[Solved] Strobing to Light Four 7-Segment Displays; Not Working Properly
so got little 7-segment bubble display 4 digits sparkfun. got 1 of shift registers ( 74hc595n ). i've had success in past getting these work together. have issue. i'm trying timer using these. coded number, 300, scetch 4 different values: a=0,b=3,c=0,d=0. after squashing bugs, works.... except when reaches 0267, digits except last go blank (it remains on 8) , stops counting. thinkng arduino (uno) going bad after abuse sent through, uploaded code new(er) uno. still acts same. seems though stops executing code after time. the 2 conditions in loop are code: [select] now=millis(); while(millis() - < 1000){ and code: [select] seconds = (a*1000)+(b*100)+(c*10)+d; if(seconds>0){ neither of 2 designed stop execution of code. code: [select] // define numbers const int numbers[] = {0b11111100,0b01100000,0b11011010,0b11110010,0b01100110,0b10110110,0b00111110,0b11100000,0b11111110,0b11100110}; // 0-9 // set enable pin const int en = 10; // set low when ...
