End result will be a 4 digit counter that increments every time input goes high.
What I need in my mind is a units BCD counter, a tens BCD counter, a hundreds BCD counter and a thousands BCD counter. I then need a multiplexer system that sends that information to a BCD decoder/drive for a 7 segment display, then 4 x 7 segment displays hooked up to another multiplexer.
First question, will this actually do what I want it to do? As a contrast to other posters, I would rather you didn't post completed circuits, I want to discover this for myself, however I would appreciate it if you shot my idea down in flames because of some gaping hole.
Thank you in advance.
