Information








A counter uses flip-flops to “remember” the last count until the clock pulse occurs.
A shift register can store several events in series depending on the length of the register.
A shift register such as a Johnson counter, can be set with a characteristic sequence like a counter and can be used in applications requiring a counter. This experiment requires two count sequences.
Either can be completed first. The one completed first must clear both clear both counters.
The counters are “clocked” manually by pushbuttons. 555 Timers

Design






The logic function of the circuit can be designed by using a simple D flip flop counter.
The logic function may also be created by:
1. Creating a state diagram of binary counts
2. Using a transition table, populate present and next state tables
The lab calls for a 74175 IC chip to be used as the counting device. Since we will be counting two separate counts, one for strikes and one for balls,
TWO 74175 IC chips will be used.

    Did you know Babe Ruth wore a cabbage leaf under his hat to keep him cool? Did you know the odds of a fan getting hit by a baseball are 300,000 to 1? And did u know the shortest baseball player that ever played was recorded to be 3 feet and 7 inches? These are interesting facts I stumbled upon research, but I bet most of you did not know. There are many interesting facts that people like you and I don’t know about baseball throughout its history. Have you ever asked yourself where did baseball come from, who created it, or even ask what baseball went through in the past to receive its highly respected title? We watch baseball games for the sake of enjoyment like every other sport but most people, like myself, don’t know how it all began. For the past week I researched various websites about the history of baseball and found interesting facts about how baseball was created, what baseball itself has gone through up until today’s date to earn the title of “The American past time”, and how special its Hall of Fame really is.…

    "The game of baseball has now become beyond question the leading feature of the outdoor sports of the United States...It is a game which is peculiarly suited to the American temperament and disposition:... in short, the pastime suits the people, and the people suit the pastime"(Charles Peverelly, 1866). Although baseball is still America's favorite pastime, the way it is played has changed greatly since it's founding in the 1800's. Baseball was originally created so there would be something the boys could do to keep busy during the summer months. Now, baseball has changed greatly because of technological and technique advancements, rule alterations, and the commercialization of the game.…

    After several decades and countless games, people tired of the slow, grind it out pace that baseball had to offer. As the technological boom continued to explode across the map in the early 1990s, the pace of life on our planet was speeding up by the day. Information was readily accessible at our fingertips, people could be reached on the go via cellphone, the list goes on. As people began to experience a greater deal of excitement, baseball did not change with the times. The strike shortened season of 1994, which saw the World Series and approximately 50 regular season games get cancelled, was seemingly the nail in baseball’s popularity coffin. People were fed up, and they wanted their game back. When play resumed in the spring of 1995, people did not care for the results. Since the last full season in 1994, ticket prices had dropped by 13 percent league wide to accommodate for the drop in attendance, which remained at a 9% decrease even after the price reduction (ESPN). However, things took a turn in 1996.…

    It’s the 1940’s; 1944 to be exact. You’ve been drifting in and out of a variety of camps, struggling to stay as alive and hopeful as possible. The days and nights are starting to blend together into a gray smudge, and your will to live is beginning to dissipate. This was the constant struggle of the Jewish people during the second World War. Every waking moment was spent in constant fear and misery, Now, does that compare to being taken from your home and having to pursue your own entertainment? Two children, Elie and Shorty, survived these trials and lived to tell the tale. In “Night”, by Elie Wiesel, and “Baseball Saved Us”, by Ken Mochizuki, both of the main characters experienced things that changed the way they viewed a variety of subjects.…

    Baseball game feedback

    • 402 Words

    After the final presentation over, I look back the 2 weeks about this experience and I do learn a lot. Every one of us knows more about the teamwork, the business, the baseball game, the American culture and the bond among them. I believe everyone enjoy their teamwork about this, especially our team members, because only our team did not have any native speakers and none of us knew about baseball very well. We saw the game, we looked around the stadium, we searched information from the official website of Valley cats and we asked the questions to the baseball game manager. All we want to do is to make a good project that can really help the Valley cats increasing revenue, decreasing cost and prove ourselves: we can do as well as other teams do and even better! The most important thing is that from this experience we learn how to solve problems and how to corporate with international students. Our team is great and every member of our team has great ideas and is full of passion but at first, honestly, we did not communicate very well, each member had their own business and language was also a big problem. This is first time for me to go to another country. Listening to native speaker talking and understanding them are big challenges for me, not to mention India accent. Fortunately after having a big discussion with Thomas Triscari and communicating with each other positively and doing a lot of brainstorms, we found our way that we really did think some great ideas and we did accept each member’s habits and I could hear Indian speaking clearly. Besides, there is an advice from me for this program that if we can learn something about baseball rules and knowledge before the orientation, especially for the international students, we can do better. Of course, I will 100% recommend this program for next year’s MBA students. First reason, I like the part of whole program that watching baseball game best. You know when the…
