There’s no denying the stylish nature of Nixie Tubes. Whether you’re adding numbers to a clock project, or using them for another type of display, these unique tubes always make a device stand out.
The Nixie Tube Driver from Doayee is a simple and easy way to include a 6-digit Nixie Tube display into your next project. The device supports IN12A/B and IN15A/B tubes. This will offer the option to display numbers, decimal points, or symbols as well.
The board also has a high power RGB LED backlight behind each of the tubes, which allow you to add a splash of color to your display. The driver is based on the HV5122 from Microchip and should be used with a microcontroller. The seller’s website also has a fully written Arduino library to accompany the driver.
The library is designed to simplify the process for displaying your chosen numbers or symbols. It also includes a backlight controller for blending colors, adding fades, or creating custom color loops.
Keep in mind that the board here will require Nixie Tubes and a power supply, which is not included. Take a look at the video below to see it in action!
