The DS1426 is a 4-digit alphanumeric display module complete with built-in CMOS driving circuitry. The onboard integrated circuit contains an ASCII decoder, multiplexer, memory and LED driver. Inputs are TTL compatible. Each digit consists of 16 bar-segments plus a decimal point segment for enhanced punctuation. A single 5V supply is the only power required by the module. The device is end-stackable enabling a display system to be built using any number of units, since each character in any device can be addressed independently and will continue to display the character last written until it is replaced by another.
