7-SEG DISPLAY

7-segment display, it is composed of 8 LEDs, 7

segments are arranged as a rectangle for symbol
displaying and there is an additional segment for
decimal point displaying. In order to simplify
connecting, anodes and cathodes of all diodes are
connected to the common pin so that there are

common anode displays and common cathode displays, respectively.
Segments are marked with the letters from A to G, plus DP, as shown in
the figure on the left. On connecting, each diode is treated separately,
which means that each must have its own current limiting resistor.

A seven segment display, as its name indicates, is composed of

seven elements. Individually on or off, they can be combined to
produce simplified representations of the Arabic numerals. Often
the seven segments are arranged in an oblique (slanted)

arrangement, which aids readability. In most applications, the seven

segments are of nearly uniform shape and size (usually elongated
hexagons, though trapezoids and rectangles can also be used), though in
the case of adding machines, the vertical segments are longer and more
oddly shaped at the ends in an effort to further enhance readability.
