Connecting a seven-segment number display module to the RPZ
The seven-segment number display is a great way to test out different kinds of communication. With a little bit of circuitry, we can get our Raspberry Pi Zero to operate a display with ease.
Getting ready
For this recipe, you'll need the following
- A common-cathode seven-segment number display
- Two 330 Ohm resistors
- Jumper wires
How to do it...
- The schematic for running a seven-segment number display isn't hard at all. Here is how you'll connect it:
Note
While the 7 segment displays often have similar pin configurations, there is no guarantee they are identical. Always check your manufacturer's ...
