In article ,

says...
it is a VFD display *driver* IC, 32 bit shift reg with
latches.
VCC1 5-12 V to power the IC and the VCC2 is the controlled
voltage 0-60V ( 40 mA) which drives an the VFD display.

So i can replace the 36 ohm (it is fried) with anything close
and
probably should choose one on the higher side (i.e. 47 Ohm
over
the 22 Ohm) ?

Figure out why it fried, fix the problem, replace with same
value unless you have a compelling reason to change it.

think there was a shorted connection between 32 v and ground and
i think that is what fried the resistor ??
a bad solder joint bridged to ground track

i do not have a 36 Ohm but i have 22 and 47 and so i figured i
should err on higher side (the 47 Ohm)

thanks for the help,
