"MaryaToy" Project
This project was developed for my daughter to stop her from playing with the
Thermistor based Digital Thermometer. This circuit is similar to the thermometer project,
but uses shift registers to drive fifteen segment LED displays and a 74S138 for the common
cathodes instead of the discrete transistors used in the previous project.

source code.
The circuit used for the final versoin of this application is given in the
pdf file that you can look at Here.
