A TRANSISTOR DECADE-SCALER USING A COLD-CATHODE INDICATOR-TUBE DISPLAY
Jingwen Leng, J.C. Irvine · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1961
A numeric, in-line, decimal display is described that uses a cold- cathode indicator tube for each decade. Because the binary-to-decimal decoding circuitry is more extensive than each decade, a time-sharing system is used whereby one decodfng circuit is used to decode the decades sequentially. The decoding circuit is of the transistordecoding-tree type. (T.F.H.)
