[QUOTE="gbyleveldt, post: 2306, member: 122"] Pieter, I actually purchased the VFD through Mantech as a Farnell Part, so you can definately get it there. How much is it through RS? I couldn't find it on their site. I didn't even bother checking previously as they are usually prohibitavely expensive :eusa_naughty: Anyway, you can talk to this VFD using the same 4bit parallel port as the standard LCD's. Plus you are not limited to 20x2 characters, but have full 144x16 dot graphics! Fancy a splash screen when you switch on the pre-amp?! Yeah!! The last catch is getting a smoked or colour filter for it, I'm still looking... Gert PS. The attached images are courtesy of Mark Hennesy.
