A common method of indicating an error. |
Representing Letters on a Seven-Segment Display, while highly discouraged, have been done mostly in low-end products such as cheap portable media players and many hobby projects. In such places, 7-segment displays were extended to support letters. Those representations varies from implementation to implementation and are not standardized by any standards organization.
Note that some letters such as K (), M (
), V (
), W (
), X (
), and Z (
) are completely unrecognizable by most people and as such been left out of the table below.
Lookup table
One can decode letters to pins via a simple lookup table.
const unsigned char seven_seg_digits_decode_abcdefg[75]= {
/* 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 : ; */
0x7E, 0x30, 0x6D, 0x79, 0x33, 0x5B, 0x5F, 0x70, 0x7F, 0x7B, 0x00, 0x00,
