We’ve been displaying numbers using segmented displays for almost 120 years now, an invention that predates the LEDs that usually power the ubiquitous devices by a half-dozen decades or so. But LEDs ...
Seven-segment displays are one of the most ho-hum ways to display the time. They were cool for a little bit in the 70s, but ...
Discover the fascinating process behind building a mechanical 7-segment display entirely from cardboard and simple household ...
A common display found on digital watches and readouts that looks like a series of 8s. Each digit is formed by selective illumination of from one to seven separately addressable segments. For more ...
The digital desk clock project was created for displaying the time and date on ten 7-segment displays. The project was built based on some requirements like the use of 7-segment displays, ...

The project illustrates a Charlieplexing of a group of 7-segment LED displays which is similar to the Charlieplexing of discrete LEDs but with some changes since all the LED segments have a common pin ...
The single-digit seven-segment BD Series LED displays are available in a range of six different digit heights from 0.276 (7 mm) to 1.0 in. (25.4 mm) in 24 different styles and models. Common anode or ...
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, ...
My current hobby project involves creating a 21st Century incarnation of a super-tasty 21-segment Victorian display technology. I will explain more in a moment, but first... I don’t know about you, ...
