Description

The
ML9204-xx is a 5 x 7 dot matrix type vacuum fluorescent display tube controller
driver IC which displays characters, numerics and symbols of a maximum of 24
digits x 2 lines. Dot matrix vacuum fluorescent display tube drive signals are
generated by serial data sent from a micro-controller. A display system is
easily realized by internal ROM and RAM for character display. Built-in key scan
for 3-channel encoder type rotary switch and 5 x 6 matrix key switch allow the
user to receive each switch input. The ML9204-xx has low power consumption since
it is made by CMOS process technology. -01 is available as a general-purpose
code. Custom codes are provided on customer's request.
Features
| » |
