Many devices use multi-digit seven-segment LED indicators with dynamic indication. Usually they are connected to the ports of the microcontroller or to specialized driver ICs, such as the MAX7219.

A staple of consumer devices for decades, seven segment displays are arguably one of the most recognizable electronic components out there. So it’s probably no surprise they’re cheap and easy to ...

For high-heat environments, the QuasarBrite seven-segment numeric LED displays operate in temperatures up to 105°C. The 0.25W displays are available in sizes with 0.28” to 4” character heights and are ...

In a previous article, we explored the behavior of an LED diode as a small light source. We have seen how important a protection resistor is to light up this component. In this article, we will ...
