    Default Looking for a fresh set of eye's

    Greetings

    I've been tossing around this project for many weeks now..

    I'm looking at a 7 digit Julien calendar clock in large led format.

    D100, D10, D1, :, H10, H1, :, M10, M1 "365:23:59" 365 days, 23 hours, 59 min

    The ":"'s are pulsing to the seconds.

    I would like to use led's to make up the individual segments, which require a higher power and a higher pin driver mA. The clock needs to be seen from a moderate distance so scaling led segments would be the cheapest solution.

    I've used the 18F4525 only because I have one handy.. it doesnt stop me from changing it out should I find a beter suited PIC. Or if someone has already created a code based on another PIC.

    Could someone take a quick look at the attached file. and let me know if I'm on the right track with this.. any suggestions to reduce the chip count or optimize the circuit would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards
    Steve
