[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1584596, member: 108"] Hi, Looks cool Ty, How is your target going to work? The picture below doesn't look like much, but here is the latest thing I've been puttering around with for the last couple of weeks: [b][Broken External Image][/b] The idea here is a very tiny 5x7 led matrix that can display animations and scroll messages across it. Obviously being small it isn't going to look anything like a scrolling message sign you might see out in the world, but the plan is to use it for diagnostics, debugging, or even just a small display for an electrical project that otherwise wouldn't have one. It was designed to require only a small amount of parts, so it could be added to another project easily. What is going on in the picture is that the top breadboard is driving the display and the bottom breadboard is telling the top one what to display by using two wires to communicate with it.
