Lcds are easer to interface to, but, 7 Seg LEDs are larger and brighter.

For 7 Seg LEDs I use a MC4511, the chip recieves a bcd code, it latches it into memory, and displays. So there is no need to send it over and over to the display.

I have a counter that uses them, and they work great.

What controler are you going to use?
Interfaces?

Do you have a source for these. The major suppliers are no longer stocking many of the 7 seg parts.

The part can not be found at Digikey, Mouser, or Newark. A lot of the LED 7 segment parts are going out of production.
