#128707 - 8 Segments
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Ralph Sack said:
... how is Dan using it too drive the display with 8 bits.
7 segment displays only need 7 bits.
And 1 bit for a digital (sic) point.

7 bits for the segments + 1 bit for the decimal point = 8 bits.
So where's the problem?

By the way: it's "Decimal Point" not "Digital Point"
(If you wanted to be generic, the term is "Radix Point")
