  1. Binary number and display it as four hexadecimal digits on the 7-segment LED. The term “decoder” is applied because it converts the binary input to the proper combination of outputs to form characters on the 7-segment display that have meaning to us humans. Note the Basys3 board has four 7-segment displays and 16 slide switches.
  2. Hexadecimal-to-Octal Converter with Display Input: 1-digit Hexadecimal Number represented by 16 input points Output: 2-digit Octal Number represented by 8 output points Logic Function The circuit will convert the hexadecimal input into its octal equivalent. Both the input and output must be displayed using a seven-segment display.
  3. We want to design a circuit which will take four binary inputs and print hexadecimal number equivalent to that binary number. This circuit is called seven segment hex decoder. There are 16 digits in hexadecimal number which are 0-9 numbers and A-F alphabets. We will use common cathode display.
  4. Circuit design Relay Improved HEX to 7 segment decoder created by Matthieu.Dranem with Tinkercad.

Today seven segment displays are widely used in almost all electronic circuits. It can display number from 0 to 9 and some characters. In this display 7 segments of LED is arranged such as it can display these information. Each segment is denoted by small letters. One terminal of all those LED is common, so it can be of two types, common anode and common cathode. Arrangement of segments and both types of displays are mentioned in figure below.

This is a common anode 7-segment display. In this display anode of all LED is common and it is connected to positive voltage. Cathode of all LED is responsible to display numbers or some alphabet. we give 0 volt to a particular cathode according to what we want to display.

This is my Warnings: A Digital Decoder IC, is a device which converts one digital format into another and one of the most commonly used devices for doing this is called the Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) to 7-Segment Display Decoder. 7-segment LED (Light Emitting Diode) or LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) type displays, provide a very convenient way of displaying.

This is a common cathode 7-segment display. In this display cathode of all LED is common and it is connected to zero voltage. Anfode of all LED is responsible to display numbers or some alphabet. we give positive voltage to a particular Anode according to what we want to display.

Now, if we have to display 0 on the display then we will keep the ‘g’ segment off and other segment on. We want to design a circuit which will take four binary inputs and print hexadecimal number equivalent to that binary number. This circuit is called seven segment hex decoder. There are 16 digits in hexadecimal number which are 0-9 numbers and A-F alphabets. We will use common cathode display. See this table.

7-segment HEX decoder truth table

7-segment HEX decoder circuit will turn on and off the segment for displaying a particular information. Here in this table ‘1’means positive voltage and ‘0’ means 0 volt. We are using a common cathode 7-segment display so ‘1’ means a particular segment is on and ‘0’ means a particular segment is off.

We can design the whole circuit by creating Boolean expression and circuit diagram one by one for each segment.

1. For segment ‘a’

Equation for this table is, a(A,B,C,D) = Σ(0,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,14,15)

7. For segment ‘g’

Equation for segment g is, g(A,B,C,D) = Σ(2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,13,14,15)

Verilog Hex to Seven Segment Display


We will be moving on to write slightly more complex example, this time a hex to seven segment encoder. Basically LED number is displayed with 7 segments.
The hexadecimal to 7 segment encoder has 4 bit input and 7 output. Depending upon the input number, some of the 7 segments are displayed. The seven segments are represented as a,b,c,d,e,f,g. A high on one of these segements make it display. For example to write 1 we need to display segments b and C.

7 Segment Hex Code

The 7 segment display also has a decimal point dp.
The figure below explains this Let write this example making use of the verilog case statement

Note that we had to assign out as a register in
reg out;
In our case, it was not required because we had only one statement. We now suggest that you write a test bench for this code and verify that it works. If you have sifficulty, you can check it with following test bench

Exercise

7 segment hex code chart 1. Change the above hex to BCD verilog code so that it take negative logic. A segment is on when it gets 0. A segment is off when it gets logic 1.
