What is 7 segmentli display?

A 7-segment display is a form of electronic display device that is commonly used to show numerical digits and some alphabetical characters.

It consists of seven LED (Light Emitting Diode) segments arranged in the shape of the digit 8 or a rectangle with a segment on each side, with an additional eighth LED dot (or decimal point) used for displaying decimal numbers.

Seven segments are identified by alphabets from a to g, which can be turned on or off to display various numbers. By selectively lighting up the segments, different numbers and letters can be displayed.

The most common form of 7-segment display is a single-digit display with a decimal point, but multiple-digit displays are also available. They are commonly used in digital clocks, calculators, and other electronic devices where numerical information is required.

Today, there are various types of 7-segment displays available in the market, including traditional LED displays, LCD displays, and OLED displays. They can be found in different colors, sizes, and shapes depending on specific requirements of the application.
