Plasma Panel Display Modules

240 x 64 Graphics Display with ASCII Input Controller,

DC/DC Converter and Drive Circuitry

The APD-240G064 is a dot matrix graphic display with an

array of 240 x 64 pixels available. The module is composed of a

highly reliable DC plasma display, ASCII input graphics control-

ler, DC converter and drive circuitry which are assembled to form

a rugged, slim profile display sub-system.

Interface to the APD-240G064 is through a parallel or serial inter-

face. The interface allows for efficient handshaking and flow of

bi-directional data. Vishay Dale's patented open construction

display technology assures a stable, flicker free screen.

FEATURES

• 240 x 64 pixel array for bright and vivid graphics

• Parallel interface or RS-232 serial interface

• Powerful software commands make display integration

simple and efficient

• + 5 to + 24VDC display voltage
