In many of our day to day applications we need to know the approximate amount of content left in the store. Wouldn’t it be great if we know the amount of juice left in a carton or amount of breads left in a box? Just kidding! But in electronics we use these 10 segment light bar to determine the amount of battery charge left, the amount of liquid resin left in 3d printer, the amount of fuel left in the tank etc. These things can not be figured out if they are in an enclosure and can not be physically accessed so we install these 10 segment bar lights to show how much approximately is the content left. This light bar has 10 different LED lights which are individually controlled by 10 input pins provided on the DIP package itself, you can drive this by a physical circuit or you can use it with the help of a microcontroller like Arduino or Raspberry Pi.

Product Description
There are 10 pins on either side of the DIP package 10 segment red light bar in which each pair on opposite sides can be considered as a pair of cathode and anode. You need to supply anode with a positive voltage and connect the cathode to GND to light up that red LED and similarly you need to continue the process for others as well.
