I asked this question elsewhere: How do I switch a common anode 7 segment display with a common cathode 7 segment display (like the one here:https://www.adafruit.com/products/813) on a circuit I am working on? Is it as simple as switching the power source's positive and negative leads? (I haven't built the circuit yet - I'm trying to make it in a CDS/Circuit Design Simulator first to make sure that it works but I can't find CC vs. CA displays)
The answer I received to my question of "Is it as simple as switching the power source's positive and negative leads?" was: In some cases that would be all you need to do. You would also need to modify the control of the segments to reflect that.
What about this though (My response - I need this answered please):
In that case, the following is the circuit I am trying to base mine off of - any idea if it would still work? I feel as if the IC wouldn't work properly.
Link to circuit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-DIY-AT8...097680?hash=item23547966d0:g:ZYwAAOSwDNdVnoZB
If the link doesn't work, just try searching AT89C2051 on ebay and make sure to go to the one with six bits.
Also, Thanks!
