LED backpack with common anode display?

Post by bespezzano »

Hi, I'm new to electronics so please bear with me ;)

I have some HT16K33 backpacks with some common cathode displays and it's working great. Now, I have a common anode display that I would like to use (it's one of those yellow-green ones that you can't get anymore apparently), is there any way I can use it with the backpack?

Thanks,

Bruno

I see no indication in the HT16K33 datasheet (https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/datasheet ... 33v110.pdf) that it can driver common anode LED displays.
