  • Hi, I know it says MAX7219 in the description, but it looks from the picture on the Adafruit page like it's actually something else... I think HT16K33.

    Adafruit's driver looks quite simple though, so you should be able to get up and running quite quick...

    I2C1.setup({scl:B6, sda:B7});
    I2C1.writeTo(0x70, 0x21); // turn on oscillator
    I2C1.writeTo(0x70, 0x81); // disp on
    I2C1.writeTo(0x70, 0xE0 | 15); // brightness 15
    
    // not sure about this, you may need 16,8,1
    var g = Graphics.createArrayBuffer(8,8,2); 
    g.flip = function() {
      I2C1.writeTo(0x70, 0, g.buffer); 
    };
    
    
    g.drawLine(0,0,8,8);
    g.flip();
