The product number of Microduino-Dot Matrix is: MSDL31
Microduino-Dot Matrix is a 8x8 colorful LED displaying dot matrix module, which can be used singly or by the cascade of multiple(combine into different shapes), to display text or images, or even simple animation.
Features
- 8x8 dot matrix, the size is 60mm*60mm
- The display quality of the color of each point is 15-level, three RGB primary colors are 32-grade adjustable, and the whole is 32k-color to display.
- Supports IIC communication protocol, the IIC address is settable(1~64), and the dot matrix sequence adopts rectangular plane coordinate system.
- With 2 IIC interfaces onboard, which make the cascade of multiple dot matrix easy.

Hardware Setup
- Referring to the following diagram, connect the Sensor-Dot Matrix-Color to the port I2C of Microduino-Sensorhub.
Method to Set the Address of the Dot Matrix
- The range of the address of the dot matrix is 1~64.
- After being powered, the number of the green points displayed on the dot matrix represents the address of the dot matrix.
- During 3s after the dot matrix is powered, pressing the button on the back can enter address configuration state, and at this time, the dot matrix changes into white.
- Pressing the button slowly (the interval is larger than 0.5s)will add the address
- Pressing the button quickly(the interval is less than 0.5s)will reduce the address
- After setting the address, long press the button for 3s, to exit the address configuration state.
Introduction of the Code
- Define the IIC address single dot matrix
uint8_t Addr[MatrixPix_X][MatrixPix_Y] = { //1x1
{ 64}
};
- Define the IIC address of 2x2 cascade dot matrix.
uint8_t Addr[MatrixPix_X][MatrixPix_Y] = { //2x2
{ 64, 63},
{ 62, 61}
};
- Define the IIC address of 1x4 cascade dot matrix.
uint8_t Addr[MatrixPix_X][MatrixPix_Y] = { //1x4
{ 64, 63, 62 , 61}
};
- Get the number of devices which have already been connected.
int16_t getMatrixNum()
- Get the IIC address of devices which have already been connected.
getDeviceAddr(_a) //num
- Get the number of the dot matrix on X axis.
getWidth()
- Get the number of the dot matrix on Y axis.
getHeight()
- Set the on or off of the dot matrix coordinate pixel.
setLed(_row, _col, _state) //row, col, state
- Set the color of the dot matrix coordinate pixel.
setLedColor(_row, _col, _r, _g, _b) //row, col, red, green ,blue
clearDisplay()
- Set the color of the dot matrix.
setColor(_r, _g, _b) //red, green ,blue
- The characters are displayed flowingly.
writeString(_c, _t, _col) //[char*], time, col
drawBMP(_row, _col , _w, _h, logo) //row, col, width, height, file
drawBMP(_row, _col, logo) //row, col, file
- Use function to draw a solid rectangle
drawBox(_row, _col, _w, _h) //row, col, width, height
- Draw a solid rounded rectangle.
drawRBox(_row, _col, _w, _h, _r) //row, col, width, height, rad
drawFrame(_row, _col, _w, _h) //row, col, width, height
- Draw a rounded hollow rounded rectangle
drawRFrame(_row, _col, _w, _h, _r) //row, col, width, height, rad
drawCircle(_row, _col, _r) //row, col, rad
drawDisc(_row, _col, _r) //row, col, rad
drawLine(_row, _col, _row1, _col1) //row start, col start, row end, col end
