CMOS logic signal VFD module


Easy Setup

Try our Y Series evaluation kit and avoid the headaches of wiring and countless hours searching for the one misspelled variable. All you have to do with the Y Series evaluation kit is to connect the cable from the VFD module to the PC, connect the power cable, and run the CUE-Y software, it’s that simple.


 

Color Filters Available

Noritake Itron offers 5 colors (gray, blue, green, aqua, and rose) in 11 of popular VFD module display sizes. Additional colors and sizes are available by request.

Color filters available in various colors and sizes
 

Available in CMOS and RS232 logic signal

Choose between CMOS logic signal, XXX-Y1A-XXXXX and RS232 logic signal, XXX-Y100-XXXXX. Please use the corresponding cable that comes with your kit.

 

Record and Play

One of many useful benefits of the CUE-Y is the record feature. CUE-Y can record all actions into a routine. Once the routine is complete, push play and watch the routine executed on to the display.



 

Export CUE-Y commands

You evaluated the Y Series using the CUE-Y and now you want to incorporate the routines into your device. CUE-Y can export recorded routines in C and/or Assembly programming languages, hexadecimal, text, and in CUE-Y native format. Once the file is exported, import the file directly or copy the code into your program.


 

Sample C/C++ codes

For the programmer who prefers evaluating the Y Series with the microcontroller, sample C/C++ code for PIC controller is included in the CD. Microcontroller not included.

Vibrant display

VFD is an emissive display and compared to the LCD, VFD has higher brightness, higher contrast ratio, wide viewing angle, and doesn’t rely on ambient light source.


 

Selectable font sizes

All new highlight function
