What Could Be Preventing My 7 Segment Circuit from Running in Multisim?

[tqcenter2002]

Hi All,
I'm a student and I work with Multisim - I want to create a Simple 7 segment circuit using the Multisim
I have created the circuit step by step looking at a circuit in a datasheet of the 7 segment - and it didn't run at all. Why? (see picture attached)

Can someone help me with that please?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

U2 - common anode or kathode?

In your simulation, when you sequence the switches, what output voltages do you get from the IC?

Hello,

There could be several reasons why your circuit is not running. It is important to troubleshoot and identify the specific issue in order to find a solution. Here are a few things you can check:

1. Check your connections: Make sure all components are connected correctly and in the right orientation. Sometimes a simple mistake in wiring can cause a circuit to not work.

2. Check your power supply: Make sure your power supply is providing the correct voltage and is connected properly to the circuit.

3. Check your components: Ensure that all components are functioning properly. A faulty component can prevent the circuit from running.

4. Check for short circuits: Make sure there are no unintended connections or short circuits in your circuit. This can cause the circuit to not work as intended.

5. Check your simulation settings: If you are using a simulation software like Multisim, make sure your simulation settings are correct and that you have selected the appropriate components.

If you have checked all of these and are still unable to get your circuit to run, try reaching out to your instructor or a more experienced colleague for assistance. Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes can help identify the issue. Good luck!
