Keyestudio EASY plug IIC I2C 8*8 LE D Dot Matrix Display for Arduino STEAM

The Keyestudio EASY plug 8x8 LED Dot Matrix Display is an easy-to-use visual module designed for students, educators, and makers looking to add simple graphics or character displays to their Arduino projects. Featuring the HT16K33 driver chip and a convenient RJ11 connection, this module integrates seamlessly with the EASY plug control board to simplify wiring and programming.

Efficient HT16K33 driver chip

This module uses the HT16K33 chip to drive the 8x8 LED dot matrix. By handling the multiplexing internally, it frees up your microcontroller to focus on running your main program.

Resource-saving I2C communication

The display communicates using the I2C protocol, requiring only the standard I2C pins of your microcontroller. This saves valuable general-purpose input/output ports for other sensors and actuators.

Solderless RJ11 connection

The four control pins are integrated into a single RJ11 crystal plug. This allows you to connect the display to an EASY plug control board using a standard RJ11 cable, eliminating wiring errors.

EASY plug ecosystem compatibility

This module is specifically designed to be used with the Keyestudio EASY plug control board. It is not compatible with standard breadboard jumpers without modification.

Compact physical dimensions

Measuring 56mm by 32mm by 18mm and weighing just 14.7g, this compact module is easy to mount onto custom chassis or educational robot kits.

Electrical and display specifications

The module operates on a supply voltage of 4.5V to 5.5V. While featuring an 8x8 physical matrix, the underlying driver supports a maximum display configuration of up to 16x8.
