split Dout Matrix digits/"normal" leds

MIDIbox NG

Hi all,

 

can i use free dout_sel pins as regular row selection outputs

if less than 8 digits are controlled from my dout matrix?

For example:

to create a 6 digits + 2x8 led matrix?

 

 

Best regards

Hi,

 

unfortunately I can’t support this. A SR which is serviced by the matrix code will always be fully allocated, otherwise very time consuming read-modify-write operations on the DOUT array would be required (32 times due to the dim feature!), which affects the overall performance of the application dramatically.

 

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Hi Thorsten,

 

unfortunately I can’t support this.

 

OK this is no big issue.

I will use a additional SR.
