7 Segment Led Display (Common Cathode)

Description

7 Segment Led Display (Common Cathode)

7 Segment Led Display (Common Cathode), is a form of an electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an alternative to the more complex dot matrix displays.

In a common cathode display, all of the LED segment cathode connections are connected to logic “0” or ground. Individual segments are illuminated by applying a “HIGH” or logic “1” signal to the individual Anode terminals via a current limiting resistor (a-g).

Common Cathode 7 Segment Display Truth Table

In a common cathode 7 segment display, all the cathodes of the LEDs are linked together. Each LED is accompanied by a current-limiting resistor connected between it and the +VCC. In this configuration, to activate a specific LED, it is connected to +5V. Thus, by connecting inputs a to g to VCC, digits ranging from 0 to 9 can be displayed. For instance, to display the digit 3, LEDs a, b, c, d, and g will emit light, while the remaining LEDs will remain inactive. Consequently, the illuminated LEDs will take the form of the digit 3.
