BCD S EVEN SEGMENT D ECODER
I NTRODUCTION A Decoder IC, is a device which converts one digital format into another and the most commonly used device for doing this is the Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) to 7- Segment Display Decoder.

S EVEN SEGMENT LED DISPLAY A standard 7-segment LED display generally has 8 input connections. Some single displays have an additional input pin for the decimal point in their lower right or left hand corner.
T YPES OF SEVEN SEGMENT LED DISPLAY Common Cathode Display (CCD) In the common cathode display, all the cathode connections of the LED's are joined together to logic "0" and the individual segments are illuminated by application of a "HIGH", logic "1" signal to the individual Anode terminals.

Common Anode Display (CAD) In the common anode display, all the anode connections of the LED's are joined together to logic "1" and the individual segments are illuminated by connecting the individual Cathode terminals to a "LOW", logic "0" signal. T YPES OF SEVEN SEGMENT LED DISPLAY
