Description
Three chainable 8x8 LED matrix modules, one each in red, green and blue, with colour-matched 3D-printed cases. For scrolling text, simple games and status displays.
Highlights
- One colour each. Red, green and blue modules, 64 LEDs apiece; each module is a single fixed colour, not RGB.
- Three signal wires. The MAX7219 driver takes DIN, CLK and CS, plus power.
- Chainable. DOUT feeds the next module's DIN, so three make a 24x8 display. Soldering headers is required to link them.
- Adjustable brightness. 16 brightness levels set in code, plus a low-power shutdown mode.
- Cases included. Each module gets a colour-matched 3D-printed PLA case, so no bare PCB shows.
