Using the Arduino development platform you will learn how to display numbers and letters on a single 7-segment LED display. There are many ways to drive 7-segment displays, and this is a fairly simple method.

Here you will learn how to wire the Arduino clone up and how to start your first project. In this tutorial, I am working with a breadboardable ATMega Lite Dev Kit from SurplusGizmos.com, but this can apply to other Arduino clones, too, such as the Ardweeny kit in the Maker Shed. Note: this tutorial is […]
