I have a common anode 7 segment display and in all the circuit example i see connection from vcc to common anode pins and from segment pins to current limiting resistor to ground.
This way I need 7 resistor. Will it not work if I connect the current limiting resistor from VCC to the common anode and segment pin directly to the ground, as this way I will need only two resistor.
Excuse me if it is a lame question as I am new to elecronics I am getting confused here.
Thanks in Advance,
Ruhul
