This 4 Digit 7 segment display project contains 4 x Common Cathode displays, current limiting resistors or each LED segment, 4 x PNP transistors on each common cathode for multiplexing, etc. This is a very compact project that works with 5V TTL signals but can be optimized for 3.3V operations by reducing current limiting resistors values. A header connector is provided for easy interface to Arduino or other microcontrollers. All inputs are compatible with TTL 5V signals.
