[time-nuts] PPS clock module

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

I don’t think anybody runs a clock off of a PPS :)  That would be nutty …. 

The closest I have seen is to womp up a “pulse 60 times” gizmo. Drive that off of the PPS. Feed the output 
into something designed for use in a bedside clock. I’d guess an 8 pin PIC and a few (dozen) lines of code
is the quick way to do it. The obvious problem is that if the PPS is correct, the clock is not going to roll over 
on the PPS edge (unless the module accepts the 60 pulses at a very fast rate ….. who knows …. )

I probably haven't hit the magic search words, but I haven't found what I'm looking: a module (no enclosure) that is driven by an external PPS and shows at least HH:MM:SS in 24 hour format on a small LED or LCD display.
