Default Help me find a datasheet. VFD (FUTABA 6-lt-101ZK.

Hello,
I know this isn't entirely a radio post but a general electronics post.
I have been trying to find a datasheet for a VFD (FUTABA 6-lt-101ZK).
If anyone has this datasheet or knows where to find it please let me know. I tried looking it up on google but no datasheets come up.
Thanks.

Hi,
What is a VFD? I'm guessing from the mention of futaba that it is something to do with a radio control system for model aircraft or similar? The more information you can give us the better we can help you

Unlikely you will find the exact datasheet, but this site will show you how to determine what each pin does (he uses a Futaba 9LT):-

Hi

There is some information on a Futaba 6LT06 3.5 digit VFD in Ambit International's second catalogue. Whether this is the same pin out I can't say. The catalogue can be found here: https://www.americanradiohistory.com...cellaneous.htm Scroll down to Catalogs and Sales Brochures. It's in Catalog 2. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Symon
