Quick Overview
This DIYables 0.36-inch single-digit 7-segment LED display delivers bright red numeric output in a compact standard BS-type DIP package. Available in both common anode and common cathode configurations, it suits a wide range of circuit designs — choose the version that matches your microcontroller logic and wiring preference. Each display has 7 segments plus a decimal point, with each segment accessible through its own pin for full individual control.
The display connects directly to GPIO pins via current-limiting resistors (typically 100–330Ω per segment), making it straightforward to drive from Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, or any 3.3V/5V microcontroller. For projects needing more GPIO efficiency, it pairs naturally with a 74HC595 shift register or 4511 BCD decoder. This 10-pack provides ten displays, ideal for multi-digit counters, educational sets, or production use.
Ideal for digital counters, scoreboards, numeric readouts, clocks, frequency displays, and STEM electronics learning. The standard BS-type footprint fits standard breadboards and PCBs, making it easy to integrate into both prototype and permanent circuit designs.
