ColorduinoV1.3 DS

The Colorduino is an RGB LED matrix driver platform based on an ATMega 328P microprocessor. It uses hardware PWM and constant current drivers to control LEDs, freeing up the microprocessor for other tasks. The Colorduino supports 8-bit color control with 6-bit correction for each color pixel. It allows for easy cascading of multiple boards and programming via an Arduino IDE. Key specifications include a 60x60mm PCB, 5V-7.5V power input, 16MHz PWM, 500mA current channels, and UART/IIC communication.

Colorduino
-Magic RGB LED matrix driver platform

Overview

The Colorduino is a RGB LED matrix driver platform basis on ATMega 328P. This
design is to make user easily modify or write the firmware of Colorduino by
Arduino IDE. Colorsduino pairs the M54564 with a single DM163 constant
current driver. By using the DM163, the Colors shield gains three 8+6-bit
channels of hardware PWM control of the LEDs freeing up the MCU from having
to implement it in software. This gives the ATmega more CPU bandwidth for
performing other tasks. Colorduino is easy to cascade by IIC and Power
interface.

Features
8bits colors support with 6bits correction for each color in every dots
Hardware 16MHz PWM support
Without any external circuits, play and shine
Dedicated GPIO and ADC interface
Hardware UART and IIC communication with easy cascading
24 constant current channels of 100mA each
8 super source driver channels of 500mA each
