Description
A dot matrix LED is a display device used to display information on machines, stock market, stadiums, bank, train and bus station display panels and many other devices requiring a simple display device of limited resolution.
The display consists of a dot matrix of lights or mechanical indicators arranged in a rectangular configuration such that by switching on or off selected lights, text or graphics can be displayed. A dot matrix controller converts instructions from a processor into signals which turns on or off lights in the matrix so that the required display is produced.
