0.200" 4-Character 5 x 7 Dot Matrix
Alphanumeric Intelligent Display® Devices with Memory/Decoder/Driver
Lead (Pb) Free Product - RoHS Compliant
DLR2416, DLO2416, DLG2416
Description
The DLR/DLO/DLG2416 is a four digit 5 x 7 dot matrix display module with a built-in CMOS integrated circuit.This display is X/Y stackable.
The integrated circuit contains memory, ASCII ROM decoder, multiplexing circuitry and drivers. Data entry is asynchronous and can be random. A display system can be built using any number of DLX2416s since each digit can be
addressed independently and will continue to display the character last stored until replaced by another.
System interconnection is very straightforward. The least significant two address bits (A0, A1) are normally connected
to the like-named inputs of all displays in the system. With two chip enables (CE1 and CE2) four displays (16 characters) can easily be interconnected without a decoder.
Data lines are connected to all DLX2416s directly and in parallel, as is the write line (WR). The display will then
behave as a write-only memory.
The cursor function causes all dots of a digit position to illuminate at half brightness. The cursor is not a character, and
when removed the previously displayed character will reappear.
The DLX2416 has several features superior to competitive devices. True ’’blanking“ allows the designer to dim the display for more flexibility of display presentation. Finally the CLR clear function will clear the cursor RAM and the ASCII
character RAM simultaneously.
The character set consists of 128 special ASCII characters for English, German, Italian, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian.
All products are subjected to out-going AQL’s of 0.25% for brightness matching, visual alignment and dimensions,
0.065% for electrical and functional.

DLX2416—Flashing Circuit Using a 555 and
Flashing (Blanking) Timing
Setting the chip enable (CE1, CE2) to their true state will
enable data loading. The desired data code (D0-D6) and
digit address (A0, A1) must be held stable during the
write cycle for storing new data.
Data entry may be asynchronous and random. Digit 0 is
defined as right hand digit with A1=A2=0.
To clear the entire internal four-digit memory hold the
clear (CLR) low for 1.0 µs. All illuminated dots will be
turned off within one complete display multiplex cycle,
1.0 ms minimum. The clear function will clear both the
ASCII RAM and the cursor RAM.

Setting the chip enables (CE1, CE2) and cursor select
(CU) to their true state will enable cursor loading. A write
(WR) pulse will now store or remove a cursor into the
digit location addressed by A0, A1, as defined in data
entry. A cursor will be stored if D0=1 and will removed if
D0=0. The cursor (CU) pulse width should not be less
than the write (WR) pulse or erroneous data may appear
in the display.
If the cursor is not required, the cursor enable signal
(CUE) may be tied low to disable the cursor function. For
a flashing cursor, simply pulse CUE. If the cursor has
been loaded to any or all positions in the display, then
CUE will control whether the cursor(s) or the characters
will appear. CUE does not affect the contents of cursor
memory.

DLX2416—Dimming Circuit Using a 556 and
Dimming (Blanking) Timing
VCC = 5 V
Blanking the display may be accomplished by loading a
blank or space into each digit of the display or by using
the (BL) display blank input.
Setting the (BL) input low does not affect the contents of
either data or cursor memory.
A flashing circuit can easily be constructed using a 555
as table multivibrator. Figure 4 illustrates a circuit in
which varying R2 (100K~10K) will have a flash rate of
1.0 Hz~10 Hz.
The display can be dimmed by pulse width modulating
the (BL) at a frequency sufficiently fast to not interfere
with the internal clock. The dimming signal frequency
should be 2.5 kHz or higher. Dimming the display also
reduces power consumption.
An example of a simple dimming circuit using a 556 is
illustrated in Figure 5. Adjusting potentiometer R3 will
dim the display by changing the blanking pulse duty
cycle.

