+Click here to purchase one from the Adafruit shop -Format is EagleCAD schematic and board layout +The IS31FL3731 will let you get back to that classic LED matrix look, with a nice upgrade! This I2C LED driver chip has the ability to PWM each individual LED in a 16x9 grid so you can have beautiful LED lighting effects, without a lot of pin twiddling. Simply tell the chip which LED on the grid you want lit, and what brightness and it's all taken care of for you. -For more details, check out the product pages at +The IS31FL3731 is a nice little chip - it can use 2.7-5.5V power and logic so its flexible for use with any microcontroller. You can set the address so up to 4 matrices can share an I2C bus. Inside is enough RAM for 8 seperate frames of display memory so you can set up multiple frames of an animation and flip them to be displayed with a single command. - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2946 (the IS31FL breakout) - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2973 (blue LEDs) - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2974 (cool white LEDs) - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2948 (yellow LEDs) - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2947 (red LEDs) - * https://www.adafruit.com/products/2972 (green LEDs) +This chip is great for making small LED displays, and we even designed the breakout to match up with our ready-to-go LED grids in red, yellow, green, blue and white. Sandwich the driver and matrix breakout, solder together for a compact setup. Or you can DIY your own setup, just follow the LED grid schematic in the IS31FL3731 datasheet. -Adafruit invests time and resources providing this open source design, -please support Adafruit and open-source hardware by purchasing -products from Adafruit! +See the following products for various flavors of this product: -Designed by Adafruit Industries. -Creative Commons Attribution, Share-Alike license, check license.txt for more information -All text above must be included in any redistribution \ No newline at end of file +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2946 (the IS31FL breakout) +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2973 (blue LEDs) +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2974 (cool white LEDs) +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2948 (yellow LEDs) +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2947 (red LEDs) +- https://www.adafruit.com/products/2972 (green LEDs) + +PCB files for the IS31FL3731 CharliePlex LED Breakouts.
