## Description

Add letters, numbers and symbols to your project with red fourteen-segment digits that are much more flexible than a basic seven-segment display. This Qwiic display connects over I2C, so you can plug it in without soldering, without working out SDA and SCL by hand, and without adding separate voltage regulation or level translation.The onboard VK16K33 LED driver is controlled with I2C commands and can light individual segments, including the decimal point or colon. The SparkFun Alphanumeric Display Arduino library makes printing strings as easy as calling the print() function, and it also supports scrolling text across the display.I2C address jumpers on the back let you configure the display address, allowing up to four displays on the same bus. The slim board design includes detachable stand off holes, vertical Qwiic connectors and internal mounting holes for easier installation in panels, enclosures and prototypes.It fits into the SparkFun Qwiic Connect ecosystem, which uses a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector for I2C sensors, actuators, shields and cables. Documentation and libraries are available for Arduino, Python, MicroPython and CircuitPython workflows.Features:Red displayIntegrated RC oscillator13×3 matrix key scan circuit16-step dimming circuit2x Qwiic connectors2x Wall Mounting PointsQwiic connection: Plug-and-go I2C connection with polarised 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connectorsText support: Display numbers, characters and symbolsArduino library: Print strings using the print() functionScrolling: Scroll your string across the displayAddress configuration: Communicate with up to four displays on the same busSpecifications:Display: Red displayOperating Voltage: 3.3VIntegrated RC oscillator: Integrated RC oscillatorMaximum display segment numbers: 128 patternsMatrix key scan circuit: 13×3Dimming circuit: 16-stepI2C Addresses: 0x70 (0x71, 0x72, 0x73)Qwiic connectors: 2xWall Mounting Points: 2xA handy display module for status messages, counters, clocks, test fixtures and other compact I2C projects using Qwiic-compatible boards.
