“Works great with my Waveshare LED matrix. Has a great an easy to learn API for MicroPython and C++ that's reasonably comprehensive. Would be great if they supported an easier to learn compiled language such as Golang and had more small font options.
I notice that the brightness of my LED panel flickers slightly when the Pico is doing computationally heavy work. I'm not sure if this is due to the Interstate 75 W or the LED panel.”
“Super easy to use, I was up and running in a few minutes, how ever I should point out I had previously used the PicoGraphics library. Small, neat and tidily plugs into a Hub 75 led matrix. It is surprising how effective an image can be with only 64x64 pixels but text is a challenge, I'd recommend setting font to 'sans' at half scale with a thickness of 2, but some letters will be an approximation.”
“Excellent bit of kit! If only to avoid the need to connect loads of GPIO pins by jumper leads. This plugs straight into an LED matrix and is basically a Pico. The only problem is getting extra GPIO pins because the Interstate 75 uses most of them. I couldn't find any gpio extenders that work with MicroPython.”
