Hi,
I feel like this is a very simple question, and I'm overlooking something very basic, but I can't figure out how to do it.
I want to take an 8-bit number (output from some logic circuits) and display is on a seven segment display. There is lots of information available on the web about converting a 4-bit number to BCD and then displaying it on a single 7-segment display, but I can't find anything on how to display a number between 0 and 255 on 3 displays.
I'd be really grateful if someone could enlighten me, or point me in the direction of some good reading.
With very, very many thanks,
Froskoy.
EDIT: I'd rather not use a microcontroller, unless there is no other option, as I have very limited experience in this area. However, I am always up for learning about new things.
