Hi Folks, could somebody help me with connecting my Common Cathode 7 segments displays up please?
I have six of them which are driven by 4026B ic's.
Can I link all the Cathodes together and then have one connection to ground? Or must each one be connected to ground individually.
I have linked pins 3 and 8 of each display together and then linked them to the next pins 3+8 and so on and then finally the last one thought a 10K resistor and to ground.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
