Those have been on ebay for a good while from the same seller, I was tempted a while ago but they are just too high a $ for my taste. The displays panels themselves are, if i recall from reading somewhere, a nightmare to drive as they use glow transfer to scan in data, so essentially gas based multiplexing. Those for 250 do look like they come with some soviet era wizardry in the box and he states are parallel 8 bit interfaces (LPT port...).
I think I actually looked around at the time and discovered they were used on soviet CNC machines - I even found a Russian companies website offering LCD replacements for them. - Alex On Monday, 23 February 2015 13:36:45 UTC, Mike Mitchell wrote: > > Has anyone done anything with the Russian IMG-1 100x100 neon array? > I've seen a few ebay postings > > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rarest-NOS-NIB-NIXIE-MATRIX-screen-100x100-10000-Z568M/321346505250 > and > > http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rarest-NIXIE-MATRIX-screen-100x100-10000-Z568M-tube-vfd-IN-18/321356330231 > > It looks interesting... > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
