Speed up display (faster blinks)

Post by ukno »

I understand you can decrease the display speed by increasing the prescalar. Is there a way to speed up your display? Also there seems to be only set prescalars. Is it not fully adjustable? I need to adjust it for a rotating display at 800rpm with the outer led at about 4.5in radius and inner led at 2.75in. Any help would be useful. Thanks!

to speed up the display decrease the constant in the following line of code.

Code: Select all

  OCR1A = (uint16_t)10000;
there are comments in the code that describe the math.
