Hello,
I am building the dotmatrix display, where I get the input through the 74hc165.
signals are A,B,C,D,E,F of 7segment and up & Down arrow.
the arrow input is sometime pulsating and some times continious.
when signal is pulsating the arrow must scrol when its continious the arrow must be standby, since I have used esternal capture pic of timer 2 for other pupose. my hardware is ready and i need to sense the Pulsating output with software code..
please help

Which micro controller are you using ?.
Does it have any interrupt pins available ?.

Is the 7KHz signal a square wave ?.

One simple method is to connect the signal to a normal pin.
In the test routine note the level on the pin.
Wait for 80 micro seconds (for a square wave) or until it changes.
If the level changes in that time it must be pulsing.

I have to say, I don't understand why you are monitoring the display.
