Key Terms
Common Anode Display
A seven-segment LED display where the anodes of all the LEDs are connected to the circuit supply voltage. Each segment is illuminated by a logic LOW at its cathode.
Common Cathode Display
A seven-segment display in which the cathodes of all the LEDs are connected together and grounded. A logic HIGH illuminates a segment when applied to its anode.
Datasheet
A printed specification giving details of the pin configuration, electrical properties, and mechanical profile of an electronic device.
Design Specifications
A detailed description, especially one providing information needed to make, build, or produce something.
Seven-Segment Display
An array of seven independently controlled light-emitting diodes (LED) or liquid crystal display (LCD) elements, shaped like a figure 8, which can be used to display decimal digits and other characters by turning on the appropriate elements.
