How to use 74HC595 Shift registers to control mulitple 7 segment displays

Hello Mario, I just want to convey my appreciation , i.e. on how to wire and program four (4) common cathode 7-segment displays (2.3"). I followed your advice (reversed the polarity and make the 0s to 1s on the code). It works very well ! I'd like to upload a short video clip, but I'm not sure if its allowed in the comments. Anyway, you are a great teacher and again, many thanks for the prompt response and advice. You made my day!

I know this video is geared for Arduino board users, I was hoping that there wouldn't be much difference for ESP32 boards. I don't know if ESP32 boards accept/understand the first format, but I found some examples using the shiftOut method, and the ESP32 board ran it successfully. You explained this complicated stuff well!

[@marios_ideas]

Glad you liked it. I am not an expert. I stumbled upon Arduino 2 years ago and it became my hobby. I learn as I go alone. And as I learned I struggled to find one comprehensive guide for each topic I was interested in. So I decided to create such tutorials myself:)

[@DeeGeeDeFi]

@@marios_ideas I understand! When you can finally figure out something that's complicated, you make the best to teach it to others. I got my starter kit about 2.5 years ago, picked it up but let it sit on my shelf for a year or so because it was getting complicated. I treat it like a hobby instead of a job now. It should be enjoyable, and if a component becomes too challenging, I switch to some other Arduino component. Now, I want to move on to the 4 digit 7 segment display.

[@TheXJ12]

Back in the early '90, I used 4 CD4094 shift registers (similar to 74hc595) and used the clock pin to discharge a capacitor (to Gnd) resistor (to 5V) through a diode to automatically strobe the data. Only 2 pins used. It was controlled via the parallel port of a Dragon 32. Great times

[@marios_ideas]

I have to admit I am not familiar with CD4094. Does it work in more or less the same way as 74hc595 or the concept is different. The use of the two pins with use of capacitor sounds like something that is waaay over my head:) Can you explain the concept?

[@TheXJ12]

@@marios_ideas Yes, cd4094 and 74hc595 are the same except pinout. A resistor connected to 5V charges a capacitor and the diode connected to the clock discharges it. At the end of the transmission, clock stays high, the capacitor charges and triggers the strobe.

[@hanasustrova5222]

Thank you for the video and I have a question. I'm wondering if I could use 4 digit 7 segment display with two of these shift registers and Arduino and then also connect something else to it? I mean if the Arduino wouldn't blow up or something.

[@marios_ideas]

Arduino would not blw up. If you cnnect more sensors potentially you may need power e.g. shift registers from external 5v power source as Arduino may not cope with too many devices. Then data pis of shift registers, servos , led strips etc stil go to arduino but you connect 5x and GND to external power source

[@cosscat]

wow, super nice illustrations; what do you use to do them?

[@marios_ideas]

powerpoint:)

[@Shyamkumar-di5fu]

9:16 why there is a delay after the shiftOut ? Can we use without delay? Because its affecting to my whole code.

[@marios_ideas]

This is the delay in between displaying different digits. Without it all digits will be displayed one by one with no delay in between which for your eyes it would seem like all segments are lit all the time

[@JushuaAbraham-sj2xl]

What about driving multiple seven segment displays with just two wires (data wire and ground) from the MCU?.using for example NRZ , Manchester coding or other asynchronous serial data transfer schemes ,is it possible?

[@amaan_shaikh]

How do you calculated the current limiting resistor's value?

[@stefandaraban5076]

Ohm law(U=I*R). You take the average LED current consumption (ex 20mA) and the forward voltage (ex 3V) and you calculate U=3V, I=20mA => R=3/0,02=150 ohm

[@Enigma758]

I think you may be overdriving the 74HC595 which has a total chip current limit of 70mA. What value did you use for your current limiting resistors (you appear to be inconsistent across the two displays),

[@marios_ideas]

This is an old video an i am fully aware of my electronic shortcomings. i will check but i think i was using 220ohm resistors but the couple of 330ohm could have sneeked as well. Can you let me know How you would do it not to overdrive the shift register. What is going to happen when it overdrives, will it be damaged or will it work in unpredictable way

[@Enigma758]

@@marios_ideas Powering at 5v, assuming 2v forward voltage typical for each red LED, and 220 ohm resistor, each LED consumes (5-2)/220 = 13.6mA. When all 7 segments are lit producing an "8", that's 7*13.6mA = 95mA. The datasheet for the 74HC595 specifies a max chip current of 70mA (note: one should always go under that amount, leaving some headroom). I see many videos which makes this same mistake, one should always read the datasheet and understand the limitation of the devices, I can't stress that enough. A simple fix would be to use a higher resistor value. 470 ohm would be fine and I doubt that you'd even notice a difference in brightness (due to the V I curve of LEDs). the 74HC595 is not designed to be an LED driver. If you really needed to drive more current, then its common to use a TPIC6595 or pair the 595 with ULNs which are darlington sink drivers and can handle a much larger current draw. Also, if you overdrive it, 1 - you might get "lucky" and nothing may happen, 1- the chip might overheat, 3 - the chip may behave unpredictably, 4 - the chip may not last very long. Also, you should use a decoupling capacitor on each 74HC595 since they are prone to spikes due to their switching speed. Thanks for responding, we are all here to learn.

