hello
i would really like to make a nice a big alarm clock that display the
the hour (2 digits), the minutes (2 digits), the year (4 digits), the day (2 digits), the month (3 letters).
so this is 13, 7 standard segments leds.
would also be nice if the ic would have the proper amount of days in the month...
Is there a single, or few ic that would do the job?
what would be the best way to do this?
I've been searching for ic's for a while, or even other projects like this but i couldn't find much.
I did find some ics, like the idt1339, but actually my electronic level is too low to be able to interpret the datasheet in order to be sure it would meet the requirement for this project.
I can also do some picaxe, not much but if the project require some microcontrollers, this might be a good opportunity for me to improve my skills with them.
if you have any idea, please help me out!
thank you very much
