Hey peeps I was wondering if you knew wether a 4 line, 20 character VFD would fit in a 5 1/4" Blanking plate. If so, where could I get a 4Line 20 character (sorry, dunno the correct way to say, 4x20 or 20x4?) cheaply? I don't really want to pay more than £35. TIA.
farnell might be hard on budget... any probs ask TheCheeseMan, he's the LCD/VFD hero... tutorial: http://www.icehardware.net/guides/cheap_vfd/ good luck, im gonna do one soon
I suggest you ask lots of specific questions BEFORE you buy one. Lotta ppl find a "bargain" then come here looking to make it work, only to find out it wont. (happened to me) So ask first then buy it. A cheap display that wont do what ya want isnt a very good deal, no matter what the price.
