==Introduction==
What's better than a single LED? Lots of LEDs! A fun way to make a small display is to use an 8x8 matrix. <br>
This module uses HT16K33 chip to drive an 8x8 dot matrix. <br>
Just need to use the I2C communication port of microcontroller to control the dot matrix, which can save more port resources of microcontroller.<br>
The four pin of this module is integrated into a crystal plug. <br>
All you need to do is connecting the module to control board for communication using an RJ11 cable.<br>
Besides, it comes with three DIP switches. You can randomly toggle the switch to select the I2C communication address.<br>
<br>
The address settings are as shown below.

<span style=color:red> '''Special Note:''' <br>
The sensor/module is equipped with the RJ11 6P6C interface, compatible with our keyestudio EASY plug Control Board with RJ11 6P6C interface. <br> If you have the control board of other brands, it is also equipped with the RJ11 6P6C interface but has different internal line sequence, can’t be used compatibly with our sensor/module. </span><br>
<br>

==Technical Details== 
*Interface: Easy plug
*Operating voltage: DC 4.5V-5.5V
*Comes with three DIP switches for address selection
*Dimensions：56mm*32mm*18mm
*Weight：15.2g

<br>
==Test Code==
*Download the library:<br>
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1cg90JqypbThqqhquhMEVZLq2CLzeYkrd

<pre>
#include <Matrix.h>
Matrix myMatrix(A4,A5);
uint8_t LedArray1[8]={0x00,0x18,0x24,0x42,0x81,0x99,0x66,0x00};
uint8_t  LEDArray[8];
void setup(){
myMatrix.begin(0x70);
}

void loop(){
  myMatrix.clear();
  for(int i=0; i<8; i++)
  {
    LEDArray[i]=LedArray1[i];
    for(int j=7; j>=0; j--)
    {
      if((LEDArray[i]&0x01)>0)
      myMatrix.drawPixel(j, i,1);
      LEDArray[i] = LEDArray[i]>>1;
    }
  }
  myMatrix.writeDisplay();
}
</pre>

<br>
<span style="color: red">'''Note: ''' before compiling the code, do remember to place the Matrix library folder into directory \Arduino\libraries. Otherwise, fail to compile the code. <br>
For example: C:\Program Files\Arduino\libraries

<br>
==Test Result==
Done uploading the code to the board, power on, you should see the 8*8 matrix displaying a heart image. Shown below.

<br>
==Settings Method==
'''1.Set the communication address.'''  Refer to the address chart. <br>
The code is set as below. 
<br>[[File:0395图片4.png|600px|frameless|thumb]] [[File:0395图片5.png|600px|frameless|thumb]]<br>  
<br>[[File:0395图片6.png|600px|frameless|thumb]]<br>  

<br>
'''2.Set the display image''' <br>
You can set the display image in the code shown below. 
<br>[[File:0395图片7.png|600px|frameless|thumb]]<br>  
<br>
Place the matrix module as follows: 
<br>[[File:0395图片8.png|600px|frameless|thumb]]<br>  
<br>
Then convert 0x00,0x18,0x24,0x42,0x81,0x99,0x66,0x00 into Binary number:<br>
*0x00 should be 0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  <br>
*0x18 should be 0  0  0  1  1  0  0  0  <br>
*0x24 should be 0  0  1  0  0  1  0  0  <br>
*0x42 should be 0  1  0  0  0  0  1  0  <br>
*0x81 should be 1  0  0  0  0  0  0  1  <br>
*0x99 should be 1  0  0  1  1  0  0  1  <br>
*0x66 should be 0  1  1  0  0  1  1  0  <br>
*0x00 should be 0  0  0  0  0  0  0  0  <br>

<br>
The first hexadecimal number represents the control of the first column of LEDs. The second data represents the control of the second column of LEDs. And so on.
<br>
The settings is converting Hexadecimal data into binary data 8-bit.<br>
The number 0 means LED off, and number 1 means LED on.<br>
The first converted number is controlling the first row of LED on and off, and so on.<br>

<br>

==Extension Experiment==
You can connect several modules to the shield, then connect them to control board, and change the communication address, controlling the matrix modules display different images.
