A320 FCU and 7 segment size
Hello.
As you have seen. I wast asking about where to get 7 segment displays in white, but this is another discussion.
What I am confused now, is the size of 7 segments that are used in A320 FCU.
Is it 0.30", 0.36", 0.39"?
0.40" are to high. Can any one tell me the hight?
Thanks,
Martin

I'm not sure about the A320 but the Boeing MCP uses Hewlett Packard HDP-7303 (now 7503) Micro Bright seven segment displays from Agilient (formerly HP).
They are somewhat expensive given the size. They are .5" high and .3" wide mechanically with a .03" display height.
I think the reason for the expense is that they are sunlight-viewable and clear from a 10ft distance.
If you can tolerate a "little" excursion from the height (.55" instead of the correct .50") then the KingBright displays are a good match and relatively cheap.

The optimum hight as I know is 0.36" but very important is width of digit as well. Do not use single digit displays, as the width is working to wide. I was looking very long for it as I needed for my project. Finally this is the place: http://www.lc-led.com/Catalog/depart...category/52/13
You can get yellow and white as well 2, 3 and 4 digits for EFIS.
Have a look on my website to find some more informations regarding A320-project http://www.a320-project.skalarki.co.uk/
