    Dear guys,

    What is the best way to display the times in the seven segment on a computer? Is it possible to use a parallel port pins connected to the seven segment display?

    Hi Amith

    Computers generally communicate serially; so for this you will need a device that could make a serial connection between the microcontroller and computer. The best method is to make use of controller's USART. Also to connect this with the computer's USB port, you will need a USB to TTL device. Now further you will need a serial monitor software installed in your computer that will help you see what the controller sends.

    This might help :)
