DESCRIPTION The DLR/DLO/DLG3416 is a four character 5 x 7 dot matrix display module with a built-in CMOS integrated circuit. The integrated circuit contains memory, ASCII ROM decoder, multiplexing circuitry and drivers. Data entry is asynchronous and can be random. A display system can be built using any number of DLX3416s since each character can be addressed independently and will continue to display the character last stored until replaced by another. System interconnection is very straightforward. The least significant two address bits (A0, A1) are normally connected to the like-named inputs of all displays in the system. With four chip enables, four displays (16 characters) can easily be interconnected without a decoder. Data lines are connected to all DLX3416s directly and in parallel, as is the write line (WR). The display will then behave as a write-only memory. The cursor function causes all dots of a character position to illuminate at half brightness. The cursor is not a character, and when removed the previously displayed character will reappear. The DLX3416 has several features superior to competitive devices. True "blanking" allows the designer to dim the display for more flexibility of display presentation. Finally the CLR clear function will clear the cursor RAM and the ASCII character RAM simultaneously. 2000 Infineon Technologies Corp. * Optoelectronics Division * San Jose, CA www.infineon.com/opto * 1-888-Infineon (1-888-463-4636) OSRAM Opto Semiconductors GmbH & Co.

Flashing Circuit Using a 555 and Flashing (Blanking) Timing Loading Data Setting the chip enable (CE1, CE2, CE3, CE4) to their true state will enable loading. The desired data code (D0-D6) and digit address (A0, A1) must be held stable during the write cycle for storing new data. VCC=5.0 V Data entry may be asynchronous and random.

All illuminated dots will be turned off within one complete display multiplex cycle, 1.0 msec minimum. The clear function will clear both the ASCII RAM and the cursor RAM. 7 555 Timer 3 6 4 5 Loading Cursor R2 100 K C3 10 F C4 0.01 F Setting the chip enables (CE1, CE2, CE3, CE4) and cursor select (CU) to their true state will enable cursor loading. A write (WR) pulse will now store or remove a cursor into the digit location addressed by A0, A1, as defined in data entry. A cursor will be stored if D0=1 and will removed if D0=0. The cursor (CU) pulse width should not be less than the write (WR) pulse or erroneous data may appear in the display. 1 0 Blanking Pulse Width 50% Duty Factor ~ ~ 500 ms ~ ~ 2 Hz Blanking Frequency If the cursor is not required, the cursor enable signal (CUE) may be tied low to disable the cursor function. For a flashing cursor, simply pulse CUE. If the cursor has been loaded to any or all positions in the display, then CUE will control whether the cursor(s) or the characters will appear. CUE does not affect the contents of cursor memory. Figure 5. Dimming Circuit Using a 556 VCC=5.0 V Display Blanking Blank the display by loading a blank or space into each digit of the display or by using the (BL) display blank input. R2 47 K Setting the (BL) input low does not affect the contents of either data or cursor memory. A flashing display can be achieved by pulsing (BL). A flashing circuit can be constructed using a 555 a stable multivibrator. Figure 4 illustrates a circuit in which varying R2 (100K~10K) will have a flash rate of 1.0 Hz~10 Hz.

The dimming signal frequency should be 2.5 kHz or higher. Dimming the display also reduces power consumption. C1 4700 pF An example of a simple dimming circuit using a 556 is illustrated in Figure 5.

