IC 4026 – 7-Segment Display Driver with Counter (Pack of 2)

Introduction

The IC 4026 is a decade counter with an integrated 7-segment display driver, commonly used in digital counting and display applications. It eliminates the need for a separate BCD to 7-segment decoder, making it a preferred choice for numerical display circuits. This IC can count from 0 to 9 and directly drive common cathode 7-segment displays.


Pinout and Pin Configuration

Pin No. Pin Name Description
1 Clock (CLK) Input clock signal to increment the count
2 Clock Inhibit (CI) Disables counting when HIGH
3 Display Enable (DE) Enables or disables the 7-segment display
4 Display Enable Output (DEO) Output for enabling cascaded displays
5 Carry Out (CO) Carry-out signal for cascading multiple ICs
6 Segment F Output (F) Drives segment ‘F’ of 7-segment display
7 Segment G Output (G) Drives segment ‘G’ of 7-segment display
8 Ground (GND) Power ground
9 Segment B Output (B) Drives segment ‘B’ of 7-segment display
10 Segment A Output (A) Drives segment ‘A’ of 7-segment display
11 Segment C Output (C) Drives segment ‘C’ of 7-segment display
12 Segment D Output (D) Drives segment ‘D’ of 7-segment display
13 Segment E Output (E) Drives segment ‘E’ of 7-segment display
14 Segment DP Output (DP) Drives decimal point (DP) of display
15 Reset (RST) Resets count to 0 when HIGH
16 VCC Power supply (3V – 15V)

Working Principle

The IC 4026 receives clock pulses (Pin 1) to increment the count. The internal decade counter converts this into a 7-segment output, driving segments A to G. The count can be reset using the Reset pin (Pin 15), and the Display Enable (Pin 3) controls whether the output is active. The Carry-Out (Pin 5) is used for cascading multiple counters.
