HC16K33 LED Matrix

Post by deshipu » Thu May 05, 2016 11:58 am

I just made a very simple library for talking to the HC16K33-based LED matrices, such as the Adafruit LED backpacks. I have only tested it on the ESP8266 port, but I think it should work on other ports without modification. The code is at https://bitbucket.org/thesheep/micropython-ht16k33/

Enjoy!

I just added a second module, for handling of 14-segment and 7-segment displays. However, the 7-segment display is guess work and untested, as I don't have such backpack to test. If anybody has Adafruit's 7seg backpack, I would be very grateful for testing.
