EL512.256-H Series Operations Manual (020-0354-00A)

 

 

Control basics 

The EL panel has 512 transparent column electrodes crossing 256 row 
electrodes in an X-Y fashion.  Light is emitted when an AC voltage is applied at 
a row-column intersection.  The display operation is based on the symmetric, 
line at a time data addressing scheme which is synchronized by the external 
VS,  HS, and VCLK input signals. The internal control signals and the high 
voltage pulses for the column and row drivers are generated

 

internally by the 

control electronics. All control signal

 

inputs are HCT compatible with pull-up 

resistors. 

Power Input 

The required supply voltages for the display are +5 Vdc

 

(Vcc1) for the logic and 

+11…+30 Vdc input (Vcc2) for the

 

integrated DC/DC converter. The high 

voltages needed

 

for driving the display are generated by the DC/DC

 

converter 

from the Vcc2 input voltage. The input voltages

 

can be connected either 

through J1 or J2. 

Signal Inputs 

Connector J1 contains input for the video signals,

 

connector J2 contains two 

control inputs and connector

 

J3 contains input for external luminance control. 

The

 

signals on J2 and J3 that are not used can be left

 

disconnected. 

Optional Grounding 

In order to improve the EMC properties of the display

 

system, there is an 

option for the customer to tie together

 

the signal ground of the display and 

the chassis of the

 

user device. For this purpose the four corner mounting

 

nuts 

are each connected to the signal ground with

 

10 nF / 50 V capacitors. When 

using this option, please

 

be aware of the possible risk of lowered isolation 

strength

 

of the device and possible generation ground loops.
