Introduction
In your digital electronics class of 20, there is a 6.8% probability that two of you share the same date of birth. This is assuming that you are all the same year level (sophomore/junior). If you are not, the probability would be even lower.
Your date of birth makes you unique. We are going to use this uniqueness to design a circuit that will display your date of birth on a single seven-segment display. Admittedly, this design does not have any real practical application, but is a fun exercise that will bring together all of the design techniques that you have learned in this lesson.
Your date of birth may make you unique in your class, but in 2006 there were 263,898,574,096 births world-wide. This means that on a daily basis, over 700,000,000 individuals share the same date of birth.
