Abstract :
A bar-matrix layout for displaying English alphanumeric characters and Greek alphabetic characters is presented. The layout uses 14 segments and two dots (giving a total of 16 elements) and is designed so that, with selective illumination of various elements, all the numeric and alphanumeric as well as Greek alphabetic characters can be displayed along with some special symbols. The display requires only simple interfacing circuits. A 64-word ASCII character set and X- and Y-deflection waveforms for cathode-ray tube displays are also presented
