About this product
The 74HC48 is a CMOS BCD-to-seven-segment decoder/driver that converts a 4-bit BCD input into the segment signals needed to show digits 0 to 9 on a seven-segment display. Its active-high outputs are designed for common-cathode displays. It is commonly used in counters, meters and digital readouts driven by BCD outputs.

Where can I buy 74HC48 BCD to 7-Segment Decoder/Driver IC (Common Cathode) in Egypt?
74HC48 BCD to 7-Segment Decoder/Driver IC (Common Cathode) is available from Most Electronics and Circuits Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I use the 74HC48 with a common-anode display?
No. The 74HC48 has active-high outputs made for common-cathode displays. For common-anode displays, use the 74HC47, which has active-low outputs.
Do I need current-limiting resistors with the 74HC48?
Yes. Each segment output needs a series resistor between the IC output and the segment LED, sized for the display current and the supply voltage used.
