AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for a bar-graph LED with a built-in flip-flop (FF) to latch values until the enable changes. The user has found standard 10-diode LEDs but is looking for a model that incorporates latching functionality. Suggestions include using LED displays with built-in latches, specifically referencing the old HP HDSP-07xx and -08xx series, which had integrated decoder/driver/memory features. However, these options are noted to be expensive, prompting consideration of alternative solutions using separate logic. Overall, the demand for such specific LED features appears limited, making it challenging to find suitable products.

Does anyone know if there is such a thing?
I need a bar-graph LED with a FF built-in. The only ones I could find on digikey is a regular 10-diode LED, but I need something that would latch or hold that value until the enable changes... I could use a regular one in combination with a D-FF, but it would be nice to have something internal instead.

Thanks in advance...
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
I've see LEDs with built-in resistors, and LED displays with built-in latches, but not individual LEDs or bar graphs with built-in latches. I don't think there's much demand for that function.
 
I guess LED display with a built-in latch might work... Do you happen to know a part-number or what key-word I should search for to find it?
Thanks, berkeman
 
The old HP HDSP-07xx and -08xx and -09xx hex displays had a built-in decoder/driver/memory feature (another vendor makes them now). Just go to Digikey.com and do a search on HDSP-0, to get a list of the ones they carry. They're dang expensive though, so that may motivate you to brew your own with separate logic after all.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
