The 64×64 RGB LED Matrix with 3mm pitch features 4096 bright RGB LEDs in a 192×192mm panel. This high-density display offers a good balance between pixel density and panel size, suitable for indoor signage and video wall applications.
This panel uses a non-standard 5-address (ABCDE) multiplexing system. Many standard drivers only support 4-address (ABCD) setups. Compatible controllers include the RGB Matrix Bonnet for Raspberry Pi, RGB Matrix HAT (both require a solder jumper), and Matrix Portal (jumper required). Arduino shields with the Adafruit library and HDMI driver boards do not support 5-address multiplexing. The SmartLED Shield with Teensy 3.5/3.6 has the hardware for 5-address panels and sufficient RAM, but the power plug must be manually soldered or adapted due to shield overlap.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- HDMI
- HDMI is a common digital video and audio connection used by computers, media players, and many displays. If a display kit has HDMI input, it is usually much easier to test with a single-board computer because it can act like a normal monitor.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- RAM
- RAM is temporary memory used while a device is running, and its contents are lost when power is removed. A “Run in RAM” mode is useful for testing settings without permanently programming the module, but it may not support every feature.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, usually referring to an LED that can mix those three colours. It matters because controlling an RGB LED teaches how separate outputs combine to create different colours.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
- solder jumper
- A solder jumper is a small pair or group of pads on a circuit board that can be bridged or cut with solder to change a hardware setting. It matters because changing modes may require careful soldering rather than just changing software.
