Data Sheet
Description
The HCMS-201X, HCMS-231X and the sunlight
viewable HCMS-235X series are 5 x 7 LED four
character displays contained in 12 pin dual-in-line
packages designed for displaying alphanumeric
information. The character height for the HCMS-
201X series displays is 3.8 mm (0.15 inch), and for
the HCMS-231X and HCMS-235X series displays the
character height is 5.0 mm (0.20 inch). The HCMS-
201X series displays are available in four LED colors:
standard red, high efficiency red, yellow and high
performance green. The HCMS-231X series are
available in all

five LED colors. The HCMS-235X
series displays are available in
four LED colors: high efficiency
red, orange, yellow and high
performance green. The HCMS-
201X series displays are end
stackable. The HCMS-231X and
HCMS-235X series displays are
end/row stackable.
These displays are designed with
on-board CMOS integrated
circuits for use in applications
where conservation of power is
important. The two CMOS ICs
form an on-board 28-bit serial-in-
parallel-out shift register with
constant current output LED row
drivers. Decoded column data is
clocked into the on-board shift
register for each refresh cycle.
Full character display is achieved
with external column strobing.
Compatibility with
HDSP-201X/-231X/-235X
TTL IC Series Displays
The HCMS-201X, HCMS-231X
and HCMS-235X CMOS IC
displays are “drop-in” replace-
ments for the equivalent HDSP-
201X, HDSP-231X and HDSP-
235X TTL IC displays. The 12 pin
glass/ceramic package configura-
tion, four digit character matrix
and pin functions are identical.

J-A
= 60°C/W
HCMS-231X series derate above 88°C at 22 mW/°C, Rθ
J-A
= 45°C/W
HCMS-235X series derate above 71°C at 23 mW/°C, Rθ
J-A
= 45°C/W.
