Frequently Asked Questions
Is MTV021N-25 the same number as MTV021N?
MTV021N-25 is the full number printed on the body. Myson lists each dash suffix as its own orderable number, so a board that calls for MTV021N-25 takes this one.
Will it drop into a board laid out for a 20-pin or 24-pin MTV021?
No. The MTV021 was made in 16-pin, 20-pin and 24-pin plastic DIP, and this is the 16-pin version, so it fits a 16-pin footprint only.

Late in the CRT era, the contrast bar and the input menu floating over the picture were drawn by small chips like this Myson. What appears on the next screen is your text to write.
