BCD-To-Seven Segment Latch/Decoder/Driver
CMOS MSI (Low−Power Complementary MOS)

The MC14513B BCD−to−seven segment latch/decoder/driver is constructed with complementary MOS (CMOS) enhancement mode devices and NPN bipolar output drivers in a single monolithic structure. The circuit provides the functions of a 4−bit storage latch, an 8421 BCD−to−seven segment decoder, and has output drive capability. Lamp test (LT), blanking (BI), and latch enable (LE) inputs are used to test the display, to turn−off or pulse modulate the brightness of the display, and to store a BCD code, respectively. The Ripple Blanking Input (RBI) and Ripple Blanking Output (RBO) can be used to suppress either leading or trailing zeroes. It can be used with seven−segment light emitting diodes (LED), incandescent, fluorescent, gas discharge, or liquid crystal readouts either directly or indirectly.
Applications include instrument (e.g., counter, DVM, etc.) display driver, computer/calculator display driver, cockpit display driver, and various clock, watch, and timer uses.
