Now thats sweet, and a heck of a lot better thought out than the last such chip I looked at a decade ago. Needs a 4 wire cable from each direction, but I don't see as that as a problem other than stealing the ground and 3.3 or 5 volts to run its side of it at both ends. That should indeed sove the noise problem. The pcb requires a slightly different layout of putting the power on the center layers, so the best bet is to look around and see if someone might have it all boxed up and ready to connect. Were you able to find such a ready-made critter? If so where? Thanks Nicklas. In the FWIW dept, I looked at the serial interface data for that VFD I bought, and IF the interface is present, its RS232. It runs at 9600 baud, expects a 9 byte packet control packet, and sends back a 13 byte status packet, with a couple tables to show what byte means what. Not exactly real time, but hey, its a spindle motor. But I don't believe that little postage stamp sized card is in this one.
