Hi all,
I haven't designed a circuit in the past 15 years and need some help.
I'm into aircraft avionics and want to build a test box to decode the
altitude encoders output. It's a gray scale binary output.
There is a kit out there that only brings it out to binary and that's
located at http://www.rst-engr.com/rst/catalog/altitude_encoder_and_elt.html
I'd like to buy the kit and add additional circuitry to allow for the
real time digital display of altitude.
The altitude needs to display in thousands of feet with increments of
100 feet. Each bit change is in 100 foot increments.
The range would be -2000 to 40,000 feet.
10100 feet would be displayed as 10.1 so I would guess a four segment
display would be in order.
I suspect that I would need to burn some type of a prom to take the gray
code output and then feed it into the display.
Is there something out there that will do this in a single IC?
What would I need to burn the prom?
Thanks
Dave
