MOD-RGB - MODULE FOR CONTROLLING RGB LED STRIP

MOD-RGB is a completely open-source module suitable for controlling LED strips. The LED strips might be of the same color or different colors. The board can be controlled via I2C or DMX interfaces (led on the UEXT connector). The board has short-circuit protection and can provide up to 5A to each strip channel. Olimex also provides a full range of examples for MOD-RGB interfacing via your favorite A13, iMX233, RPi, Olimexino, etc board
