Lab 7 Segment Display

The document discusses using a 7447 7-segment driver to display numbers on a display. It describes how the 7447 uses RBI and RBO pins to blank the display when all inputs are zeroes instead of displaying a 0. It also discusses using a 7490 binary counter instead of switches to generate and sequence numbers to two 7447 displays to show a 2-digit number from 0 to 99. The assignment is to design a 3-digit counter that can count from 0 to 999, blanking leading zeroes so 2 is displayed as 2, not 002.
