HDLA-3416 is a 5x7 dot matrix display with four 0.27" tall characters, driven by an on board CMOS IC. The IC stores and decodes 7 bit ASCII data and displays it with an easy to read 5x7 font. Multiplexing circuitry and drivers are included in the IC to allow the display to interface simple with bus based microprocessor systems. The address and data inputs of the display can be directly connected to the microprocessor address and data busses.
