Nixie Displays

Nixie tubes are an ingenious 1960's technology for creating numeric displays ( similar to today's 7-segment LED or numeric LCD digits ). Nixie tubes and Nixie clocks have many dedicated fans who have built awesome Nixie clocks. Some Nixie users have designed their own hard-wired logic circuit. Nixie's can also be driven by microcontrollers.

One of our customers, Mr. George from Houston, Texas, have built a complete Nixie clock using surplus army equipment ( for the displays ), a PRO-MAX board and a RTC-1 board from BiPOM. We extend our gratitude to him for sharing his pictures with us.
