looking for help with seven segment LEDs.

[acdc2]

alright, so my problem is that I have an output from a designed circuit, it is a 7 bit binary number (it will always be between 0 and 128) what i would like to do, is take this output and display it on three seven seg LEDs, do i need to convert to BCD first, what chips will i need for this? and how exactly do I go about implementing it?

anyone at all?

Normally you convert the binary to BCD which then is used to drive the display. The solution with the least number of chips is to use a microprocessor, but if you want to use logic chips see https://www.electro-tech-online.com/threads/8-bit-binry-to-decimal-circuit.95009/.
