Hello,
I have a project nearly completed, but I am stuck...
I have 8 sets of four binary output pins (8 hex characters) which I want to be displayed on an 8 character Hex display (7 segment LEDs)
I know how to convert 1 set of four binary into 1 hex character using a decoder chip- but how do I get all 8 to display?
The ideal solution would be individual 7 segment Led's with an integrated decoder (4 binary inputs)- but I cant find any?
I have limited space on the PCB so the fewer components the better.
I would be greatful for any advice- its driving me mad.
Thanks in advance for your time.
