Description:
This is probably the smallest binary coded decimal (BCD) 7 segment display driver.
This display driver was built and designed by me – check out my youtube channel (TheDarkness344), I post lots of cool redstone creations like calculators and such
You can pair this display driver with a decimal to BCD converter or binary BCD converter. I would suggest checking out Bennyscube on YouTube for more info about that. (his converters will still work on bedrock edition).

A BCD display driver such as this would typically be used for a display on a redstone calculator or computer. you would probably link this up to a binary to BCD converter so you can input binary into it.
Why use BCD
BCD display drivers are way more useful than standard ROM display drivers. they are much smaller and most likely faster. they are also infinitely expandable.
Instead of having to make 99 separate drivers for the ROM method, You could have a very small BCD display, less than an 8th of the size. It would be even more practical the higher numbers you get! Imagine putting in 9999 separate lines for a calculator – super tedious. Instead you can just use a small BCD display – MUCH easier.
