The module includes the VFD glass, VF drivers and
microcontroller with refresh RAM, character generation,
interface logic and patented transformerless DC/DC converter.
The module features a unique low profile compact design.
Key codes from the integrated IR receiver can be sent to the
host. The module can operate in terminal mode where the host
sends text with user editable fields. When editing is complete
the user presses ENTER to transmit the display content to the
host.
