Lesson19: 7-Segment Display
Device like digital clock shows the actual number of time. It is easy
to read especially for those people who have blurry eyes and those
children who don’t know yet how to read an analog clock. But what
makes it display numbers? This kind of clock uses a seven-
segment display or seven-segment indicator. It is a form of
electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an
alternative to the more complex dot matrix displays. It consists of 8
LEDs connected in parallel that can be lit in different combinations
to display the numbers (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, etc.). It
is also widely used in digital clocks, basic calculators and so on.

TWO TYPES OF SEGMENT
There are two types of Led 7-Segment displays:
Common Cathode (CC) and Common Anode (CA).

Lesson 20: Project: Working with 7-Segment
Display
Seven-segment display is an electronic display device for
displaying decimal numerals. It is widely used in displaying
numbers and some letters electronically. The segment (LED)
display is denoted by letters A to G and the eighth segment called
“Decimal Point”. It is denoted by DP and is used for the display of
non-integer numbers. Working with 7-Segment Display is
slightly complicated especially in terms of coding numbers and
operating in basic electronics but learning with this device is
exciting. Using seven –segment display, you can present numbers
in your programmed calculator or even in a simple score board.
