he PinLED Display 20001 unites a very long lifetime and reliability for your Data East pinball. It replaces the hard to find original plasma glass tube. If you had tried to change such a plasma glass tube you would know what I mean.... And the PinLED Display is the only one you can find in the world which can replace a defective original plasma glass tube. The original plasma glass tube isn't any longer available. The PinLED Display Set 20001 will help you to keep your Data East machine alive for the next few years. The PinLED Display shows the same different bright- and contrast levels as the original plasma glass tube display. The measurements of the LED Display are 40x320mm. These are almost the same as the original plasma glass tube (the original plasma glass tube is a little bit larger than the PinLED Display but it has the effective luminance area of about 40x322mm).
T
he PinLED Display-Set 20001 is for use in the following Data East machines: Checkpoint, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Batman, Star Trek 25th Anniversary, Hook.
T
he PinLED board is a 4- layer board (similar to a computer motherboard). The PinLED board contains the entire control electronics. The board is made in modern SMD- technique (Surface Mounted Devices). The Z80 CPU and the RAM is located on the front in the lower left hand corner of the board. Directly behind this on the reverse side of the board is the EPROM. These three IC's have sockets so a change is very easy. The board is fully compatible with the control signals of the Data East main computer board. It uses the same connectors as the original Data East boards. No conversion will be necessary. Installation is "plug and play" and takes only five minutes (see installation guide).

On the back of the board you can see the Display Eprom on the right hand side. The Eprom isn't included in the PinLED Display Set 20001. You can use your old one or you can order one separately. |

On this picture you can see the lower left corner of the front side. The Z80 CPU and the RAM are located here. You can also see the LED matrix arrays. These have sockets because many other parts are located under there (resistors, IC's). |

echnical Notes:
The consistent brilliance of the PinLED Displays make for excellent viewing
under all lighting conditions, even bright daylight.
The display board uses only the 5 V voltage from the Power Supply
Assembly. Power consumption of the PinLED Display board with all dots on is only 1.2A.
This additional power will be delivered by the Power Supply Assembly without any
problems. The control transistor 2N6057 is designed for 12A, but under normal
conditions this high amount of current will not be used in the pinball machine
(2.5 to 3 A is normal).
A detailed instruction sheet is included for installation.
