Arduino VS Common IC (Without Programming) Creating Arduino equivalent circuit David: I think this is an example of bad software. Here cost of software will likely be beat by hardware in volume. There is also a few areas you could have saved money and wiring. Software is always a little slower here due to the serial nature. Software generally is used for glue/configuration/control and protocol logic (that likely will change, so upper layers. Expect now software is being thrown at everything somehow. Hardware tests: Is this highly repeatable? Can this be done in parallel? Is this basically a library that I can reuse later on?
This is where AI, automation, embedded systems, real time, Cloud, IoT, etc. are all screwing up. Hence why they have so much memory issues, which is a glorified capacitor/filter. It is also why most of the computation ends up being IO, which software sucks at. Lot of ways to play with a capacitor, and a lot of people play around with it in software indirectly/inefficiently. Most of the arguments for processors/software is capacitors. However a lot of people forget the property of MOSFET power consumption in terms of computation power. It is a dated point of view based on production costs and transistor counts.
Most people mess up this question: What is the difference between hardware and software? Or even: What is software? The first question the answer is technically nothing except cost, power consumption, and area. Except it depends on complexity and task. The next one is where you get to dig into this question and see who is who. Note charge is technically wrong, but close enough for most people. Turing BS is completely wrong on all levels. It would have probably been close enough about 30 years ago.
Computer Science likes to use locality and data structures to solve problems. Which is just a down right joke. Technically the its just software and let the tool do its thing is valid just not currently. Context and consequences they get you into trouble every time.

Thanks to arduino for overpricing their boards.
In out country, only rich people can buy this overpriced board.
Even the the arduino pro mini costs for 7 but with additional 1 which makes it pricey. Btw the price of the smallest arduino possible in our country is 100-200 Pesos which equal to 2 to 4 and with 1 shipping equals to 250 pesos. So no arduino for me unless if i was rich with the youtube money: )

I don't think people should be complaining about how much more complicated this is than the Arduino circuit, unless for some reason you are planning to mass produce these things. I think a huge point of the world of being a maker is learning, and doing a complicated circuit like this, while much more difficult, is also much more rewarding in terms of your knowledge and skills. At least for me, I believe that.

I'm old school, I am sure you could do that with just four transistors. Simply have a two transistor monostable fire the first coil and an optical sensor fire a second monostable. Heck l think I could do away with the optical sensor and fire the second monostable directly from the first.
ICs used to be expensive and us kids would take apart old TV's, record players and radios just for the bits.

Great video: )
I do love designing an old-skool logic circuit - when done right there is a certain elegance to them, and they are easier to analyse if you're trying to reverse-engineer a circuit.
But arduinos really do make designing sooooo much easier.
If I need the speed I'll take the time and make the logic circuit, but these days I'm most likely to use a combination of both: )

I would prefer to use an FPGA than buying that amount of ICs. Imaging if you had to update the design for improving. Is better Arduino, or an FPGA (something you can reprogram)
reply

If you buy bigger amounts of logic ics, they get pretty cheap. I would have to make some calculations to determine if buying loads of arduimos isn't still cheaper

Did the people who complained about arduino realize you can download code and buy an arduino for 2-4 usd
This is litterally manualy coding something

reply

The size comparison is unfair because all of the arduino is in SMD where all the ic's are through hole. If all the ic's were SMD it would of fit on the board.
reply

I wonder if there is any way to use old ICs and still make it more practical, like maybe and old eeprom and some counters or something like that.
