Mini Scrolling LED Sign Kit
This is a great
kit to help you build your electronics knowledge, plus when you're done
building it you'll have a product that you'll actually use. No effort
has been spared in designing a nice product.
This scrolling sign has 96 different characters, and can store messages
up to 80 characters long. The messages are stored in memory even after
power-down, so it'll be there when you turn it back on. The scroll rate
is adjustable to 8 different speeds (including stopped) and you can
manually scroll using the left and right buttons.
An intuitive 4-button interface that lets you enter messages quickly.
You can also connect it directly to your computer and type in messages
with your keyboard. Electronics enthusiasts will find this device a
great tool when connected to another microcontroller.
This kit comes with all the parts you need to build a very cool
scrolling LED sign, including a professional quality double sided
circuit board, a programmed microcontroller (this kit is based on
Microchip's PIC16F628A), and high brightness red LED displays (the image
below gives no credit to the brilliant bright red). We even include
extra parts to let you adjust the display brightness (and power
consumption). A 7-12V 100mA power source is required. The kit includes a
plug that can be soldered to any power wires (say, from a battery or old
wall adapter). We also sell a power supply separately that already has
the correct plug adapter.
