Hardware Connection

Prepare Materials

  • RGB-Matrix-P2.5-96 x 48-F (this product)
  • Raspberry Pi (not included)

Hardware Connnection

The Raspberry Pi can share and connect up to three LED dot matrix screen panels. If there is only one panel, just connect the pins corresponding to the 😄 mark in the table below. [2]💥 and [3]💧 need to share the connection of the second and third panels at the same time.
The following table adds some icons for better visual distinction: [1]=😄, [2]=💥 and [3]=💧.

Note: If you just connect to a panel, just connect the pins of the 😄 icon.

Example Running Effect

Demo

1. Execute the following command to run the demo:

cd examples-api-use
sudo ./demo -D0 --led-no-hardware-pulse --led-cols=96 --led-rows=48 --led-pwm-lsb-nanoseconds 130 --led-pwm-bits=11 --led-brightness=100 --led-slowdown-gpio=4

2. The effect is shown in the figure below (the figure below is the demonstration effect of RGB-Matrix-64x32, for reference only.)

C-example

1. Execute the following command to run the demo:

sudo ./c-example -D0 --led-no-hardware-pulse --led-cols=96 --led-rows=48 --led-pwm-lsb-nanoseconds 130 --led-pwm-bits=11 --led-brightness=100 --led-slowdown-gpio=4

2. The effect is shown in the figure below (the figure below is the demonstration effect of RGB-Matrix-64x32, for reference only.)

Working With Arduino Mega2560

Hardware Connection

Prepare Materials

  • RGB-Matrix-P2.5-96 x 48-F (this product)
  • Arduino Mega2560 (not included)
Because Arduino Uno has only 32KB of memory, it is not suitable for displaying too many bitmaps and information on the LED matrix, so it is recommended to use Arduino Mega2560 with 256KB of memory.
