Re: [CZsynth] CZ-1 Backlight gone

2016-08-18 by Daniel Forró

I don't know how much space is inside CZ1000, but probably it is  
possible. I have changed display in my CZ3000, it was OK. Display has  
HD74480 standard. From the schematics it looks like the display has no  
EL backlight, there's no inverter circuit.

Here is some guide which I have found somewhere on the net.

I suppose soldering is necessary for connecting the new display to the  
cable, add limiting resistor, and two cables to the PSU.
