7 Segment 2 Digit and 10 pins Counter 00-99 with Arduino UNO

Today we are going to create a  project with 7-segment LED 2-digit by using Arduino UNO, include the wiring and coding.  Now to see this project step by step:
Figure 1: 7-Segment 2-digit 10-pins

Project Requirement: 


  • Arduino UNO
  • Breadboard
  • Jump Wire
  • 7-Segment 2-Digit 10-pins LED

1. Understand the segments in 7-Segment LED


7-Segment LED has 7 segments LED to display the number from Zero to Nine for each one digit. Each segment has is own variable and work independently. See the figure 2 below:



Figure 2: 7 Segments and Binary Code


To set the 7-Segment LED with binary code, you have to write the code sequence from a-g and left to right with start up binary header "0b".

Figure 3.7-segment 2-digit 10-pins 

Figure 3 show the 7-segment 2-digit 10-pins, how to set each pin on this LED.

a, b, c, d, e, f and g are not on order, so please carefully in wiring. Otherwise your LED display will not show the number you want.

"ds1" is the power pin to support digit 1 on the right side and "ds2" is the power pin to support digit 2 on the left side. "dp" is point pin next to the digit buttom.


Make sure you have connected with the right pin of Arduino and 7-Segment LED. 









2. Circuit Wiring


 Set Arduino UNO digital pin from 2 to 8 are the pins to control the 7-Segment display. Arduino UNO pin 12 & 13 are the switch power for the two digits on 7-Segment LED.

3. Coding

  1. int digit[10] = {0b0111111, 0b0000110, 0b1011011, 0b1001111, 0b1100110, 0b1101101, 0b1111101, 0b0000111, 0b11111111, 0b1101111};  
  2.   
  3. int digit1, digit2;  
  4.   
  5. void setup()   
  6. {  
  7.   for (int i = 2; i < 9; i++)   
  8.   {  
  9.     pinMode(i, OUTPUT);  
  10.   }  
  11.   pinMode(12, OUTPUT);  
  12.   pinMode(13, OUTPUT);  
  13. }  
  14.   
  15. void loop() {  
  16.   for (int j = 0; j <= 99; j++)   
  17.   {  
  18.     digit2 = j / 10;  
  19.     digit1 = j % 10;  
  20.   for ( int k = 0; k < 20; k++)  
  21.   {  
  22.       digitalWrite(12, HIGH);  
  23.       digitalWrite(13, LOW);  
  24.       dis(digit2);  
  25.       delay(10);  
  26.   
  27.       digitalWrite(13, HIGH);  
  28.       digitalWrite(12, LOW);  
  29.       dis(digit1);  
  30.       delay(10);  
  31.   }  
  32.   }  
  33. }  
  34.   
  35. void dis(int num)   
  36. {  
  37.   for (int i = 2; i < 9; i++)   
  38.   {  
  39.     digitalWrite(i, bitRead(digit[num], i - 2));  
  40.   }  
  41. }  

Test the Project

You will counter from 00 to 99 and loop this count on you 7-Segment LED.
