Adafruit 7-Segment Backpack - 1.2" Tall Digits
All prices are VAT included
By popular request, you can now get our 1.2" Tall 7-Segment LED backpacks without the LEDs! These backpacks feature an HT16K33 I2C LED driver, they're simple and easy to use - you can use our very nice library for the backpacks to get running in under half an hour . If you've been eyeing matrix displays but hesitated because of the complexity, this is the solution you've been looking for!
Like our other LED backpacks, these are end-to-end stackable and by soldering the address jumpers on the back you can have up to 8 backpacks all sharing the same two I2C wires!
Comes with a fully tested and assembled LED backpack & some header. Some light soldering is required to attach the header and, of course, the display.
A 1.2" 7-segment matrix display is not included , but we have lots of options in the store ! We only know that this backpack works with the ones we stock. Other 1.2" 7-segment displays may not work, we don't guarantee 'em.
New! As of June 13, 2023 we have updated this board to have a 5V boost converter which means you can use it with 3.3V power and get nice bright LED segments without having to wire up a separate 5V power supply. It also has Stemma QT ports for plug-n-play connectivity
