Hi everyone!
I have been following several threads here very closely and making a lot of notes. I am looking at a project that is similar to those posted here but it uses 32 RGB SMT LEDs. I like the Maxim chips and have already downloaded all of the spec and application docs from their site.
What I need to figure out is which uC would be best for this project. I have been playing with TI's MSP430's, but I am not sure if this is the best one for the job. What do you guys recommend?
The company I am doing this work for wants all of the LEDs mounted on a 1" strip of flex-circuit strip approximately 30" in length. This strip is connected to the main controller board by an edge connector. If I have to use a matrix, do you think the 1" strip could accommodate this? (The connector to the controller board is located at the middle of the strip.)
Thanks!
Gerry
