/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I know this is really easy and that I could do this with resistors. But the end product I'm going to do will be 8 total connections that will need display leds on if the device is on or off. I feel I know IC's well enough that they should have no problem with 8 inputs and 8 outputs based on them with a bit of work. But I'm not sure what that IC would be. Google searching keeps giving me either chaser/blinker ics, which I'm just looking for an on/off setup. Which I feel would also be really helpful in the future.
