This document provides instructions for an experiment using a 7447 BCD to seven segment display decoder. The objectives are to learn number conversion between BCD, decimal, and seven segment display representation. The required components are a 7447 decoder IC, seven segment display, breadboard, resistors, and connecting wires. The procedure involves determining the display configuration, creating a truth table, designing a circuit diagram connecting the decoder and display with resistors, and implementing the circuit to display decimal digits from BCD input numbers. Students are asked to make K-maps and find the minimal SOP expression for each decoder output to design the circuit using a minimum number of gates.

Experiment # 07
Seven Segment Display

OBJECTIVES:

The objective of this experiment is to become familiar with the encoding/decoding and
display of numbers under different systems by learning the conversion of BCD numbers to
Decimal numbers to be displayed on a ‘Seven Segment Display’

Required Components and Equipment:

 IC: 7447 BCD/decimal decoder


 Seven-Segment Display
 Digital Electronics Trainer
 Bread Board
 Resistors : 330 Ω, 1 kΩ
 Connecting Wires

Overview:

A BCD to seven-segment decoder is a logic circuit often used for the visual display of digital
information. The seven outputs of the decoder will drive the seven segments on a corresponding
display. BCD is the acronym for Binary Coded Decimal. The BCD system is used to represent
the decimal numbers from 0 to 9 in a binary format suitable for digital devices. A four-bit code
is required with the decimal characters 0 through 9 represented by the binary numbers 0000
through 1001. The combinations 1010 through 1111 are not used. A BCD to seven-segment
decoder will allow the display of a binary coded decimal on a seven segment display. The input
to the decoder is a number from 0 through 9 in BCD and the output provides the seven inputs
required to drive the seven-segment display.

(BI) ′/ (RBO) ′ is wire-AND logic serving as blanking input (BI ) ′ and/or ripple-blanking output
(RBO ) ′. The blanking out (BI ) ′ must be open or held at a HIGH level when output functions
0 through 15 are desired, and ripple-blanking input (RBI ) ′ must be open or at a HIGH level if
blanking or a decimal 0 is not desired. X = input may be HIGH or LOW. When a LOW level
is applied to the blanking input (forced condition) all segment outputs go to a HIGH level
regardless of the state of any other input condition. When ripple-blanking input (RBI) ′ and
inputs A0, A1, A2 and A3 are LOW level, with the lamp test input at HIGH level, all segment
outputs go to a HIGH level and the ripple-blanking output (RBO ) ′ goes to a LOW level
(response condition). When the blanking input/ripple-blanking output (BI)′ / (RBO)′ is open
or held at a HIGH level, and a LOW level is applied to lamp test input, all segment outputs go
to a LOW level.

The seven segment display chip contains 7 LEDs, similar to the ones you have been using. The
only difference is that they have been packaged into a single chip, and they have a different
shape. The seven LEDs are not used individually; instead they are wired so their one end is
common. If the anodes of the LEDs are wired together it is called “Common Anode”
configuration and if the cathodes are connected together, it is known as “Common Cathode”
configuration. Both the configurations are shown below.

PROCEDURE:

1. Check the configuration of your 7-segment display using a Multi-meter. Find out its
configuration and pin-assignment.
2. Create the truth table describing the function of a BCD to seven-segment decoder
according to the configuration of your display. The lower case letters, a-g, represent
the segments on the display while the upper case letters A0-A3 represent the BCD
input. Note that the output of the decoder is active-low.

3. Design a circuit showing the proper connections of the decoder and the 7-segment
display. Invert the outputs of the decoder in case of common cathode display. The
output pins of 7447 are connected to the pins of seven segment display chip via
resistances as shown below:

4. Implement the circuit on the trainer. Enter BCD numbers from 0 to 9 and see the
corresponding decimal digit on the display.

Student Exercise:

Make K-maps for each of the output of the BCD to 7-segment decoder. Find out the minimal
SOP for each output. Design the decoder using minimum number of gates.
