Pink Scroll pHAT HD

Pink Scroll pHAT HD for Raspberry Pi

The Scroll pHAT HD packs a whole heap of red LED pixels (17×7 pixels, with a total amount of 119 pixels) onto one single pHAT, which gives you a complete PWM brightness control of each pixel. PWM stands for “pulse-width modulation”.

Thanks to the individual brightness pixel control, you can control each single pixel and produce fascinating animations, anti-aliased text, scroll messages and so much more.

You can use your Scroll pHAT HD in many, many ways. It can be used as a scrolling message display for your tweets, to know the news, to check the weather, or you may also decide to use it for your audio as a 17-band spectrum analyser. Furthermore, Scroll pHAT HD amount of pixels allows you to play simple classic games like Tetris, Snake, Pong and others.
