Screaming_Rabbit Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 HelloI found this display by surfing on the web:http://www.lcdexceltech.com/lcdpdf/0264.PDFUnfortunely I couldn't find anything about the operating voltage.Does anybody know more about this "DIL E" connention type?Do I guess right, that this display doesn't need a controller, that each bar is activated over individual pins.If yes, could I use this display as a substitude for led graphs in my MidiBoxLC and connect the pins instead of LEDs?Thanks and greetsRoger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Rabbit Posted August 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 I tried to get some information from this company. They didn't even respond to my mail >:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pay_c Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 DIL E? No idea.But normally you can´t use LCDs as a direct substitute for LEDs. The operating stuff is totally different. E.g. some LCDs need negative voltage for contrast and positive voltage with higher current (like 100 mA) for backlight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaming_Rabbit Posted September 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 ... strange, that this is not specified on the datasheet. They write unter driving sheme: "direct". So I thought, who knows, perhaps they could be driven like a substitude for LEDs 8)Thanks for the input pay_cGreets, Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