Additionally, the LEDs may cause transients in the power supply line while they change display states. The common practice is to place .01 mF capacitors close to the displays across VCC and GND, one for each display, and one 10 mF capacitor for every second display. An alternative to soldering and cleaning the display modules is to use sockets. Standard pin DIP sockets .600" wide with 0.100" centers work well for single displays. Multiple display assemblies are best handled by longer SIP sockets or DIP sockets when available for uniform package alignment. Socket manufacturers are Aries Electronics, Inc., Frenchtown, NJ; Garry Manufacturing, New Brunswich, NJ; Robinson-Nugent, New Albany, IN; and Samtec Electronic Hardware, New Albany, IN. ESD Protection For further information refer to Appnote 22 at www.infineon.com/ opto. The silicon gate CMOS IC of the DLX3416 is quite resistant to ESD damage and capable of withstanding discharges greater than 2.0 kV. However, take all the standard precautions, normal for CMOS components. These include properly grounding personnel, tools, tables, and transport carriers that come in contact with unshielded parts. If these conditions are not, or cannot be met, keep the leads of the device shorted together or the parts in anti-static packaging. Optical Considerations The 0.270" high characters of the DLX3416 gives readability up to eight feet. Proper filter selection enhances readability over this distance. Filters enhance the contrast ratio between a lit LED and the character background intensifying the discrimination of different characters. The only limitation is cost. Take into consideration the ambient lighting environment for the best cost/ benefit ratio for filters. Soldering Considerations The DLX3416 can be hand soldered with SN63 solder using a grounded iron set to 260C. Incandescent (with almost no green) or fluorescent (with almost no red) lights do not have the flat spectral response of sunlight. Plastic band-pass filters are an inexpensive and effective way to strengthen contrast ratios. Wave soldering is also possible following these conditions: Preheat that does not exceed 93C on the solder side of the PC board or a package surface temperature of 85C. Water soluble organic acid flux (except carboxylic acid) or rosin-based RMA flux without alcohol can be used. The DLR3416 is a standard red display and should be matched with long wavelength pass filter in the 600 nm to 620 nm range. The DLO3416 is a high efficiency red display and should be matched with a long wavelength pass filter in the 470 nm to 590 range. The DLG3416 should be matched with a yellow-green band-pass filter that peaks at 565 nm. For displays of multiple colors, neutral density gray filters offer the best compromise. Wave temperature of 245C 5C with a dwell between 1.5 sec. to 3.0 sec. Exposure to the wave should not exceed temperatures above 260C for five seconds at 0.063" below the seating plane. The packages should not be immersed in the wave. Post Solder Cleaning Procedures Additional contrast enhancement is gained by shading the displays. Plastic band-pass filters with built-in louvers offer the next step up in contrast improvement. Plastic filters can be improved further with anti-reflective coatings to reduce glare. The trade-off is fuzzy characters. Mounting the filters close to the display reduces this effect. Take care not to overheat the plastic filter by allowing for proper air flow. The least offensive cleaning solution is hot D.I. water (60C) for less than 15 minutes. Addition of mild saponifiers is acceptable. Do not use commercial dishwasher detergents. For faster cleaning, solvents may be used. Carefully select any solvent as some may chemically attack the nylon package. Maximum exposure should not exceed two minutes at elevated temperatures. Acceptable solvents are TF (trichorotribluorethane), TA, 111 Trichloroethane, and unheated acetone. Optimal filter enhancements are gained by using circular polarized, anti-reflective, band-pass filters. Circular polarizing further enhances contrast by reducing the light that travels through the filter and reflects back off the display to less than 1%. Note: Acceptable commercial solvents are: Basic TF, Arklone, P. Genesolv, D. Genesolv DA, Blaco-Tron TF, Blaco-Tron TA, and Freon TA. Several filter manufacturers supply quality filter materials. Some of them are: Panelgraphic Corporation, W. Caldwell, NJ; SGL Homalite, Wilmington, DE; 3M Company, Visual Products Division, St. Paul, MN; Polaroid Corporation, Polarizer Division, Cambridge, MA; Marks Polarized Corporation, Deer Park, NY, Hoya Optics, Inc., Fremont, CA. Unacceptable solvents contain alcohol, methanol, methylene chloride, ethanol, TP35, TCM, TMC, TMS+, TE, or TES. Since many commercial mixtures exist, contact a solvent vendor for chemical composition information. Some major solvent manufacturers are: Allied Chemical Corporation, Specialty Chemical Division, Morristown, NJ; Baron-Blakeslee, Chicago, IL; Dow Chemical, Midland, MI; E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Co., Wilmington, DE. One last note on mounting filters: recessing displays and bezel assemblies is an inexpensive way to provide a shading effect in overhead lighting situations. Several Bezel manufacturers are: R.M.F. Products, Batavia, IL; Nobex Components, Griffith Plastic Corp., Burlingame, CA; Photo Chemical Products of California, Santa Monica, CA; .E.E.-Atlas, Van Nuys, CA.
