Found some time at the weekend to wire up the 74HC161 making sure I carefully followed the instructions from TonyDuell and Radio Wrangler above.
As usual working hard to avoid a
"painting by numbers" approach to ensure that I understand how components work and which connections to make before deploying anything!
Unfortunately the output from Pin 15 (TC - Terminal Count Output) of the 74HC161 is fluctuating wildly when connected to my Topward Digital Function Generator 8112.
Not sure where I've gone wrong but there are connections to almost every pin of the 74HC161 - maybe too many wires for a Breadboard prototype??
