IS31FL3236 LED Driver

Post by ChrisT66 »

Hello, I would like to control more than 20 LEDs via an LED driver (IS31FL3236). The lighting behavior of the LEDs is constantly changing. So far I have done this via an I/O port of the mC. Unfortunately, the IS31FL3236 is not supported by Flowcode. It is controlled via I²C. So it should be possible via Flowcode.
Unfortunately, I have never done this before. Does anyone have any tips on how I can get to grips with this?
Thank you very much! Greetings Christian

Hi Christian,

If you search for that device, you will find a datasheet with details of the I2C interface. You will need to create an embedded project within Flowcode using a chip of your choice. Add an I2C Master component and configure this to the appropriate channel for your hardware. More details and examples on using this component can be found in the wiki entry.
