LCD Display - Nan Ya Plastics Corp. LMDDCS423CK

Trying to figure out this display, that I acquired. No real plans for it. Just thought that it was pretty cool. The only thing I have going so far is the electroluminescent (EL) backlight.

Just using this to keep notes, as I learn more about it. Also open to suggestions and clues.

  • LMDDCS423C

Details on Board:

  • (1) 2 pin power connector for EL backlight
  • (2) 40 Pin Connector

  • (3) Sanyo LC79430 Dot-Matrix LCD Drivers

The combination of the LC79401 & LC79430 tells me that it is possibly 320x240 pixels.
