This 8x8 Amber LED matrix is just 1.2 inches on each side, perfectly sized for breadboard projects, and boasts the vibrant hue of 64 deep amber LEDs organized in a clear grid pattern.
The matrix features 16 pins, 8 on each side, with 0.1-inch spacing for seamless integration, making your electronic setups easier to configure and modify.
To achieve a smooth scrolling sign or visual display, you'll need a 1:8 multiplex control. We recommend pairing it with a MAX7219 for straightforward management or combining a 74HC595 with a TPIC6B595 for direct control over anodes and cathodes.
The LED panel’s deeper amber color sets it apart aesthetically, though it may not match colors with other light arrays. It offers a perfect orchestrated illumination that can be efficiently programmed through available Arduino resources and tutorials.
