benjjo / shiftOutDisplay

Last active July 1, 2019 18:09

Shiftbit registers can be a little tricky to setup so I designed this simple Hello World code for doing just that. This example uses a 74HC595 Shift Register in conjunction with a common anode seven segment display. This code is designed to shift the "HIGH" value on the Shift Bit Register from Q0-Q7. This is achieved by sending the values 1,2,4,…

This is an adaptation of the ReadAnalogVoltage tutorial. The idea is to map the analogue input voltage and display that mapped value on a 7 segment display via a shiftbit register.
