@whitequark yup! that's one use, people would couple these with multi-digit dual slope A/D converter chips. good for adding GPIB or whatever to your existing instrument design

@tubetime Backing data out of a 'display a/d converter' like the ICL7106?

@tubetime An oddball thing to use this is to read data from video signals that are either generated by a camera pointing precisely at a 7 segment display, or one of those early "consumer" OSD chips that use 7 segments.
