Electronic Door Lock by Danny Howcroft

I have recently finished my A levels (one of which in electronics) and I thought I may share with you my As project. This is an ideal project for students or just for beginners to the world of electronics. Obviously all parts can be bought from Technobots.
I got a grade A with this circuit although I am not promising this will get anybody else the same grade!!! and do not use this to protect your property I am not liable!!!
Digital Door Lock:
This project introduces basic CMOS Logic and even soldering (If your feeling Brave).

Parts List:
- Bread Board or strip board ( I suggest you try this first on bread board then transfer to strip board)
- 4 x Tactile Switches
- 4 x 1 Kohm Resistors
- 1 LED or Relay (its up to you)
- 5 volt battery pack
- 4017 decade counter
- 4071 AND
- 4072 Quad input OR
- Wire
Tools:
- Wire strippers / cutters
- pliers
- Soldering iron and solder


Final Notes:
Where I have used the LED feel free to changes this to a relay or even a shoot bolt to suit any purpose. But remember when using a relay always use a protection diode!
