ARDUINO NANO INTERFACING WITH TM1637 4 DIGIT 7 SEGMENT DISPLAY

ARDUINO by admin on add comment 4.39K views

TM1637 is a chip for driving 7-segment displays. by Tushar Gandhi

Key Features

  • Use either raw segment values or decimal numbers (with and without leading zero)
  • Set either the whole display or any digit independently
  • Control the brightness
  • Pure software implementation

Hardware Connection

Hardware and Purchase Link

The display module has 4 pins:

TM1637 – 4 DIGIT 7 SEGMEN

<ul><li><strong>VCC - </strong>+5VDC</li><li><strong> GND</strong>&nbsp;- GND  </li><li> <strong>CLK</strong>&nbsp;- Clock; connect to any digital pin on the Arduino </li><li> <strong>DIO</strong>&nbsp;- Data I/O; connect to any digital pin on the Arduino </li></ul>

ARDUINO NANO

Download

Browse the code in GitHub, or grab the latest release directly.

OR

Open Arduino IDE -> Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries

In search menu type TM1637.

It will display all the module related to TM1637.

Select  any one and install it.

Now open new New program.

File -> Esamples -> TM1637 -> TM1637 Test

Select Board Arduino nano. (Also we can select Arduino Uno if we are using it.)

Now upload it.

It will display the numbers, some characters and sign.
