I am looking for an LED (7 segment) style display with 8 digits.
I am building a GPS derived clock.
I see there is a MAXIM chip that does this, looking for one built up.
Cheers

Farnell have got a couple 4 x 7 segment displays from LED Technology pn 5014890 common anode red at $17.20 each , or pn 5014920 common cathode green $17.80 each They did have more but are not stocking them anymore. These are on stock run-out.
Tenrod in Sydney have some in various sizes (0.244",0.4" and 0.56") and wavelength.
Rockby have 4x7 red Sharlight CM4-5655 F for about a dollar each in their surplus section.
Amiga Electronics has an 4 digit display module with onboard driver chips, 2 of these stuck togeather should do niclely.

You will have to use multiple displays and put them together. I once had a 6 digit clock HH:MM:SS, I was able to light up just one of the
7 segs at a time at a higher enough rate that the brightness was still good to see. This made control a lot easier as I only needed to switch 6 cathodes and 7 datalines.ElectronDepot website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here.
