Sometimes I + just want to pop a piece of LED tape or two somewhere, but I don't need a full 32 channels of control. I ended up + thinking that a smaller version of the 32-channel driver that didn't require a separate control computer would be + handy. So I sat down and designed a variant of the design with only 8 channels instead of 32 and an on-board ESP8266_ + module instead of the RS485_ transceiver for WiFi connectivity. --- Project motivation |
