7-segment display BCD decoder with normal hex values

Question

I'm trying to find a 7-segment display BCD decoder IC with normal HEX display.

Most of the decoders that I managed to find have an output like this:

These hex values just look awful. I previously did this decoder on FPGA, and the output looked like this:

A b C d E F

Does anyone know some BCD decoder IC with "normal" HEX display?

A binary-coded decimal decoder wouldn't do that - if it did it would be called a seven-segment hexadecimal decoder instead. And apparently they don't make those. — Andrew Morton, Mar 21 '18 at 10:13
Look at this datasheet: http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn7447a.pdf — Marko Gulin, Mar 21 '18 at 10:14
This question (not exactly a duplicate) and its answers mention the MC14495-P1 (seemingly difficult to get hold of, hence the question) and a Fairchild part DM9368 (data sheet) which I have no idea about the availability of. — TripeHound, Mar 21 '18 at 11:14
Used to use a TTL PROM or MOS EPROM for this. Today I would probably use a PIC with 11 or more i/o pins. — AlmostDone, Mar 21 '18 at 12:08
I wasn't able to find any such IC, I will stick with the standard ones, and just won't use hex values. @AlmostDone Good suggestion using a PIC with 11 or more I/O pins! — Marko Gulin, Mar 30 '18 at 08:37

I have no idea on the availability of these chips:

The TIL311 is a complete hexadecimal display - might be an alternative.
