MODEL MDMV - MINIATURE DISPLAY MODULE D.C. VOLTMETER
DESCRIPTION
With advantages of accuracy, size, and ease of installation, it is an ideal
replacement for analog meters. The unit has a 3½-digit LCD display with 0.4"
(10.2 mm) high digits. The displays are available in positive image reflective
(black digits, reflective background) or negative image transmissive (illuminated
digits, dark background) with red or yellow/green backlighting.
mechanically protected. Internal electrical interface connections use elastomeric
connectors to provide a corrosion resistant connection. This reliable construction
also reduces the space requirements.
module measures input voltages from 0 to ±199.9 mV DC relative to the supply
common.
required. If the input signal exceeds the input range, the unit display will
indicate an overrange condition.
annunciators (BAT,V,A,m,μ). The BAT (Battery) annunciator is used to indicate
a low battery condition, while the others are used to indicate Volts and Amperes.
DIMENSIONS
In inches (mm)
The MDMV is a small panel or printed circuit board mount digital voltmeter.
The integrated circuit is bonded directly to the printed circuit board and is
The MDMV module is designed to operate from a +5 VDC supply. The
Auto-zeroing is provided by the module, therefore no zero adjustment is
The module has three selectable decimal point positions and five selectable
