Gorillacell Module 012: 16x8 Dot Matrix I2C
Table of Contents
This module functions similarly to the 16×8 Dot Matrix Display with an SPI interface but uses a different driver chip and communication protocol.
The Gorillacell ESP32 Development Kit comes with one (1) piece of 16×8 Dot Matrix Display module, driven by the HT16K33 driver chip. This driver simplifies wiring connections and provides an I²C communication interface for easy integration.
