Hi all,
I'm building a midi controller using a Teensy++ 2.0, for which I'd like to use several daisy-chained Mcp23017s i2c chips to extend my number of digital inputs and a bunch of Tlc5940s to drive a matrix of RGB leds. However, both IC's use the 1 pin on the Teensy, the Mcp23017 as SDA line for the i2c bus and the Tlc5940 for the GSCLK connection in the Tlc5940 Library. I tried assigning the GSCLK to another PWM-enabled pin (15) in the Tlc5940 library but that didn't seem to work
Can the Tlc5940 only work from pin 1? If so, would it be feasible to use two Teensy's? Probably not, as uI would also need the i2c bus to connect/sync them, right? Any thoughts?
Thanks!
