Tutorial - Large Digit Driver Hookup Guide about 8 years ago
The driver arrived few days back and I finally managed to start playing with it. But disappointed. I do not have Sparkfun Large 7 Segment Display. I used other 4" 7 segment Common Anode display. But it didn't work. I followed the arduino hookup guide, connected the abcdefg pins to my display's corresponding pins and uploaded the single digit program. All I got is number 8 glowing forever, along with the dot. No number counting - 1-2-3-4...
I am upset to realize that may be you guys have kept half of the circuit in this driver and half in your display. No where on the driver documentation, I see a word where you assured that it works with standard 12V Common Anode displays.
No public wish lists :(
