(COGVFD) Chip on Glass VFD

Chip on Glass VFD (COGVFD); Fewer leads to mount driver IC make it easy insert lead to PCB

Summary

COGVFD is the VFD mounted with a driver IC chip. Conventionally full dot matrix type or 5x7 dots included type had difficulty to be designed, because of many lead terminals. Mounting the driver IC chip on a base plate of VFD, the leads needed to drive VFD are those only for power supply and signal. It is drastically reduced external leads.

Feature

1. Since the VFD is constructed with driver IC, no external driver is necessary.

2. The number of the lead terminals were drastically reduced to several connections to the PCB, which eases reduce the manufacturing complexity.

3. Since the input lines to the display are reduced, the design of the PCB becomes very simple and wiring space can saved. The end result is to lower the total system cost.

4. The VFD is a custom design product. When employing the CCOG design, the peripheral device can now be the standardized.
