Product Description
The 0.56" 1-Digit Display is a robust solid-state device consisting of 8 individual LEDs (7 for the number segments and 1 for the decimal point). Unlike multi-digit modules, this single-digit version does not require multiplexing, meaning you can drive all segments simultaneously for maximum brightness. It features a black face and white segments, which ensures the red light is sharp and easy to read even in bright environments.
Key Features
Direct Drive Capability: Since it only has one digit, you can connect it directly to a microcontroller or a BCD-to-7-segment decoder without complex timing code.
High Reliability: LED technology ensures a long operational life of over 50,000 hours with consistent brightness.
Standard 10-Pin Layout: The 2.54mm pin pitch fits perfectly into breadboards and standard IC sockets for easy prototyping.
Low Power Requirement: Can be powered by a standard 3.3V or 5V rail (with appropriate resistors), making it ideal for battery-operated counters.
Uniform Illumination: Each segment is engineered to provide even light distribution, preventing "hot spots" within the digit.
