Abstract
A fluorescent display apparatus includes display cells of a first type consisting of several sets of fluorescent display segments of various colors arranged in a certain order and display cells of a second type consisting of display segments equal in number and color, but opposite in the order of arrangement of colors, to the first display cells. The first and second display cells are arrayed in a matrix fashion with their lead lines aligning alternately with the intention of reducing areas used for the bend of lead lines and thereby arranging the cells closely so as to enhance the resolution of display.
