A staple of consumer devices for decades, seven segment displays are arguably one of the most recognizable electronic components out there. So it’s probably no surprise they’re cheap and easy to ...

In a previous article, we explored the behavior of an LED diode as a small light source. We have seen how important a protection resistor is to light up this component. In this article, we will ...

The circuit was constructed with seven-segment LED to display which zone triggered the alarm while utilizing six independent zones. Buffered CMOS, denoted by suffix B, were used because the gain is ...

Date Announced: 22 May 2012 Lumex announces the global launch of its QuasarBrite High-Temperature Surface-Mount (SMD) Seven-Segment numeric LED Display technology capable of providing bright, crisp ...

Seven-segment displays are needed in many instrument designs. In conventional microcontroller-based designs, four output port lines are allocated for one seven-segment display. Figure 1 shows the ...

Many options exist to drive seven-segment LED displays, but most are limited to low output currents. The approach described here uses one 74ALS374 or 74AS374 octal latch, wired as a shift register, ...

If you need a seven-segment display for a project, you could just grab some LED units off the shelf. Or you could build something big and electromechanical out of Lego. That’s precisely what [upir] ...
