5. Given: Acrumbling empire. Find: Project Design Brief: Write a brief project proposal for a digital circuit of your choosing. Select a circuit in which you are interested and that uses the concepts and components used in this course sequence. Limit the length of the proposal to between a quarter of a page and half a page. Solution: | want to use this clock display component to create a digital clock. | guessing this amounts to a state machine with as many state as there are minutes in the day(1440). This seems like a lot, but | think it could be done easily enough with 4-bit counter ICs and the necessary logic for counting and running the display. I’m guessing by the pinout of the display it must be driven fast enough to take advantage of our slow eyes by quickly flashing between the necessary segments so fast we see an illuminated clock. Maybe | can use a single clock that is fast enough to achieve this but then divide it into something | can use to drive the clock time. It would be cool to be able to load a certain time into the counters as well.
