Ardiuno 8*8 LED matrix display MAX7219
ARDUINO 8*8 LED MATRIX DISPLAY MAX7219 In this instructable I'm going to show you how to Interface with LED matrix using an Arduino and MAX7219 IC, this project can be used to make low resolution images using LEDs. This project is very simple to build and serves as a basics to getting started with controlling a large number of LEDs using the Arduino Uno. SEE THE FULL TUTORIAL VIDEO For this project we will be using the MAX7219 which is display driver IC, which works with SPI communication. An 8x8 LED matrix has 64 Pins in total if all the cathodes are connected together while an Arudino has only 14 digital pins, and the Arduino is not capable of providing 64 LEDs with enough current so we use the MAX7219, which needs only two Arduino pins to control the LEDS. Here is the list of components required to build this project - Arduino Uno 8x8 LED matrix with MAX7219 Jumper Wire Connections MAX7219 CLK => Arduino digital pin8 MAX7219 CS ...
