Ultrathin LED Matrix Library

This is an Arduino library for Ultrathin 32x16 LED Matrix.

Ultrathin 32x16 LED Matrix

Several panels can be combined together as a large screen.

Pins

  • A, B, C, D - line select for two 74HC138
  • OE - Ouput Enable(active low) for 74HC595
  • STB - data latch for 74HC595
  • CLK - shift register clock input for 74HC595

If you use the LED matrix with mbed platform, another library is for you.

Usage

#include "LEDMatrix.h"

#define WIDTH   32
#define HEIGHT  16

LEDMatrix matrix(4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11);		// LEDMatrix(a, b, c, d, oe, r1, stb, clk);
uint8_t displaybuf[WIDTH *HEIGHT / 8]; 			// Display Buffer

void setup() {
    matrix.begin(displaybuf, WIDTH, HEIGHT);
}

void loop() {
    static uint32_t lastCountTime = 0;
    static uint8_t count = 0;

    matrix.scan();

    if ((millis() - lastCountTime) > 3000) {
        lastCountTime = millis();
        matrix.drawRect(count + 4, count, 28 - count, 16 - count, 1 - (count & 1));
        count = (count + 1) & 0x0F;
    }
}
