6 digit version of the MC14489?

$WMc%

Hello All:
'
Is there a 6 digit version of the MC14489?
'
Or something similar to use for a 6 digit display?
'
I want to create an old school 6 digit freq. counter.
'
Or at least the looks with 6 red 7seg led displays.
'
I know 7seg displays are becoming a thing of the past. So I'm asking now before their gone forever.
'
Thanks in advance for any help.

Something like this http://www.maxim-ic.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/1339 might work.

There is no reason you couldn't just use two, Forrest Mims had a starting design in one in one of his books and I have seen a couple of similar projects.

edit: My bad, I was thinking of the 14553 which is a 3 digit BCD counter and needs an additional display driver.
