Hyper Compact LED Matrix for Tiny Projects: 2826 Pixel-Matrix from MAKERPALS
Tiny projects call for tiny parts, and the hyper compact 2826 Pixel-Matrix does the job perfectly. Whether you’re working on a breadboard or creating a compact display, this matrix provides a high quality light show in a tight space! Designed from scratch to fill a gap in the market, this brilliant white PCB will really stand out in your components drawer.
With its extra small 2x2mm RGB LEDs, this is one of the tiniest LED matrixes available on the market. Clocking in at only 28.6 x 26.4 mm, this matrix is crazy small and perfect for use on a breadboard. Featuring DIP connections that fit directly into a breadboard, getting started with this matrix is extremely easy; connect it to an Arduino using only 3 wires, and get straight to coding!
There are two separate Arduino libraries that can be used to drive the LED matrix; the Adafruit Neopixel library or the FastLED library. The designer of this product, MAKERPALS, have uploaded an insightful video detailing their build process and how you can utilise this matrix. There are also detailed instructions available on how to program the matrix from scratch, as well as how to link it to a powerful matrix control software that makes the process super simple.
