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...

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.
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
