Seven Segment Display
Well, the name 7 segments implies there are 7 LED segments arranged as shown in figure 1. After LEDs they are the easiest interfaces to a microcontroller. There is also a decimal point or dp. It is used when decimal digits like 5.1 etc are displayed.
Applications
Seven segment are widely used in applications where digits[0-9] are required to be displayed.Although they also display letters A to F as shown in figure(2) simulation. This is a very simple and convenient way to display numbers in a bright fashion.
Form Factor
- Sizes:They come in various sizes; 0.28”, 0.3”, 0.32”, 0.36”, 0.39”, 0.4”, 0.5”, 0.56”, 0.6”, 0.8”, 1.0”, 1.2”, 1.5”, 1.8”, 2.0”, 2.3”, 3.0”, 4.0”, 5.0”, 7.0”)
- Colors: and varied colors too; Red, Green, Yellow, Orange, Blue, and White.
Working
Since these are basically LEDs arranged as a group they can either have anode in common or cathode.
- Common Cathode: This type of 7 segments, requires a positive voltage(5v) to given to the segments a to g in order to glow. This is shown in figure(3). Providing a positive voltage with respect to common cathode makes the LED forward biased.
- Common Anode: This type of 7 segments, requires a negativevoltage(GND) to given to the segments a to g in order to glow. This is shown in figure(4). A ground connection to cathode with respect to common anode again forward biases the LED which glows.
