I have an integrated circuit in the form as a DIN chip, and I have no clue what it is. I have tried searching for the markings on the chip, which are as follows:

Top: HDJ2100-393 937GA1925463B2WW

Bottom: TAIWAN 937GA1925463B2WW

It is a 40-pin chip. I found two of these inside of an old CD mixer. It is a Numark CD-MIX 1, and it was on what appeared to be the display system, as there were two near where the LCDs were. All I could find for a manual is the quickstart guide here, but I don't have the manual because it was basically in a giant bin of audio equipment.

Could someone tell me what this is or direct me on how to figure it out?

Hit the edit link to add in the details. Did you mean DIP, DIL or DIN? (If DIN, what does it stand for?) \$\endgroup\$ – Transistor Apr 27 '20 at 17:19
  • \$\begingroup\$ You got it - old CD mixer. I meant dual in-line, I see it referred to as DIN. \$\endgroup\$ – coresdev Apr 27 '20 at 17:20

    \$\begingroup\$ I'd say your chances are slim and that that's a custom display driver chip for that range of products. Maybe someone will have a clue. \$\endgroup\$ – Transistor Apr 27 '20 at 17:32

More often than not, such ICs are custom made for a specific purpose. Their datasheets and other such information is usually private, and not publicly available.

I found a device which fits your description (called Inter-m CDC-2050), and which includes this IC. I couldn't find any datasheet for it, though.
