NewProds 2/8/23 Feat. Adafruit NeoKey BFF for Mechanical Key Add-On for QT Py & Xiao-MX Compatible!

We’ve got the New nEw NEW for you right here:


NEW PRODUCTS THIS WEEK


i2c / SPI character LCD backpack – STEMMA QT / Qwiic

Character LCDs are a fun and easy way to have your microcontroller project talk back to you. They are also common, and easy to get, available in tons of colors and sizes. We’ve written tutorials on using character LCDs with an Arduino (or similar microcontroller) but find that the number of pins necessary to control the LCD can be restrictive, especially with ambitious projects. We wanted to make a ‘backpack’ (add-on circuit) that would reduce the number of pins without a lot of expense.

Adafruit Bicolor LED Square Pixel Matrix with I2C Backpack – Qwiic / STEMMA QT

What’s better than a single LED? Lots of LEDs! A fun way to make a small colorful display is to use a 1.2″ Bi-color 8×8 LED Matrix. Matrices like these are ‘multiplexed’ – so to control all the 128 LEDs you need 24 pins. That’s a lot of pins, and there are driver chips like the MAX7219 that can help control a matrix for you but there’s a lot of wiring to set up and they take up a ton of space. Here at Adafruit we feel your pain! After all, wouldn’t it be awesome if you could control a matrix without tons of wiring? That’s where these adorable LED matrix backpacks come in.
