[neonixie-l] New display on the block?
Hi folks, check out Ebay item 150510936469, if you haven't already done so, type number ITS1A. Their description says: These thyratron-type tubes pumped with neon, but makes beautiful emerald-green color of light: green is by phosphor film over the electrode, with orange shade of neon discharge around segments - looks very cool! These can be operated by pulsed TTL-level signal - you can apply short pulse to grid to turn taken segment into active state, which is very convenient. And no current-limiting resistors are needed! All resistors are already inside, just provide operating voltages. Besides, you can make different symbols due to independent 7- segment design. Sounds kind of interesting. Has anyone built something with these yet? It is the first time I see these offered, IIRC. The seller sits in the US, quite unusual for Soviet displays. Looking forward to hearing your opinions, Jens -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.

Re: [neonixie-l] New display on the block?
This is certainly interesting. Are there any russian speaking engineers that can help explain how to drive these? http://promzi.ru/lb-6-67-extr/ I have a russian woman at work that I often accost with datasheets similar to this, but she's not an engineer and it becomes kind of a project. I notice that there is one katod on the pinout, perhaps these are driven more similar to VFD's than to nixies. -Adam On Sun, Oct 24, 2010 at 12:57 PM, Jens Boos webmas...@jb-electronics.dewrote: Hi folks, check out Ebay item 150510936469, if you haven't already done so, type number ITS1A.

Hello. They`re thyrathrons with phosphor, it`s said in the auction and it`s true. I`ll post some data tomorrow, but in`s a long story :).

[neonixie-l] Re: here we go again, picaxe and 74141 problem.
This should be obvious, but you didn't mention it: did you check the tube itself by hardwiring it? It is not unheard of for nixies to develop internal shorts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group.
