hi guys...

first post so here goes...

i currently have a circuit that allows me to read bytes from a atmel flash. currently it out puts the data as 32bit binary or 8 * 4bits

currently it uses 32 led's to dispaly the data i then convert it to hex using windows calc.

what i would like to do is display this on a 7 seg displays. i did think about the simple route of using 7447 ics but these dont display hex digits.

i have searched high and low for a solution but come up blank. i have a pic16f84 to play with but have no knowledge on writing code for it.

i did find the max7219 can display on upto 8 digits which is perfect but that means i need to use the 16f84 to read the binary and output the data to the 7219..i think...

ne help would be great.
