We see them on our alarm clocks, ovens, and microwaves. By adding more segments to each digit you can display more than just numbers! These fourteen-segment digits allow you to display all sorts of numbers, characters, and symbols. With \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/qwiic\"\u003eQwiic\u003c\/a\u003e, simply plug it in and go. No soldering, no figuring out which is SDA or SCL, and no voltage regulation or translation required!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe SparkFun Qwiic Alphanumeric Starter Kit comes with two displays, one red and one white. Also included in this kit are 10 standoffs and screws for mounting as well as two Qwiic cables to get up and running as fast as possible. With a wide variety of Qwiic enabled microcontroller boards available we decided not to include one so you could choose the one that fits best with your current project needs. This is the only part you need to supply yourself, so be sure to check the \u003cem\u003eHookup Accessories\u003c\/em\u003e below for some suggestions!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sparkfun\/SparkFun_Alphanumeric_Display_Arduino_Library\"\u003eSparkFun Alphanumeric Display Arduino library\u003c\/a\u003e makes printing strings to the display as easy as calling the print() function. With this library, you'll be able to send I\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eC commands to the VK16K33 LED driver chip to light up segments (including the decimal point or colon) and even scroll your string across the display. You can download the library through the Arduino library manager by searching 'SparkFun Alphanumeric Display' or you can get the GitHub repo as a .zip file and install the library from there.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe VK16K33 also supports I\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eC address configuration. Simply close a combination of the address jumpers on the back and you can communicate with up to four displays on the same bus. Our slim board design also features detachable standoff holes, vertical Qwiic connectors, and internal mounting holes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003chr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/qwiic\"\u003eSparkFun Qwiic Connect System\u003c\/a\u003e is an ecosystem of I\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eC sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections mean you canÃ¢â�¬â�¢t hook it up wrong.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003chr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"center-block text-center\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.sparkfun.com\/tutorials\/1209\" class=\"btn btn-default\"\u003eGet Started with the Qwiic Alphanumeric Display Hookup Guide\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/18565\"\u003eQwiic Alphanumeric Display - White\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/16916\"\u003eQwiic Alphanumeric Display - Red\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/17259\"\u003e100mm Qwiic cable\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/17260\"\u003e50mm Qwiic cable\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/10927\"\u003eStandoff - Nylon (4-40; 3\/8\"; 10 pack)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/products\/10453\"\u003eScrew - Phillips Head (1\/4\", 4-40, 10 pack)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSparkFun Qwiic Alphanumeric Display Features\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eOperating Voltage: 3.3V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrated RC oscillator\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaximum display segment numbers: 128 patterns\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e13Ã�â��3 matrix key scan circuit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e16-step dimming circuit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eI\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eC Addresses: 0x70 (0x71, 0x72, 0x73)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2x Qwiic connectors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2x Wall Mounting Points\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDocuments:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/c\/7\/2\/8\/a\/Qwiic_Alphanumeric_Display.pdf\"\u003eSchematic\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/c\/f\/f\/7\/c\/Qwiic_Alphanumeric_Display.zip\"\u003eEagle Files\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/4\/a\/3\/8\/3\/16919-SparkFun-Qwiic-Alphanumeric-Display_BoardOutline.png\"\u003eBoard Dimensions\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.sparkfun.com\/tutorials\/1209\"\u003eHookup Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.sparkfun.com\/assets\/c\/8\/7\/2\/5\/VK16K33Datasheet.pdf\"\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/a\u003e (VK16K33)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sparkfun.com\/qwiic\"\u003eQwiic Info Page\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sparkfun\/SparkFun_Alphanumeric_Display_Arduino_Library\"\u003eArduino Library\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/sparkfun\/Qwiic_Alphanumeric_Display_Breakout\"\u003eGitHub Hardware Repo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVideos\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"flex-video-wrap clearfix\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"flex-video widescreen img\"\u003e \u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iN5gEp2m4iY\/?autohide=1\u0026amp;border=0\u0026amp;wmode=opaque\u0026amp;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"flex-video-wrap clearfix\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"flex-video widescreen img\"\u003e \u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qhpRGrULrqg\/?autohide=1\u0026amp;border=0\u0026amp;wmode=opaque\u0026amp;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen width=\"560\" height=\"315\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"sparkfun-10","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40054683500629,"sku":"18624:KIT-18624:spark","price":3465.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1034\/1611\/products\/18624-SparkFun_Qwiic_Alphanumeric_Kit-01.jpg?v=1651341879","url":"https:\/\/www.tanotis.com\/products\/sparkfun-qwiic-alphanumeric-starter-kit-red-and-white","provider":"Tanotis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
