#164682 - Ah, yes ... the Fairchild FND-70 driver ... Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Those were controlled-current drivers, weren't they?
What ever happened to the notion of using a nybble-to-7-segment encoder for such things (HEX Display)? The 9368 was the last one I encountered. There was supposed to be an 8880 from NSC that did that, but when I ordered them, and this was >30 years ago, I got 14-pin parts that were marked 8880, but obviously, due to their pin count, weren't the correct device.
