32x32 RGB LED Matrix Panel - 6mm pitch

These panels are normally used to make video walls, They have 1024 bright RGB LEDs arranged in a 32x32 grid on the front on a 6mm grid. On the back, there is a PCB with a set of dual IDC connectors (one input, one output: in theory you can chain these together) and 12 16-bit latches that allow you to drive the display with a 1:16 scan rate. These panels require 13 digital pins (6-bit data, 7-bit control) and a good 5V supply, up to 4A per panel. We suggest our 4A regulated 5V adapter and then connecting a 2.1mm jack. Please check out our tutorial for more details!

These displays are technically 'chainable' - connect one output to the next input - as long as you have the RAM to handle it

Comes with

• A single 32x32 RGB panel
• An IDC cable
• A plug-in power cable

Note!

These displays are designed to be driven by FPGAs or other high-speed processors: they do not have built-in PWM control of any kind. Instead, you're supposed to redraw the screen over and over to 'manually' PWM the whole thing. This display does best with a high speed, high RAM microcontroller like a SAMD21, SAMD51, ESP32, etc. The good news is that the display is pre-white balanced with nice uniformity so if you turn on all the LEDs it's not a particularly tinted white.

You'll need 13 digital pins, and about 1600 bytes of RAM to buffer the 12-bit color image. You cannot use this size panel with an Arduino UNO (ATmega328) or ATmega32u4 - you need a chip with more RAM!
