DI-8884A High Voltage Cathode Decoder/Driver
Direct Replacement for National DM-8884A
Features:
9 Reliable Dielectric Isolation Process
General Description:
The DI-8884A is designed to decode four
lines of BCD input and drive seven segment
digits of gas-filled readout displays. Two
separate inputs are provided for driving the
decimal point and comma cathodes.
9 Current Sink Outputs
9 High Output Breakdown Voltage
9 Low Input Load Current
9 Intended For Multiplex Operation
9 Replacement For National DM-8884A
9 Standard 18-pin DIP Package
All outputs consist of switchable and
programmable current sinks, which provide
constant current to the tube cathodes, even
with high tube anode supply tolerance.
Output currents may be varied over the 0.2
to 1.2 mA range for multiplex operation.
The output current is adjusted by connecting
an external program resistor (Rp) from Vcc to
the program input.
