BCD To 7 Segment Decoder

The document discusses how a 7-segment display works to display digits from 0 to 9. It explains that the display has 7 segments labeled a-g that are turned on and off in certain combinations to represent each number. Tables are provided showing which segments are activated for each digit. From these tables, the document derives a truth table that lists the on/off logic values for each segment corresponding to the binary coded decimal (BCD) input values from 0-9.

You can easily draw this function table from 7-segment display.

7-segment display has 7 segments: a, b, c, d, e, f, e and g. When we have to display a


digit then these segments are turned on and off accordingly.
For example, we have to display digit 0 then segments a, b, c, d, e, f, g are turned on.

The following diagram shows digits 0 to 4 and shows which segments are turned on to
display a particular decimal value.

The following diagram shows digits 5 to 9 and shows which segments are turned on to
display a particular decimal value.

Function table from the above diagrams will be

From the above table you can see that segment a has logic 1 output for decimal values 0,
2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
Segment b has logic 1 output for decimal values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9.
Similarly, you can find the output for other segments.
The BCD to 7 segment decoder has 16 possible input combinations in which 0 to 9 are
valid input combinations and remaining are dont care input combinations.
