74LS47 Description
74LS47 is a Low Power Schottky BCD to 7-Segment Decoder/Driver consisting of NAND gates, input buffers and 7 AND-OR-INVERT gates. They offer direct active low, high sink current outputs for driving indicators. Seven NAND gates and one driver are connected in pairs to make BCD data and its complement available to the seven AND-OR-INVERT gates.

74LS47 Application Circuits
74LS47 has integral ripple-blanking facilities, but does not include data latches.
Figure 1 shows the functional diagrams and pin designations of these devices, each of which is housed in a 16-pin package.
Figure 1. Functional diagram of the 74LS47 BCD-to-seven-segment decoder/driver ICs.
The 74LS47 has active-low outputs designed to drive a common-anode LED display via external current-limiting resistors (Rx) as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Basic way of using a 74LS47 IC to drive a common-anode LED display.
Note: Figure 1 shows that each of these ICs has three input 'control' terminals, which are designated LT (Lamp Test), BI/RBO, and RBI. The LT terminal drives all display outputs when the terminal is connected to logic 0 with the RBO terminal open or to logic 1.
When the BI/RBO terminal is pulled low, all outputs are cleared; this pin also functions as a ripple-blanking output terminal. Figure 3 shows how to connect the ripple-blanking terminals to the leading zero suppression on the first three digits of the four-digit display.

FAQ
- What is the function of IC 7447?
BCD Seven Segment Display Using IC 7447. A decoder is one kind of combinational logic circuit that connects the binary data from n-input lines toward 2n output lines. The IC7447 IC is a BCD to seven segment decoder.
|
- What type of display will the 74LS47 drive?
Common-anode LED display. The 74LS47 has active-low outputs designed for driving a common-anode LED display via external current-limiting resistors (Rx), as shown in Figure 2. FIGURE 2. Basic way of using a 74LS47 IC to drive a common-anode LED display.
|
- What is BCD to 7 segment decoder?
BCD to seven segment decoder is a circuit used to convert the input BCD into a form suitable for the display. It has four input lines (A, B, C and D) and 7 output lines (a, b, c, d, e, f and g).
|
- How do you display a 7 segment?
The displays common pin is generally used to identify which type of 7-segment display it is. As each LED has two connecting pins, one called the “Anode” and the other called the “Cathode”, there are therefore two types of LED 7-segment display called: Common Cathode (CC) and Common Anode (CA).
