This is a 13 mm single character 0.56 inch 7-segment common cathode display. It is designed such that all the anode pins of the LED are connected to Vcc. The viewing distance can be up to 7m and the display color is red. The drive IC has to sink enough current through it to glow the respective LED. Seven segment Display is commonly used along with microcontrollers or display drivers in applications where a bigger and a brighter display are needed. Alternative to this, is the 7-segment common cathode display.
