LED Charlieplexed Matrix - 9x16 LEDs - Blue

OverviewPinoutWiringRelated groups
LED Charlieplexed Matrix - 9x16 LEDs - Blue — Adafruit — 2973

These are 9x16 Charlieplexed LEDs designed to match with the Adafruit 16x9 Charlieplexed PWM LED Matrix Driver - IS31FL3731. You don't get any resistors or driver chips with this grid, its just a mess of LEDs in a charlieplexed arrangement

Displays

Character LCDs, SPI TFTs, e-paper modules and larger capacitive-touch TFT panels solve different display jobs. Treat display class, interface, controller, resolution, touch, refresh behaviour, storage, voltage and mounting as separate swap checks.
