{"title":"Small 1.2 8x8 Ultra Bright Yellow-Green LED Matrix [KWM-30881CUGB]","handle":"small-1-2-8x8-ultra-bright-yellow-green-led-matrix-kwm-30881cugb","url":"/products/small-1-2-8x8-ultra-bright-yellow-green-led-matrix-kwm-30881cugb","description":"This compact 8×8 yellow-green LED matrix packs 64 ultra-bright LEDs into a 1.2\" square footprint. With 0.1\"-spaced pins on each side, it plugs directly into a breadboard — one row per side — making it easy to prototype scrolling signs, animations, and small displays without any additional hardware mounts.\n\nThe matrix uses a common multiplexed grid arrangement and requires 1:8 multiplex control. Drive it with a 74HC595 and TPIC6B595 shift register pair, or simplify your wiring with a single MAX7219 LED driver IC, which handles all the multiplexing for you.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nResolution – 8×8 grid (64 LEDs total)\n\nColour – Ultra-bright yellow-green\n\nSize – 1.2\" (approx. 30mm) per side\n\nPin Pitch – 0.1\" (2.54mm) — standard breadboard compatible\n\nPins – 16 total (8 per side)\n\nDrive Method – 1:8 multiplexed (requires shift registers or a driver IC)\n\nPart Number – KWM-30881CUGB\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nScrolling text and sign displays\nAnimation and pixel art projects\nArduino and microcontroller display experiments\nLearning LED matrix multiplexing techniques\n\n\nResources\n\nArduino Playground: MAX7219 & 8×8 LED Matrix Tutorials\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":6865,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-1045","price":9.65,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":25,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
