Features

DMS-20PC Series, 3½ Digit, LED Display, Digital Panel Voltmeters combine a
precision A/D converter; a factory-trimmed, highly stable, voltage reference; and a
large (0.37"/9.4mm), easy-to-read LED display in a single package that is only
slightly larger than the display itself. Displays are offered in either red, orange,
amber, yellow or green colors. High-intensity and low-power (35mW total) red LED's
are also optional.

These low-cost meters are fully self-contained and fully functional. Their
subminiature (1.38" x 0.88" x 0.48"), epoxy-encapsulated cases incorporate built-in
color filters and bezels; are moisture and vibration proof; and function well in the
harshest environments. Their 12-pin, dual-in-line configuration offers component-like,
plug-in convenience and maximum versatility. Operating temperature range is 0 to
+60°C.

The meters come with one of four, differential, input voltage ranges: ±200mV, ±2V
±20V or ±200V. Input impedance is a minimum 800kΩ. CMRR is typically 86dB (dc
to 60Hz), and CMV is ±2V. Input overvoltage protection (on the non-inverting input)
is ±250V. Devices are fully calibrated at the factory to an accuracy of ±1 count
(±0.05% of full scale range) and never require calibration or adjustment.

A DISPLAY ENABLE function permits the display to be disabled for "power­down" operation. All models have a DISPLAY TEST function. Standard red LED
models offer an optional DISPLAY HOLD function.

Small size, low cost and adjustment-free reliability make the DMS-20PC Series
the best choice for all your 3½ digit, LED, DPM applications.

Performance/Functional Specifications

Typical at TA = +25°C and supply voltage = +5V using the single-ended input circuit,
unless otherwise noted.

➀

Applies for transient or continuous overvoltages applied to (+) INPUT HI (pin 11)
with (–) INPUT LO (pin 12) properly connected. Pin 12 is not overvoltage protected
(see Figure 1). Voltages applied to pin 12 should not exceed the supply voltage.

➁

See Technical Notes.

➂

The DISPLAY HOLD function is optional on standard red and green LED models only.
See Ordering Information.

standard red and green
LED models only).

T echnical Notes

1. REFERENCE OUTPUT (Pin 8) and INPUT (Pin 7): Pin 8 is a

precision reference actively trimmed at the factory. In normal
operation, pin 8 must be tied to pin 7 to achieve all listed accuracy
and drift specifications.

2. ANALOG COMMON (Pin 10): This pin is connected to an internal,
low-noise, "relative" ground. It is used in certain differential and
"floating" measurements as described in the Applications section
of this data sheet and Ap Note 3 of the DATEL Panel Meter Catalog.

Pin 10 should not be connected to pin 3 (5V RETURN) or to
your system’s analog ground.

3. Decimal Point Placement: The location of the decimal point is

user-selectable, and the decimal point control pins (DP1-DP3) are
active low functions. Select the appropriate decimal point by tying
the appropriate pin (pin 4, 5 or 6) to pin 3 (5V RETURN). Unused
decimal point location pins should be left open.

Hard wiring is preferable, however, you can use logic gates to
exercise dynamic control over the location of the decimal point if the
following drive conditions are met:

Model Applied "0" Voltage Load Current*
DMS-20PC-X-RL +0.05V max. 0.7mA max.
All Others +0.4V max. 6mA max.

* The driving gates must be able to sink this much current

(I

OL) with a logic "0" output.
