Binary Clock Gallery

The photos below have been sent to me via email from other binary clock builders. If you've built this project too, why not email me a photo for the gallery! Please click the photos to view full size versions.

Bulent Uysaler also provided a nice PCB layout. I have .DXF and .PCB files available if you need them, Click here to download them. Bulent even sent me a short video of the clock in operation!


Derek Tombrello. See also his alternative 1Hz circuit.


Jacob Toft Pedersen, Denmark


Oscar García, José Luis Solís, Armando Rodríguez, students of the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering college in Monterrey, Mexico. This is the final year project of their course.

Ivo Naumovski from Macedonia says: "some time ago surfing I've come across your binary clock and immediately know I have to build this, because it's so cool. So I did build it using Bulent Uysaler PCB layout and it works excelent. thanks for the schematic!"


Göblyös János from Hungary, uses a microcontroller instead of discrete logic.

Didier Salembier, Belgium built this true-binary clock which is described as an Open Source project. He writes:

"This binary clock gives you the exact hour in full-binary (no BCD!) and is driven by a 1MHz-oscillator. The hardware is very simple: only one MAX7000s (programmable logics) programmed with Quartus (free to use with weblicense). The source-code to upload into the EPM7064SLC44 (a /10-version is more then fast enough!) can be found on the website you see on top of this email and the hardware itself is just the basic hardware: connect the supply, the LEDs, the switches and the oscillator and enjoy your binary clock :-)

"On the same website you will also see the previous releases and the problems I encountered. You will also see I'm planning to make a brand new binary clock with an AVR instead of a MAX7000s, using DCF77 or the internet to adjust the clock.

"I've demolished an old alarm clock, I use the snooze-button to set the hour and I use the battery-place to upload new firmware into the clock. The D's and the C are not in use anymore (that was just a try-out)".
