Hello guys,
I present you my Binary to BCD converter. It's a really compat solution for converting a binary number in BCD. Then you can easily show the number with 7 segments displays.
Features :
- SS, Solid State, that mean there is no piston in it (increse a lot the stability)
- Relatively slow (1 bit converting speed : 1,25 Hz, = 1 bit each 0,8 second)
- Extendable at infinity
- Easy to use
The version in the schematic file includes the BCD to 7 Segments decoders (designed by kothar) and the 7 segments...
Progress | 100% complete |

I think I'm a bit late for giving an answer ... Usually I respond in 1-2 day ...
So I will give you a short answer : Today we use microcontroller. They are really cheap and with smaller size package than common 74xxx ! The best way is to create a programm that convert a binary input to a bcd output. The easiest way is to create a look-up table with all conversion stored. And I think, in this case, it is really faster and smaller than programing a specific algorithm to compute the result !
If you are not familiar with microcontroller, you can begin with an Arduino.
