A 32×16 full-colour RGB LED matrix panel with 512 individually addressable pixels at 6mm pitch. Each LED can display any colour, making this panel suitable for text, animations, and graphics. The high-brightness LEDs and wide 160° viewing angle work well for both indoor and outdoor installations.
The panel features IDC input and output connectors for cascading multiple panels into larger displays. Requires at least 13 digital GPIO pins to drive. For four or more panels, a higher-performance controller such as an Arduino Mega 2560 or Raspberry Pi is recommended.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- DC
- DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
- GPIO
- General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, the three primary colours of light that are mixed in varying amounts to make a wide range of colours. In electronics RGB can refer to an LED or pixel that blends these three colours, or to a colour signal or interface that carries separate red, green and blue channels.
