IGT1-203 Self Scan bar graph display

Another bunch arrived on my workbench, my recent eBay purchase, IGT1-203 plasma bar graph display. This is single channel self scan plasma display with a working principle similar to  PBG12201  panel indicator (Love that glow in the dark!). IGT1-203  has   5 scan  cathodes, one reset  segment/cathode, one anode for linear control, and two keep-alive pins. 

Simple STM8 library was written to drive this IGT1-203 display panel.  It  uses  one  ADC channel, TIM4 scan  timer and embedded IDWG  watchdog for better stability.



 Schematic is pretty simple:
