scroll:bit

scroll:bit is a little display with a lot of pixels! Its 119 bright white LEDs are perfect for scrolling messages with your micro:bit, or for animations, graphs, and more!

Just slot in your micro:bit, then code scroll:bit with the block-based Microsoft MakeCode editor, or with MicroPython in the Mu code editor. It works in a very similar way to the built-in red LED matrix on your micro:bit, so if you've used that then you'll know exactly what to do.

Features

• 17x7 matrix of bright white pixels (119 total)
• Individual PWM brightness control of each pixel
• Uses the IS31FL3731 LED matrix driver chip
• Compatible with micro:bit
• Microsoft MakeCode and MicroPython support
• No soldering required!

Software 

You can code scroll:bit with the block-based Microsoft MakeCode editor, that'll get you started with the concepts of how to code a matrix of LEDs or, if you want to delve deeper, then you can use MicroPython in the Mu code editor.
