This circuit can be used to display a row of up to eight digits on a TV screen. It gives a video output consisting of horizontal and vertical synchronisation pulses and the black/white pattern corresponding to the digits in seven segment format. It will accept an eight-digit parallel input and, as an example, the circuit of an eight-decade frequency counter is also given. Leading-zero blanking is included in the design.
