I'm looking to buy an (old) UNILAB counter module of amazon (unilab counter module 120) with a view to using it in a project - and saving me a little construction. But I can see from the picture in the ad that there is a CD4510BE BCD up/down counter, feeding a MC14495 which is a hex decoder driver. Both description obtained from Googling data sheets.
My question is why is the dec/driver not a BCD type and how can the 4510 and 14495 work together..or am I missing something ?
