The One Button Bandit is better known in Las Vegas
as the One Arm Bandit. Our device has no arms,
but instead a button. Therefore, we call it the One
Button Bandit.

The One Button Bandit is a simplified version of an
electronic slot machine. It contains three columns of

five light emitting diodes (LED). When the switch S2
is pressed, the LEDs will flash on and off
accompanied by sound.

When the bandit stops,

only one LED in each column will remain lit. If three
green LEDs light up, you win the jackpot
accompanied by sound.

IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES

Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or

m

F (microfarads).

Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on them. Some capacitors may have their value printed in
the following manner.

INTRODUCTION

THEORY OF OPERATION

Figure 1 shows the block diagram of the One Button
Bandit.

This block diagram consists of three

identical circuits: (the basic has a timer, a decade
counter, and five LEDs), the Clock Oscillator, the
Sound Circuit and the Key of Ring.
