up to 9,999 ~100ns~ intervals! (In decimal). Painfully Slow, but it definitely works!
HOW TO USE:
1. PROGRAM A VALUE:
The programable input is the 16 binary logic switches, arranged in 4 columns. Each column represents one decimal place value (either the ones, tens, hundreds, or thousands place) by using a 4-bit input. Top switches are LSB, while bottom logic switches are MSB. The programmed count value is shown on the blue 7-segment displays, while the live count value is shown in green. For example, the current value is set to 10 (binary input: 0000 0000 0001 0000), so the counter will reset at 10.
2. START THE COUNT:
Press the push-button on the left to start the count. Use the logic switch connected to the OR gates input below the push-button to manually reset the counter

*** Added a new Feature: ***
Now there’s an additional logic switch on the far right that allows you to toggle the reset function on/off. In the OFF position (0), it will simply stop on the programmed value and hold it, otherwise if ON (1), it will immediately reset to zero after reaching the programmed value.
1. If a Red LED is solid on (not pulsing) then the counter will reset, otherwise it will stop and hold.
2. While the reset function is disabled, you can even start the counter again to continue counting from where it last was and update the Program value to stop at a new higher count. (or reset; if you choose to enable while it’s counting before reaching the programmed value).
