The 16mm x 30mm 3-Digit 7-Segment Common Cathode Display is an electronic display component designed to show numerical digits, commonly used in devices like digital clocks, calculators, and various instrumentation. Here’s a detailed description:
Key Specifications:
Dimensions:
- Height: 30mm
- Width: 16mm
- Display Type: 7-segment, common cathode
- Each of the three digits is made up of seven LED segments arranged in a figure-eight pattern to display numbers 0–9.
Features:
- Number of Digits: 3 digits
- Segment Type: LED (Light Emitting Diode) for each segment of the digits.
- Common Cathode Configuration: All cathodes (negative terminals) of the LEDs in each digit are connected together to a common ground, while each segment's anode (positive terminal) is controlled individually.
- Pin Configuration: Typically, this type of display has pins for each segment (A-G) and decimal point, along with shared cathode pins.
Applications:
- Used in electronic devices for displaying numerical values.
- Common in clocks, timers, temperature displays, counters, and other digital readouts.
Power Requirements:
- Forward voltage per segment: Typically around 2V to 2.5V for red LEDs, varying slightly for other colors like green or blue.
- Current: Each segment typically requires around 10-20 mA for full brightness.
Display Color:
- Red (commonly available) or other colors depending on the type of LED used in the display.
Package Included:
1x 16mmx30mm 3 Digit 7 Segment Common Cathode Display
