The single-digit seven-segment BD Series LED displays are available in a range of six different digit heights from 0.276 (7 mm) to 1.0 in. (25.4 mm) in 24 different styles and models. Common anode ...

A common display found on digital watches and readouts that looks like a series of 8s. ... Seven-segment Display Using two seven-segment digits, this readout can display from 00 to 99.

Malvern, Pa. A new family of low-current, single-digit, seven-segment displays from Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. deliver a luminous intensity up to 3600 microcandelas (μcd) with 1 mA of current. In ...

Irvine, Calif. — BivarOpto, the Optoelectronics division of Bivar Inc., has added a new ultra-high reliability blue seven-segment display to its BD series for applications that require highly reliable ...

The figure shows the circuitry for a two-digit, common-anode display (MAN6710) that can be expanded to any number of digits. Series resistors and the type of latch used limit the segment current.
