HT16523 -- 5x7 Dot Character VFD Controller & Driver

General Description

The HT16523 device is a dot matrix Vacuum Fluorescent Display, VFD, controller/driver which displays characters, numerics and symbols. Dot matrix VFD driving signals are received via a 3-line serial interface driven by an externally connected microcontroller. The display data is stored in the internal ROM and RAM for character and symbol display.