[@marios_ideas]

Thank. That was valuable lessin. I think i had some unpredictable behaviour in one of my projects which i did not understand. As to capacitor which should be a value and where should i place it, between vcc and gnid pins of register?

[@Enigma758]

@@marios_ideas .1uf (104) is commonly used. Place it as close to Vcc and ground as possible.

[@marios_ideas]

Since we are talking I would ask you to have a look at my other shift register video. There I was testing a breakout board for 74HC164. There I went for a shortcut and used just one current limiting resistor connected to common pin. I know this is not the right way to do but am I right in saying that this way I will not overdrive the shift register. When purchasing this from china I did not receive a datasheet for this part. Should I then in this case check generla datasheet for 74HC164 chip?

[@marios_ideas]

That is correct it is common anode. If you do not want to use leading yeros you just need to push in bunch of "1"s into the register then no segment would be lit.

Is it possible to have 16 bits with 2 shift registers or 15 bits? Can the pin 7 on the first shift register be different than pin 0 on the second?

[@marios_ideas]

It is entirely up to you. This shift register was made, i think to control 7 segments display, and with 8 pins can control 7 segments and a dot. As you can see in my video I ignored the dot. But you can also e.g. control 14 segment display en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteen-segment_display. Here you would need 2 shift registers but use only 14 pins out of 16.

[@kizamuno9485]

what type of segment display do you use, is it a common cathode or common anode

[@marios_ideas]

You can use both. For common cathode you lit segment by sending high signal to appropiate pin. If you deal with common anodę then you lit the segment by sending low signal. Check the code and from it it will be apparent which tyle was used.

what parts do i need to make a 16 segment do 7 characters ? PRND321 .

[@marios_ideas]

You mean this one? pl.aliexpress.com/item/1005001297960517.html These modules have dedicated library. If you wanted to control a single display for one digit/character you can do it yourself using 2 shift registers but it is a lot of connections each of 16 segments needs to have its own resistor. If you were to wire 4 of these that would be 8 shif registers and 64 resistors. Good luck:)

You're using a common anode LED segment. Wiring for mine is going to be (a little) (a lot) different. I've never used a 7-segment LED, and its only the second time I've wired up a shift register. And, can any pins be used for DC/latch/clock? Thank you!

[@lycrags]

Hi Mario please help! I have an electronic bingo board from the 1980's. It has 2 boards each with two 7 segment displays. One board has the chip and then connects the power and data to the other board. The main board with the chip has 3 wires that connect to the main bingo board which gives it its power and data. The wires had been cut so I asked my electrician friend to test it for me. He put some thin wiring to the bingo board and then to the 3 wires but nothing happened. I am worried we fried the chip incase he sent 5v in the data in cable. But since then I took it to an electronic specialist and he has connected it to 5v and all four 7 segment displays are counting in unison 0-9. Does that mean the chip is ok since it is counting like in test mode, is it the chip making it do that? Or if it was fried would it not count anymore?

[@marios_ideas]

The cip must be ok as if the shift register or the 7 segment display was fried there is no way counting 0-9 would work

[@julienleloup579]

Hey, wouldn't it be easier to just use on resistor on the cathode instead of using on every anode?

[@marios_ideas]

Yes it would. I use it sometimes. But in this setup the brightness of the segments will depend on the number of segments concurrently lit when using a single current limiting resistor connected to the common cathode. When multiple segments are illuminated simultaneously, they will share the current flowing through the resistor. As a result, the current is divided among the lit segments, potentially reducing the brightness of each segment compared to when they are individually lit.

[@ReinAbrera]

Hi, I am still confused in the first code. You said that if you write HIGH in DS and SHCP, it will then throw HIGH in the storage register. But in the code - if(digits[Digit][i]==1) digitalWrite(DS_pin, LOW); isn't it a bit contradicting? I am very bad at programming, can you please enlighten me? Thanks in advance.

