That's where this lovely 16x8 LED matrix backpack PCB comes in. It contains a HT16K33 I2C LED matrix driver that does all the multiplexing work for you, and is controlled over the two I2C pins. It's easy to use, has a portable library that runs on any of our Feathers to turn on\/off each LED.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16x8 backpack is also great for making scrolling displays or small video displays.  In our example, we set it up to display small bitmap emoticons but you can also display text that moves - kind of like a sign in front of a miniature car dealership.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit comes with:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA fully tested and assembled 16x8 0.8\" LED FeatherWing \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x ultra-bright square 8x8 matrices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x 16-pin header\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bit of soldering is required to attach the two matrices onto the FeatherWing but its very easy to do and only takes about 15 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board\/chip uses 12C 7-bit address between 0x70-0x77, selectable with jumpers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatherWing Dimensions: 51mm x 23mm x 5mm \/ 2.0\" x 0.9\" x 0.2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatherWing Weight: 6.3g \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini LED Matrix Display Dimensions: 20mm x 20mm x 6mm \/ 0.8\" x 0.8\" x 0.2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini LED Matrix Display Height w\/ Pins: 13mm \/ 0.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini LED Matrix Display Weight: 3g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatrix Datasheet\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/956datasheet.pdf?2583605369288397613\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eBlue\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/1624datasheet.pdf?16708278964665802156\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eGreen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/454datasheet.pdf?16775522507455162830\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eRed\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/860datasheet.pdf?4358231994367484272\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eYellow\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/1079datasheet.pdf?12543197363013835870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eWhite\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/861datasheet.pdf?11840326529424529473\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eYellow-Green\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Blue","offer_id":21039042311,"sku":"ADA3150","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Green","offer_id":21039042375,"sku":"ADA3151","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Red","offer_id":21039042439,"sku":"ADA3152","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow","offer_id":21039042503,"sku":"ADA3153","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"White","offer_id":21039042567,"sku":"ADA3149","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Yellow-Green","offer_id":3076720394250,"sku":"ADA3154","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/3150.jpg?v=1463491917","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-0-8-8x16-led-matrix-featherwing-display-kit","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
