HT16K33 Breakout with Common Anode displays?

Post by notbot »

Hi, can the LED Matrix Driver Backpack - HT16K33 Breakout (https://www.adafruit.com/products/1427) be used with 7-segment displays that are common anode? Is there an example out there of how to wire a matrix for a few 7-segments in a way that will work with your example code? https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-LE ... ck-Library (actually any matrix wiring examples that work with that code would be helpful!)

Thank you!

Well, you can connect the anode to power and the driver pins to the cathodes. Your display login will be inverted, but otherwise, it should work with the library.
