Vcc at 5V and 0V go to pins 14 and 7 respectively - but you knew that - just wanted to be careful.Ive redrawn your circuit, to make it clear (for me).
This is not actually simulating anything, I use it just for drawing (and clarifying).
I think I get you now, thank you for it !!!

+7V(Max) Vcc to pin4 and gnd to pin 11.Vcc at 5V and 0V go to pins 14 and 7 respectively - but you knew that - just wanted to be careful.
Nice to see proper resistor symbols have fund their way into this thread!
It was to make it easier for pen plotters in the early days of CAD drawings I believe. Now it is slightly irrelevant.a meaningless rectangular box was foisted upon us by some committee or other.
You are right and I am right! I was talking about the 14 pin dual in line pin layout which is the type I use and have sent you.+7V(Max) Vcc to pin4 and gnd to pin 11.
I don't know anything, I just look up in the datasheet.
(Sometimes) my biggest mistake is to presume, and I still have to learn to not doing it that often myself.

I tried a quick SPICE simulation and (a) it did not work properly (toggled only first time) and (b) even then you are looking at switching times of around 10us, placing the max speed at below 50kHz even if it had worked as hoped!I could make it myself but I have to make a couple of them, to really bring down the fv to my devices level that I have here. And I probably will, because it will most probably be too much for you. Will it?
Im curious if they will raise to the task, until the actual fv counter arrives. See? Small shht like this I am not allow to repair in my previous postings because this website is made against user !Im curious if they will raise the the task, until the actual fv counter arrives. ???
And I did enjoy it. I do like MCU's, and I only worked with PIC's so far, and very limited range and very few applications I used them. I didn't go nuts with them as I wished when I discovered them in my youth. But they remain a fascinating literature for me. So the RC problem in CPU's, conform to your article, is due to the micro-wiring length and thickness, remaining constant over time while the transistors got smaller. If I understood it correctly. Very interesting. Yes. Actually mister @pc1966 spotted that RC problem in the last FF (flipflop) circuit and I concluded on his finding.q12x : Since you mentioned the problems caused by resistance and capacitance in integrated circuits operating at high frequencies or switching speeds I thought you might enjoy reading this article: In processors and graphics cards, what limits your clock speed? - https://techunwrapped.com/in-processors-and-graphics-cards-what-limits-your-clock-speed/
I admit, I didnt got this interested like you did about the internals of a CPU. Very nice explanation ! I like it. As a fact, everyone got amused when coming into my room and seeing my desktop PC case with one side open all the time and an external black fan blowing into it (actually towards my 2HDD), and they asked me "is it broken?" and I respond, "no, it is properly cooled". I got into this arrangement from my very first computers and it stay with me until today. I also highly recommend it. The downside it is getting dusty, quite quickly, so 1/year I do a total cleanup, I take out the processor, re-paste it, clean everything from dust, especially its heat sink radiator, that usually develops a fur on it, like a little rat.Another limit is temperature rise of the ic. Because many yet small capacitors are being charged and discharged very frequently/at a high rate - Giga Hertz in some devices - there is a significant heating effect caused by the many but small currents moving the electrons in and out of the capacitors. You know that when a current flows through resistance there is heating which causes ics like processors to warm up. So they are fitted with heat sinks and fan blows across them otherwise they would overheat and burn out. Thus, keeping the ventilation holes of your computer unobstructed is a good idea. (In the computers I worked on in the 80s with many microprocessors the air was cooled first by passing over fins cooled by chilled water at 5C.)
Thank you for trying that. I am not that good in LT Spice. I have it on my pc but i cant say im good in it. Only to a point and that is a very low point.I tried a quick SPICE simulation and (a) it did not work properly (toggled only first time) and (b) even then you are looking at switching times of around 10us, placing the max speed at below 50kHz even if it had worked as hoped!
Ahaa, an experiment, very interesting result !Here is a 74HCT73 dual jk flip flop in cascaded toggle mode with first ff being clocked at 20MHz and scope showing 2Q output of second ff. thus divide by 4 to five 5MHz I do not have any HCT93s to hand.
Simulations are useful but ultimately not always understood by those doing them. Generally speaking:Thank you for trying that. I am not that good in LT Spice. I have it on my pc but i cant say im good in it. Only to a point and that is a very low point.
to @marconi : very cool ! I like it. And thank you. But you are still limited by the maximum IC fv. Higher than its maximum and you are in the same situation as I am. Btw, what is he maximum fv it can see this 74LS93 ? Actually I will check it as well.q12x Attached are two short clips. The first shows a divide by 10 counter with a 20 MHz input and 2 MHz output using a 74LS93 .. The second clip ..total division by 40 thus 20MHz down to 500kHz...
You are always limited by the IC's max frequency!But you are still limited by the maximum IC fv. Higher than its maximum and you are in the same situation as I am.

What a strange project. I really didnt want to spent even 2h on it, and it turn out to spent 2 months, haha. Strange, right?
The only difference is temperature range (and use of ceramic packaing to achieve that). The 54xx series has the full -55C to +125C military range where as the 74xx series is 0C to 70C commercial rangeThis particular SN5400 datasheet is mentioning, very confusingly I may add, the SN74LS00 in it's corner title.
That is the 'SO' surface mount package (confusingly saying 18 pin but clearly only 14!), your schematic was showing the DIP package pin out.View attachment 98015
So this is my concluded correction.
No decoupling capacitor!This morning I received mister @marconi package.
And I quickly built up this circuit:
View attachment 98017 View attachment 98018 View attachment 98020
and I got this result/reading:
View attachment 98021
I used the exact values in the circuit, 20MHz osc, 100pF cap and mister @marconi 's 74LS00 IC.
