1 Getting Started

Figure 1: VK202-25

The VK202-25 is an intelligent VFD display designed to decrease development time by providing an

instant solution to any project. With the ability to communicate via serial RS-232/TTL and I2C protocols,

the versatile VK202-25 can be used with virtually any controller. The ease of use is further enhanced by

an intuitive command structure to allow display settings such as brightness, and baud rate to be software

controlled. Additionally, up to thirty-two custom charaters, such as character sets for bar graphs, medium

and large numbers, may be stored in the non-volitile memory to be easily recalled and displayed at any time.

1.1 Display Options Available

The VK202-25 is complimented with a wide selection of ﬁlters including blue, green, grey and red. If the

VFD will be in direct sunlight, the grey ﬁlter will prevent the displayed text from ’washing out’. Extended

voltage, and temperature options are also available, to allow you to select the display which will best ﬁt your

project needs.
