sixsevensix Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Playing with these logic gates reminded me of my intro to computer engineering class so I decided to dig up a project I worked on and implement it in ONI. In order to do that I needed to see if a four bit seven segment display would work... so far I'm on the right track. It's a bit bulky but I wanted to make sure my gates were functioning correctly first before I tried to make it compact: Not very practical, but definitely was fun getting to work. Right now it handles up to 0-9 but I think I messed up somewhere since it doesn't handle A-F correctly. My aim is to try and make a 4 digit clock that shows the ingame time of day as a 12:00 format, but that depends on how much I can compact this display circuit. Let me know what you think.

Saturnus Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Is it just decimal or hexadecimal like the one I did when automation upgrade just came out? Decimal display encoders can be made very small indeed. Full hexadecimal? Not so much. But I can make it smaller than by moving some of the gates into the bus but it will also be less intuitive for people building to debug.

sixsevensix Posted November 11, 2017 Author Share Posted November 11, 2017 Its just a decimal 7 segment. My old project was a set of 4 displays where you would have a set of numbers scroll across the four displays. I'm still refreshing myself on what I can do with logic gates and digging through old assignments so my circuit looks like trash compared to that lol. I got so into making this I didn't think to check if anyone else had done it. On a side note, I've spent enough time looking at red and green wires that I think I'm gonna skip the holidays this year.

Cilya Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 51 minutes ago, Saturnus said: I made another try at a minimized decimal display encoder and got it down to 17 logic gates and 6 not gates in a 13x14 tile square. If it works, it's amazing how you managed to reduce its size !

I can't seem to get it smaller than 13x15 tiles but at least it's working.

Oozinator Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Is there a way, to make a nice digit display, to leave some messages? I did that manually and use automation, only to switch zones manually off (to prevent the red icon), but visuals are not good/great? OT: Can someone of you please, find to a solution here (without switching files, when possible(usability)?
