Stellaris Launchpad and TM1638 based seven segment LED display
|
|
TM1638 based display modules are found dirt cheap on ebay and dealxtreme. These displays require only 3 I/O pins of a microcontroller to operate. Although they are 5V displays, Dan showed in this tutorial that they can be used with 3.3V platforms such as Stellaris Launchpad. He has published his TM1638 display driver routines for Stellaris Launchpad on Google code.

I bought several of these a while ago and alone or chained together they make great, easy-to-use displays. A convienient debug message tool as well.
