Plasma Panel Display Modules
240 Character Display with Drive Electronics
Controller and Parallel Interface
FEATURES
• 240 (6 x 40) alphanumeric characters (5 x 7 dot matrix).
• Compatible with IEE 3402-08-240N.
• Only + 5 and + 11.5 to 30.0 VDC required.
• ASCII character set (optional character sets available).
• Efficient parallel interface.
• Wide viewing angle (150°).
• Rugged design/slim profile.
• Flicker free refresh.
• Editing functions.
• High brightness.
The APD-240M021 plasma display module consists of a multiplexed DC plasma display, drive circuitry and switching voltage
converter mated with an intelligent, microprocessor-based controller board. The resulting assembly interfaces easily to micro-
processor-based systems and requires only readily available low voltages for power. Vishay Dale’s patented open construction
display technology assures a stable flicker free screen.
Interfacing is a basic 8 bit parallel ASCII interface with some dedicated control lines and requires minimum handshaking.

accordance with the Function Summary Chart
signals are formatted in accordance with the
standard ASCII which allow control functions to be included in the character code matrix table. Functions such as advancing
the cursor position or selecting the end-of-line mode are implemented with a single 8 bit control word.
