In this tutorial we will use a common cathode 7 segment display. As each LED has two connecting pins, one called the “Anode” and the other called the “Cathode”, there are therefore two types of 7 segment display called "common cathode - cc" and "common anode - ca" (see third image above). The displays common pin is generally used to identify which type of 7-segment display it is. The other LED pins are connected together and wired to form a common pin. These individually LED pins are labelled from 'A' through to 'G' (see second image above) representing each individual LED.
An additional 8th LED (right corner) is sometimes used within the same package thus allowing the indication of a decimal point, (DP) when two or more 7-segment displays are connected together to display numbers greater than ten.Įach one of the seven LEDs in the display is given a positional segment with one of its connection pins being brought straight out of the rectangular plastic package. Each of the seven LEDs is called a segment because when illuminated the segment forms part of a numerical digit (decimal numbers and some letters) to be displayed. The 7 segment display consists of seven LEDs (hence its name) arranged in a rectangular fashion as shown (see first image above).
