Two 7-Segment Display Setup for 0-15 Counter

To set up two 7-segment displays for a counter from 0 to 15, a ripple counter like the 7493 can be used to count up or down. The first display shows digits 0-9, while the second display activates for numbers 10-15, with the first display indicating the units and the second the tens. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding whether the data is in binary or BCD format for proper display. A truth table was created to aid in finding a solution. This setup allows for effective counting and display of numbers beyond single digits.

how can i put two 7-segment displays for a counter 0-15? after 9 there are two digits and i have to use a second 7-segment display to display "1" and the first one displays 0,1,2,3,4,5 as the number becomes 10,11,12,13,14,15 where these aren't BCD numbers...any help

Are you designing your own logic, or making something on a breadboard with chips? What kind of chips do you have available? If the data is not in BCD format, is it just plain binary?

You've given us nowhere near enough information for us to be able to help you.

it's a ripple counter 7493 counts up/down(using XOR gates)from 0 to 15 ...i drew a truth table and i think i got the solution now

Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'

I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
