<strong>Description:</strong> The Serial Alphanumeric Display Driver allows you to communicate with alphanumeric displays over a simple SPI interface. Based on the A6282 IC, these boards work well with all of our alphanumeric displays and we have even provided a library listed below.</p>
<p>
You can daisy-chain as many displays as you would like to create scrolling messages. Each board has both input and output headers that connect to each other. All you need to do is define the number of displays and your message. Check the example code below.</p>
<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> This product includes only the carrier board. You will need to provide your own alphanumeric display. Check the related products below for ones that will work.</p>
