Seven-Segment LED

Consider a 7-segment LED display, as shown. The display is capable of indicating all decimal digits, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and the hexadecimal digits a, b, c, d, e, and f.

  • Constraining your output to a seven-segment display, draw each digit using only the segments provided.
  • Consider a four-bit binary input, representing hexadecimal digits 0-f. Develop a series of logic gates which convert the four-bit input into a seven-segment output, such that the binary number on the four-digit input is correctly represented on the seven-segment display.
  • Save a link to your engineering design in your journal.
