hey, what do you guys prefer to use CMOS (4017,4006 etc) or TTL (7490,74153 etc)
What is better, I prefer CMOS, dunno why...

TTL will typically drive more than the 10 - 15 mA that a CMOS chip will. However if you run your CMOS at 12v instead of 5 you can get almost the same amount of power out.

Well, in school we were learnig about latches and flipflops and we made circuits we were usind TTL, 7490. Hardly anyone got them to work, they required 5.25V exactly, and most of the power supplies didnt have the dials 'tuned'.. gave us a whole lot of troube..
keep in mind that it was a gr 10 class

But is a lot more delicate.

Well, CMOS uses a lot less power than TTL, and it is more forgiving of variablilty in input voltage.
