====== Futaba NA202MD13AA VFD ======

    I had used a bunch of these back in the day...
    I purchased yhese Futaba Vacuum Flourescent displays for $4 each.
    I wanted a winamp display and a unique nameplate for my desk.
    
    It comes with a 10 pin connector but 5 of those get grounded 2 for +v5 and three data signals....
    Using a pic18f452 to drive it.
    Also ported it to an pic18f1320
    hex file below is for the 18f452 that works with the schematic shown.
    Also have code for a car warning message panel

Here is a shot of the display. It draws about 1 amp at 5V so it's not a miser but it is bright and only 5 connections to make it work.
