Hi everybody.
I am new here and I am learning to make lunettas.
When I looked around this forum I found a lot of cool stuff.
This is my first good working lunetta and I would like to know if you like it.
it is very basic and I only used 2 chips ( one CD40106 and one CD4040)
but I am very happy whit it please let me know what you think about it and maybe give me some tips?

Welcome aboard mako!

Cool things that deserve a place in your lunetta: oscillators (of course), shift registers like the 4094 or the 4015, the 4040 to divide the hell out of the clock source, the 4070 XOR, and r/2r ladder and the YAVCO. Ultimately, grab as many cmos chips ya like, and run the ins/outs to front panels or whatever containment you prefer and keep experimenting.

Keep us updated Smile .

Hi Mako - Great to have you here.
Nice start - have you tried a voltage starve pot yet? Keep breadboarding and sharing what you find!

Starve pot reduces the current/voltage going into your unit
making it behave in strange and wonderful ways.
It's basically starving your unit of electricity.

Much different from a volume control.
