These things have some sort of conductive layer on the glass as "leads" and as far as I can tell, connecting one of these displays to a breadboarding socket would take a bit of magic. Anybody have any ideas? Also, what good single chip display controllers are there around? I'm looking to interface a 16 segment, 16 character LED or LCD alphanumeric display, and I would really prefer that the 8031 I'm using in the project could spend its time doing things other than refreshing a display.
