### circuit diagram
**time spend:** 15 min
**what i did:** so i def needed 2 things, buttons to click and change who's turn it is and second i need a display to show how much time each person has, and then i also need a chip to manage it all! so i opened easyEDA then i opened the library, filtered for each type and added the first and added them! then i used simple logic and connected the wires.
**images:** ![my circuit diagram](https://hc-cdn.hel1.your-objectstorage.com/s/v3/5bddc22bf6116f6ae2bc093ed7d6ff0133d386d8_image.png)
### routing pcb
**time spend:** 25 min
**what i did:** then i covered it into a PCB then i placed i put the parts where i wanted it to be, in the first attempt i put 3 wires traces in the bottom layer but then i realized that i don't even need a bottom layer and its possible to put it all in one layer so i spend some more time moving it in to 1 layer!
