Futaba compatible VFD modules from Noritake Itron
7/19/2023
Since Samsung has stopped manufacturing VFDs and Futaba has also withdrawn from this market at the end of 2021, there are many companies that use Futaba modules in their application and are looking for a compatible display to continue their business.
Our partner Noritake Itron - inventor of VFDs - has a wide product portfolio of VFDs and VFD modules, so former Futaba customers can purchase high quality alternative or compatible displays from us. Some displays are available as direct replacements for the corresponding Futaba module. If no direct replacement is available, semi-custom solutions from the Noritake Itron standard VFD product range can be considered. Please contact us. As a distributor, Neumüller Elektronik GmbH maintains a very close partnership with Noritake Itron and will be happy to advise you.
