HDSP Series
14.2 mm (0.56 inch)
Seven Segment Displays
Data Sheet
Description
The 14.2 mm (0.56 inch) LED seven segment displays are
designed for viewing distances up to 7 metres (23 feet).
These devices use an industry standard size package and
pinout. Both the numeric and ±1 overflow devices feature a
right hand decimal point. All devices are available as either
common anode or common cathode.
These displays are ideal for most applications. Pin for pin
IFAVG DATA SHEET = 10 mA
KPeak = 1.3
IV DATA SHEET = 2800 Pcd
Therefore
IvAVG = (10 mA/10 mA)
(1.3)(2800 Pcd)
= 3640 Pcd

Contrast Enhancement
The objective of contrast enhancement is to provide good
display readability in the end use ambient light. The con-
cept is to employ both luminance and chrominance con-
trast techniques to enhance the readability. This is accom-
plished by having the OFF dots blend into the display
background and the ON dots stand out vividly against this
same background. Therefore, these display devices are as-
sembled with a gray package and matching encapsulat-
ing epoxy in the dots.
Contrast enhancement may be achieved by using one of
the following suggested filters:
Standard Red and AlGaAs Red (HDSP-5300/H150)
Panelgraphic RUBY RED 60
SGL-Homalite H100-1605 RED
3M Louvered Filter R6610 RED or N0210 GRAY
HER (HDSP-5500)
Panelgraphic SCARLET RED 60
SGL-Homalite H100-1670 RED or H100-1250 GRAY
3M Louvered Filter R6610 RED or N0210 GRAY
Yellow (HDSP-5700)
Panelgraphic YELLOW 27 or GRAY 10
SGL-Homalite H100-1720 AMBER or H100-1250 GRAY
3M Louvered Filter A5910 AMBER or N0210 GRAY
Green (HDSP-5600)
Panelgraphic GREEN 48
SGL-Homalite H100-1440 GREEN or H100-1250 GRAY
3M Louvered Filter YG6610 RED or N0210 GRAY
For further information on contrast enhancement please
see Application Note 1015.
Mechanical
Specially developed plastics are used to optimize the
displays optical performance. These plastics restrict the
solvents that may be used for cleaning. Only mixtures of
Freon (F113) and alcohol should be used for vapor clean-
ing processes. Total immersion time in the vapors is two
minutes. Some suggested mixtures are Freon TE, Arklone
A or K, or Genesolv DI-15 or DE-15. A 60°C (140°F) water
cleaning process may also be used. This process includes
a neutralizer rinse (3% ammonia solution or equivalent),
a surfactant rinse (1% detergent solution or equivalent),
a water rinse, and a thorough air dry. Room temperature
cleaning may be done with Freon T-E35 or T-P35, Ethanol,
Isopropanol, or water with a mild detergent.
Cleaning agents from the ketone family (acetone, methyl
ethyl ketone, etc.) and from the chlorinated hydrocarbon
family (methylene chloride, trichloro ethylene, carbon tet-
rachloride, etc.) are not recommended for cleaning LED
parts. All of these various solvents attack or dissolve the
encapsulating epoxies used to form the package of plastic
LED parts.

These displays are ideal for most applications. Pin for pin
equivalent displays are also available in a low current design.
The low current displays are ideal for portable applica tions.
For additional information see the Low Current Seven Seg-
ment Displays data sheet.

Notes:
1. Device case temperature is 25°C prior to the intensity measurement.
2. The digits are categorized for luminous intensity. The intensity category is designated by a letter on the side of the package.
3. The dominant wavelength, Od, is derived from the CIE chromaticity diagram and is that single wavelength which defines the color of the device.
4. Typical specification for reference only. Do not exceed absolute maximum ratings.
5. For low current operation, the AlGaAs HDSP-H10X series displays are recommended. They are tested at 1 mA dc/segment and are pin for pin
compatible with the HDSP-H15X series.
6. For low current operation, the HER HDSP-555X series displays are recommended. They are tested at 2 mA dc/segment and are pin for pin com-
patible with the HDSP-550X series.
7. The Yellow (HDSP-5700) and Green (HDSP-5600) displays are categorized for dominant wavelength. The category is designated by a number
adjacent to the luminous intensity category letter.
