Seven-segment displays may use a liquid-crystal display (LCD), a light-emitting diode (LED) for each segment, an electrochromic display, or other light-generating or -controlling techniques such as cold cathode gas discharge (neon) (), vacuum fluorescent (VFD), incandescent filaments (Numitron), and others.
The output lines are connected to the anodes through driver transistors in case of common cathode 7-segment LEDs. The cathodes are connected to scan lines through driver transistors. The display can be blanked by BD (low) line. The display section consists of 16 x 8 display RAM. The CPU can read from or write into any location of the display RAM.

The following phrases come from a portable media player's seven-segment display. They give a good illustration of an application where a seven-segment display may be sufficient for displaying letters, since the relevant messages are neither critical nor in any significant risk of being misunderstood, much due to the limited number and rigid domain specificity of the messages.
The following table compares cathode-ray tube (CRT), liquid-crystal display (LCD), plasma and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display device technologies. These are the most often used technologies for television and computer displays.
The first multi-segment VFD was a 1967 Japanese single-digit, seven-segment device made by Ise Electronics Corporation. [6] The displays became common on calculators and other consumer electronics devices. [7] In the late 1980s hundreds of millions of units were made yearly. [8]
It features common-cathode flyback diodes for switching inductive loads (such as servomotors). It can come in PDIP , SOIC , SOP or TSSOP packaging. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In the same family are ULN2002A, ULN2004A, as well as ULQ2003A and ULQ2004A, designed for different logic input levels.
Digital clocks display changing numerals The common segment displays shown side by side: 7-segment, 9-segment, 14-segment and 16-segment displays. Some displays can show only digits or alphanumeric characters. They are called segment displays, because they are composed of several segments that switch on and off to give appearance of desired glyph.
