Overview
Using Citizen's unique Hyperscan technology, the USC-504 video modules provide an ideal module for use in such applications as video monitoring, door entry systems and in-car information systems. With a resolution of 324 x 220 dots, the display is equally capable of displaying graphical data, such as traffic navigation systems as it is showing video images.
The use of Chip-On-Glass ( COG ) technology in the display, a technique used, developed and enhanced by Citizen for many years, means
that the unit is extremely compact with a small bezel around the unit. The integral backlight and inverter and single 12-volt power supply means that the unit is simplicity itself to design in and use.
The Hyperscan technology doubles the usual refresh rate of the display from a standard 50 / 60 Hz up to 100 / 120 Hz. This means that the images is brighter, clearer and has a higher contrast and fast moving video images are not blurred. Once again, Citizen's use of COG technology allows us to produce such an advanced display.

Connection Details
The input to the display is by means of one 10-pin connector. The connector is a "moulded" wire-type connector. The connector has both horizontal and vertical sync connections. If Composite Sync input is being used, then the Csync signal should be applied to both the Hsync and Vsync terminals (i.e. link them together).
The Brt+ and Brt- terminals (for contrast adjustment) should be connected to a 5K variable resistor. The VBL and VIN signals can be supplied from the same source, but routing the VBL directly from the power supply is preferred. Recommended connector: JST EHR-10.
Pin 1 of the connector is identified by a small triangular impression in the rear of the metal case.
