Re: VFD Questions



Hi Pedro.

You need the RS232 async version. CMOS would need a MAX232 type convertor.
These are more ideal for microcontroller based systems.

Subject: [ukha_d] VFD Questions


I'm trying to decide which VFD to buy. I have decided on the size but am
wondering what type of connection I need to be able to connect it to my
serial port on my PC. The three options are:

Parallel, Asynchronous Serial
(RS-232C level)

OR

Parallel, Asynchronous or Synchronous Serial
(C-MOS level)

OR

Synchronous or Asynchronous Serial
(C-MOS level)

Anyone know which connection type I need to connect it to a serial port on
my PC?

Cheers
Pedro
