Adafruit RGB Matrix Shield for Arduino

Our RGB matrices, comprised of hundreds to thousands of individual RGB LEDs, offer superior density and efficiency compared to NeoPixels, making them an exceptional value. Crafted for seamless integration with Arduino-compatible boards such as the ATmega328p-based Metro 328, SAMD21, ESP32-S2, or SAMD51-based Metro M4, this shield simplifies your LED projects.No complicated connections; just a touch of soldering to attach headers. This shield takes the hassle out of wiring, letting you connect any RGB matrix effortlessly. Ideal for scrolling text and low-light apps, it allows usage from the Arduino’s 5V regulator for power needs under 800mA. For heavier projects, simply pair the 2x8 connector with a separate power source.While the Metro 328 supports up to 32x32 matrices, larger displays thrive on the Metro ESP32-S2 or M4, thanks to their ample RAM. Elevate your creative LED endeavors with precise engineering and robust support.
