Build an 8-Bit Decimal Display for 8-Bit Computer

Learn how to create a decimal display for an 8-bit value using an EEPROM (28C16) in this comprehensive video tutorial. Explore the technique of multiplexing to drive four digits with a single EEPROM, and discover how to implement both unsigned and signed (twos complement) display modes. Follow along as the instructor demonstrates the step-by-step process, including programming the EEPROM and assembling the necessary components. Gain insights into the use of a 555 timer IC, 74LS76 dual JK flip-flop, and 74LS139 dual 2-line to 4-line decoder. By the end of this 33-minute tutorial, you'll have the knowledge to build your own 8-bit decimal display for an 8-bit computer.
