LOGICAL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION

Module Block Diagram
Figure 1 illustrates the major components of the serial option Daystar Nova module. The module provides
means for an external viewing angle adjustment potentiometer (V
BIAS
Adj.) at Pin 4, and connections for optional
RESET and self–test switches at Pins 3 and 5. The external viewing angle adjustment potentiometer should be
connected to the same +5 Volt supply as the display module. RESET and TEST pull down to ground to
activate the function. All three inputs may be left open if not used. The V
BIAS
test point is used at the factory to
preset the viewing angle.
