+MAX6921 Shift Register
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is a capture of data output to a MAX6921 high voltage shift register that
+was outputting data for a VFD clock.
+
+The signals were grabbed on a 28-pin PLCC chip (MAX6921) which outputs 20-bits
+that is crafted as a design for VFD applications.
+
+Logic analyzer setup
+--------------------
+
+The logic analyzer used was Open Bench Logic Sniffer (at 10Mhz):
+
+ Probe		MAX6921 Pin
+ --------------------------
+ 0              LOAD	
+ 1		DATA
+ 2		CLK
+ 3		BLANK (PWM Brightness Control)
+
+Data
+----
+
+The data contain various values for the VFD being driven, as reference at the
+prototype Nixie Cape for the Beaglebone.
