Adafruit 1.2 4-Digit 7-Segment Display w/I2C Backpack - Green
Discontinued
The Adafruit 1.2" 4-Digit 7-Segment Display with I2C Backpack in green makes it easy to add a large, bright numeric display to any microcontroller project. The backpack handles all LED multiplexing and driving via I2C, so you only need two data pins to control a full 4-digit display.
The HT16K33 driver chip provides constant-current output for consistent brightness, 1/16-step dimming control, and a built-in oscillator — no external components needed. Address-selection jumpers allow up to eight 7-segment displays on a single I2C bus.
Key Features
- HT16K33 I2C Driver – Built-in multiplexing, constant-current drive, and 1/16-step dimming
- Simple I2C Interface – Only two pins required, with address jumpers for up to 8 displays on one bus
- Large 1.2" Green Digits – Bright and easily readable from across a room
- Arduino and Raspberry Pi Libraries – Well-documented libraries for quick setup
- Compact Backpack Design – Driver mounts directly behind the display
