Micro Dot pHAT
Full kit ‐ Green PIM187 Full kit ‐Red PIM186 pHAT only PIM182
Red LED matrix (pair) COM0509 Green LED matrix (pair) COM0510
An unashamedly old school LED matrix display board, made up of six LED matrices
each 5x7 pixels (for an effective display area of 30x7) plus a decimal point, using the
beautiful little Lite‐On LTP‐305 matrices.
Use between 1 and 6 matrices in your choice of green and/or red. Perfect for building a retro
scrolling message display, a tiny 30-band spectrum analyser, or a retro clock.
Micro Dot pHAT also works well with our other pHATs and HATs. You could use it in
combination with pHAT DAC to display the audio spectrum, or with Enviro pHAT to display its
temperature, pressure and light readings.
The MagPi said that Micro Dot pHAT was
"certainly a cut above the standard seven-segment
alternative"
in their four star review.
Available either as a bare pHAT or as a kit with 6 red or green LED modules (you'll need
to solder them yourself)
