Also included in this table is the binary representation of each hexadecimal character in the **D** columns. For an example, the output for an input of **0** is already in the table. It was said already above but you probably missed it - you turn a segment ON by driving its cathode LOW. Carefully look at the top entry (for a '0') to make sure you understand this. |
