Commonly used in-car radios, digital clocks, microwaves and many forms of audio/video display, vacuum fluorescent displays (commonly abbreviated to VFDs) is a technology that while mostly replaced by LCDs in the modern era of technology, still have a wide variety of uses today.

If you’re looking for one to use for your own electronic devices, you’re likely to find that there are quite a few different options available to you. Not sure what you’re looking for? Don’t worry, we’re here to give you a little help in finding the right one for your needs.

What do you need it for?

One of the first things you might want to consider is what you’ll actually be using the display for. The size and options will all be important to check depending on the task at hand, so it’s best to know what it is that you’re looking for. 

This can be important in aesthetics (which can include colour and resolution), usability (for example luminosity and operating temperature) and general compatibility with what you need (factors like supply voltage, dimensions, type of pin configuration and more). While these aren’t necessarily the only things that you’ll need to consider in these categories, they are a few examples of things that you’ll want to take a look at when shopping for a good vacuum fluorescent display. 

Consider popular brands and products

VFD displays may be a form of technology that’s not used as much today as it was in the past, but that doesn’t mean that they’re hard to get a hold of. For the most part, you’ll find that there are several options available to you – which can make finding the right one a little trickier.

On the plus side, there are generally some brands that are known for providing great quality VFDs, as well as products that are generally well known for being a good buy. If you’re interested in getting a display you can trust, it might be worth searching around for some of the most worthwhile options out there or asking around for advice.   

Search around for the right one for your needs

Whether you know of all the best brands or not, you’ll often be able to do your research on the options available to you and make up your own mind. It can be easy enough to search for vacuum fluorescent displays and see what their specs and features are. 

Doing so, you could filter through the different products to find the ones that are best suited to your needs and pick the right one from there. From display colours to price, there are plenty of factors that you could use to help you make the right choice.
