Osram SCD55100A intelligent 10-digit Dot-Matrix Display (red) and socket DIP-28

The Osram SCD55100A Intelligent LED Display is a 10-digit, 5×5 dot matrix display with integrated serial interface, decoders, multiplexers, and LED drivers - all in a compact 28-pin DIP package. It features user-defined characters, built-in brightness control, and low power consumption, making it ideal for custom instruments, counters, and calculators.

Designed for seamless connection with microcontrollers, the SCD55100A operates with either internal or external multiplex clocks.

We include one socket DIP-28 together with every display module.
