Good Morning all.I have just completed a 6pack display board and given it a test.The boards seem to be communicating, but not displaying the right things. '1' look like 'r', '0' look like a '6' with no bottom, but has a decimal, '2' looks like '4' with decimal point, '4'looks like '2' with no bottom, '3' looks like backwards '4' with a decimal point. I think you get the picture. I have tried multiple displays, all with the same result. tried re-flashing, with all different .hex codes. It is a CA setup with BC548 transisters, and Kingbright SA36-11GWA. Also, when changing Base Brightness, everything goes crazy.Many thanks in advance.Rob Fonhof.PS: I found out what happens when you put in an ATTINY 2313 the wrong way. SMOKE!

Good Morning all.Live and learn by mistakes.I had a hunch regarding my problem. Everthing looked too perfect as far as wrong goes. Too consistent. So I thought maybe there is a problem with the pin allocation. What I did was swap the 2 rows around. Hey Presto! Works perfectly.What had I done?I had used a 90degree header pin exiting from the front of the displays. What I should have done was exit from the back using straight pins.At least now if someone does the same thing I can say, "Why don't you try this?"RegardsRobert.

Hi,I have also similar experience with displaying nonsence.I see following possible reasons:1) Invalid Atmel chip - I bought more than 6 chips and one especialy was causing these types of problems, everything else was always ok (programming, CID selection...), I have no idea why this happened, but I replaced the chip and it works fine2) You have 7-segment display with different pin placement3) You have wrong wiring between the DSP board and displayRada