Electrical and Mechanical Considerations
Voltage Transient Suppression
We recommend that the same power supply be used for the display and the components that interface with the display to avoid
logic inputs higher than VCC. Additionally, the LEDs may cause
transients in the power supply line while they change display
states. The common practice is to place .01 mF capacitors close to
the displays across VCC and GND, one for each display, and one
10 mF capacitor for every second display.
Optical Considerations
The 0.200" high characters of the DLX2416 gives readability up to
eight feet. Proper filter selection enhances readability over this distance.
Filters enhance the contrast ratio between a lit LED and the character background intensifying the discrimination of different characters. The only limitation is cost. Take into consideration the
ambient lighting environment for the best cost/benefit ratio for filters.
Incandescent (with almost no green) or fluorescent (with almost no
red) lights do not have the flat spectral response of sunlight. Plastic band-pass filters are an inexpensive and effective way to
strengthen contrast ratios.
The DLR2416 is a standard red display and should be matched
with long wavelength pass filter in the 600 nm to 620 nm range.
The DLO2416 is a high efficiency red display and should be
matched with a long wavelength pass filter in the 470 nm to 590
nm range. The DLG2416 should be matched with a yellow-green
band-pass filter that peaks at 565 nm. For displays of multiple colors, neutral density gray filters offer the best compromise.
Additional contrast enhancement is gained by shading the displays. Plastic band-pass filters with built-in louvers offer the next
step up in contrast improvement. Plastic filters can be improved
further with anti-reflective coatings to reduce glare. The trade-off is
fuzzy characters. Mounting the filters close to the display reduces
this effect. Take care not to overheat the plastic filter by allowing for
proper air flow.
Optimal filter enhancements are gained by using circular polarized, anti-reflective, band-pass filters. Circular polarizing further
enhances contrast by reducing the light that travels through the filter and reflects back off the display to less than 1%.
Several filter manufacturers supply quality filter materials. Some of
them are: Panelgraphic Corporation, W. Caldwell, NJ; SGL Homalite, Wilmington, DE; 3M Company, Visual Products Division, St.
Paul, MN; Polaroid Corporation, Polarizer Division, Cambridge,
MA; Marks Polarized Corporation, Deer Park, NY, Hoya Optics,
Inc., Fremont, CA.
One last note on mounting filters: recessing displays and bezel
assemblies is an inexpensive way to provide a shading effect in
overhead lighting situations. Several Bezel manufacturers are:
R.M.F. Products, Batavia, IL; Nobex Components, Griffith Plastic
Corp., Burlingame, CA; Photo Chemical Products of California,
Santa Monica, CA; .E.E.-Atlas, Van Nuys, CA.
Refer to Appnote 23 at www.osram-os.com.
ESD Protection
The silicon gate CMOS IC of the DLX2416 is quite resistant to
ESD damage and capable of withstanding discharges greater than
2.0 kV. However, take all the standard precautions, normal for
CMOS components. These include properly grounding personnel,
tools, tables, and transport carriers that come in contact with
unshielded parts. If these conditions are not, or cannot be met,
keep the leads of the device shorted together or the parts in
anti-static packaging.
Soldering Considerations
The DLX2416 can be hand soldered with SN63 solder using a
grounded iron set to 260°C.
Wave soldering is also possible following these conditions: Preheat that does not exceed 93°C on the solder side of the PC board
or a package surface temperature of 85°C. Water soluble organic
acid flux (except carboxylic acid) or rosin-based RMA flux without
alcohol can be used.
Wave temperature of 245°C ±5°C with a dwell between 1.5 sec. to
3.0 sec. Exposure to the wave should not exceed temperatures
above 260°C for five seconds at 0.063" below the seating plane.
The packages should not be immersed in the wave.
Post Solder Cleaning Procedures
The least offensive cleaning solution is hot D.I. water (60 °C) for
less than 15 minutes. Addition of mild saponifiers is acceptable. Do
not use commercial dishwasher detergents.
For faster cleaning, solvents may be used. Carefully select any solvent as some may chemically attack the nylon package. Maximum
exposure should not exceed two minutes at elevated temperatures. Acceptable solvents are TF (trichorotribluorethane), TA, 111
Trichloroethane, and unheated acetone.
Note:
Acceptable commercial solvents are: Basic TF, Arklone, P.
Genesolv, D. Genesolv DA, Blaco-Tron TF and Blaco-Tron TA.
Unacceptable solvents contain alcohol, methanol, methylene chloride, ethanol, TP35, TCM, TMC, TMS+, TE, or TES. Since many commercial mixtures exist, contact a solvent vendor for chemical
composition information. Some major solvent manufacturers are:
Allied Chemical Corporation, Specialty Chemical Division, Morristown, NJ; Baron-Blakeslee, Chicago, IL; Dow Chemical, Midland, MI;
E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Co., Wilmington, DE.

An alternative to soldering and cleaning the display modules is to use
sockets. Standard pin DIP sockets .600" wide with 0.100" centers
work well for single displays. Multiple display assemblies are best
handled by longer SIP sockets or DIP sockets when available for uniform package alignment. Socket manufacturers are Aries Electronics,
Inc., Frenchtown, NJ; Garry Manufacturing, New Brunswich, NJ; Robinson-Nugent, New Albany, IN; and Samtec Electronic Hardware,
New Albany, IN.
