Description

The 3.3 V HCMS-39xx family is similar to the 5.0 V

HCMS-29xx family, except it operates at a lower

operating voltage. Package dimensions and pin outs

are exactly the same for both families. The product

has been thoroughly characterized and stringent

reliability tested to ensure that the product is of high

quality.

Similar to the 5.0 V platform, this family product is a

high performance, easy to use dot matrix display

driven by on-board CMOS IC. Each display can be

directly interfaced with a microprocessor, thus

eliminating the need for cumbersome interface com-

ponents. The serial IC interface allows higher character

count information displays with a minimum of data

lines. The easy to read 5x7 pixel format allows the

display of upper case, lower case, Katakana, and

custom user-defined characters. These displays are

stackable in the x- and y-directions, making them ideal

for high character count displays.