This is a common cathode matrix so you light the led by sending low signal. In the table where I store digit info the pixel that needs to be lit is represent by one . So in this if statement i invert the state

Hi, I think I have an issue with the shift register. am using TPIC6C596 shift register and this register is capable of sending 8 bits. When I start sending 8 bits, I am getting only the last bit (i.e decimal point). But without the 8th bit (decimal point), my shift register can transfer whole 7 bits at a time. May i get the solution for this? When I implement in the proteus I am getting proper output. while doing the same in the hardware, I face the issue. For example, 0b00000110, I am getting the value as 1. if i do, 0b00000110 | 0b10000000, I am getting only .(dot) without 1. I should get 1.(one + dot). shiftOut(DS_pin, SHCP_pin, MSBFIRST, dec_digits[(buf[i] - 0x30)]|0x80); What will be the issue.? 0r my doubt is when supply goes to decimal point, all the other pins goes to OFF condition. When supply don’t go to the decimal point, all the other pins goes to ON condition. Is that correct?

[@marios_ideas]

You should get 1 with a dot when pushing 0b10000110 if that does not work then there is something wrong. Also mind in my video I did not even connect decimal point. I just posted a new video where I design and order PCB for this. There I include DP. When this board arrives I will make a follow up video where I will use DP as well

It is common anode. And you decide What is going to be displayed on each display by pushing in the right combination of burd. If you do not want to have leasing zero you push in 00000000 instead of bit representation of zero. If you want to have characters you need to make out the bit representation (which segments schould be lit) for those characters. If you want to use 3 registers then you push in 24 bits instead of sixteen

Hey Mario, thank you for your very helpful Video, I am writing my Thesis now. I might need some screenshots from your Video. would it be Ok for you if I used them and I will tag you in my thesis?

[@marios_ideas]

Sure go ahead

how about if I want to make a countdown from 60-00

[@marios_ideas]

Funny enough I was just working on the video that may have some guidance for you. Check kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5KYomCueduNh9U Obviously you have to adapt it to whatever you want to do but the coutdown is explained there

Salut svp comment je peux écrire ce même code en mikro c pro avec le Pic 16f628 et le 74ch164

[@marios_ideas]

I do not have any PIC microcontrollers. I concentrate on Arduino. But I have a separate tutorial for 74ch164 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYLJmJusfb6Hos0

Hello, its a nice video and I have learnt quite a lot from it. I however have a doubt, if I need to make it a count down timer with 3 digits, I would be needing a third shfit register. This is clear, but what changes do I need to make in the code? For Eg. I need to count down from 399 to 0 or 198 to 0. Would appreciate inputs from your end to clarify further and make it wholesome..

[@marios_ideas]

You have to push the sequence of 3x8=24 bits instead of 3x8=12 bits.

@@marios_ideas Thanks Mario, I will update the details on the project here. I have another query for you. a. Does any of the data, clock and latch pins need pull up resistors ? b. what about the serial out pin of the first 74HC595 and the serial in pin of the second 74HC595? Do they need any for stable and reliable operation?

[@marios_ideas]

@@madhavdivya No. There is no pull up resistors. As the state of the connection is always know, it is either high or low. In case of e.g. using push buttons you need pull up resistors as when not pressed button is like a loose wire, and such flaoting connection has to be pulled either up or down. I have never experienced stability issues when daisy chaning the shift registors.

Hi friend. First of all, congratulations on your video, it is very interesting, I would like to do the same but with two CD4094 integrateds, since it uses three wires, and I would like to light a row of 16 LEDs independently. I would put a 12F675 and two 4094, if you could send me a code a style of the page in CCS. The issue is that I of those 16 led's, because I want to turn on the led 3-4-5-7-8 for example and then if I press a button turn on the 1-10-11-14-16, for example. It is to address an integrated PLL the MC145151-2 and thus change the frequency of a station from RX to TX. , when pressing the button it would be TX and when releasing it, it would go to RX. and so I change the frequency. Awaiting your reply and help, thank you in advance. Regards.

[@marios_ideas]

Do not have the experience with the microcontroler you plan to use and also never used the shift registers you mention. So not sure how can I help. For programing up to 64 leds I think MAX7219 is also a great option. You then use just one chip rather then cascading two shiftregisters. Controlling what you want to display is also a bit easier. Did not fully understand what code do you want me to send to you

The video looked good but the "music" in the background was so irritating and distracting that I couldn't keep watching. Why do people insist on sabotaging their videos like this? Music, even if it's tasteful, never enhances instructional videos.

[@marios_ideas]

Well you get better over time. I am still putting music background but it volume is waaaay down. Can you check one of my recent videos and let me know if it still puts you off
