Title: Use LED-ROPE-5 on A20 board
Post by: megamax on March 25, 2014, 01:15:28 PM
Is it possible use of the product "LED-ROPE-5" in the A20 board with a library or other easy way? I can't find anything about in this forum or in the web.
Thanks.

I don't know much about these but a similar device running the WS2801/11 requires specific timing and I see that the Arduino code is done in assembly so I can only assume it's critical.

Adafruit website states that devices they have with the same IC can't be used with Linux so it would depend on if you where planning to code this direct or try to run from an OS?
