Not compatible with AlfaZeta 7-segment, but...

A project log for Sig7Seg - controller for mechanical 7 segment

An i2c controller board for electromechanical seven segment displays like Signalex "02L" series flip displays

These large AlfaZeta 7-segment flip displays do look similar to the ones I had been using, but turns you control the AlfaZeta ones with only two wires and reverse the polarity of them to get them to flip. Unfortunately, this makes the standard boards created here incompatible with them. I've got some thoughts on how to make it work as well, but going to require a different PCB layout. You should check out Rachel's video of how she got these working with a relays.
