Display board circuits
U902 is the display microcontroller that controls the VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) and
interprets key data. The microcontroller has four peripheral I/O ports that are used for the vari-
ous control and read functions.
Display data is serially transmitted to the microcontroller from the digital board via the TXB
line to the microcontroller PD0 terminal. In a similar manner, key data is serially sent back to
the mother board through the RXB line via PD1. The 4MHz clock for the microcontroller is
generated on the digital board.
DS901 is the VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) module, which can display up to 49 charac-
ters. Each character is organized as a 5
×
7 matrix of dots or pixels and includes a long under-
bar segment to act as a cursor.
The display uses a common multiplexing scheme with each character refreshed in sequence.
U903 and U904 are the grid drivers, and U901 and U905 are the dot drivers. Note that dot
driver and grid driver data is serially transmitted from the microcontroller (PD3 and PC1).
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting information for the various circuits is summarized below. Refer to the com-
ponent layout drawings at the end of Section 6 for component locations.
Display board checks
If the front panel display tests indicate that there is a problem on the display board, use
Table 4-1. See “Principles of operation” for display circuit theory.
