By popular request, you can now purchase our 1.2" Tall 7-Segment LED backpacks without the LEDs. These backpacks are equipped with the HT16K33 I2C LED driver, making them simple and easy to use. With our user-friendly library, you'll be up and running in under 30 minutes! Perfect for those who want to use matrix displays without dealing with the complexity.
Like our other LED backpacks, these are end-to-end stackable. By soldering the address jumpers on the back, you can connect up to 8 backpacks on a single I2C bus, sharing just two wires.
The kit comes with a fully tested and assembled LED backpack, along with some header pins. You'll need to do a bit of light soldering to attach the header and the display.
Please note that a 1.2" 7-segment matrix display is not included, but we have plenty of compatible options in the store. We cannot guarantee compatibility with other 1.2" 7-segment displays.
New as of June 13, 2023, this board has been updated with a 5V boost converter, allowing you to power it with 3.3V and still enjoy bright LED segments. It also features Stemma QT ports for easy plug-and-play connectivity, making setup even simpler!
