Hi all,
Basic question about something that should be simple but isn't working as expected
Why does this diode not work as I imagined it would? When I connect the switch it only lights pin 6 (segment a), but doesn't light the segments connect via this diode. Does the diode have too high a resistance to allow the current to go down all connected pins at the same time? If I flick the switch, these pins light as expected.
