Background

Building the LED Panel for the LEDTRIKS was one of those ' do your mind in' jobs! Sitting down with a piece of pegboard, 768 LEDs, copper wire, and a day off was not what a lot of people call fun.

After some discussion in the Forum, it was decided to have fabricated a PCB panel for a LEDTRIKS controller. Optimum spacing was discussed, and 1/2 inch was agreed. Therefore, three PCBs of 8 x 8 inches would make a great panel.

Introduction to the LEDTRIKS LED Panel

Designed in 2008, the single 8 x 8 inch panel forms 1/3 of the full panel required for a LEDTRIKS display.
