    VFD info needed.

    Hey guys,

    Wondering if anyone has used this particular VFD for their carputer and if they have detailed info on it:

    It's located on this website and is model 03602-122-09220
    http://www.cardfive-software.com/vacuum.htm

    If someone has used this I would like any info you could give me on it including pinouts and what type of adapter you used to interface with it. I did a search but didn't find anything for the model number or the company listed on that website.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Jesse

    Looking a bit harder gets you this:

    http://www.ieeinc.com/html/vacuum_fl...splay_mod.html

    Includes full specs and stuff. Its a 44780 type controller, so shouldn't pose any problems at all.

    Thanks a lot for that information Rob. Would $20 for one of these be a decent deal you think?

    Yes. I paid about £50-£60 for my 4x20 VFD.

    So where'd you find a price like that?!?! on the IEE site, they're listed for hundreds of dollars

    I'm also looking for a VFD (probably a 4x40 though)... if you know of any good distributors, please let us know.

    Thanks,
    -Miles
