RGB Panel Wing Specs

Sorry, there hasn't been any documentation made for this Wing yet, I'm too busy trying to keep the Papilio DUO manufacturing on track... 

 

The eagle design files are here:

https://github.com/GadgetFactory/Papilio-Wings/tree/master/BPW5046-RGB-LED-Panel

 

The technical information for the panel can be found here:

https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12584

 

It looks like the panel supports 3.3-5V so you should probably use 3.3V for the supply voltage.

 

I hope to work on a DesignLab example for this Wing soon, Alvie already has all the code ready to go, it just needs to be made DesignLab compatible.

 

Jack.

Jack,

 

Thanks for your response.

 

I was hoping to work out as much of this as I can on my own. Your Wing will save a lot of time. I've already hooked up a 32X32 panel pin by pin twice, once to an Altera DEO-Nano and once to an Arduino. I couldn't get the DEO-Nano to work with the panel. That's why I bought a Papilio One. It looked as though the learning materials along with the board itself were more approachable. That has turned out to be true.

 

At any rate, I did get the Arduino to work with the panel so I plan to use the Arduino code as a reference and see how far I can get and then come back to the code  Alvie has done and you will have adapted. I also came across this tutorial:
