Please see the above code, NUM_STRIPS is changed from 8 to 16 and Port D is changed to Port DC.

It's literally just the FastLED parallel output demo #include<FastLED.h> #define NUM_LEDS_PER_STRIP 10 // Note: this can be 12 if you're using a teensy 3 and don't mind soldering the pads on the back #define NUM_STRIPS 8 CRGB leds[NUM_STRIPS * NUM_LEDS_PER_STRIP]; // Pin layouts on the...

Issue 1) Even connecting only 8 strands but running in 16 way output does not work, but 8 strands with 8 way output does work. Same 8 strands both times. Port D for 8 way, or the first 8 of Port DC for 16 way. Issue 2) Sorry I should have clarified: only when running a sketch in parallel...

I'm having a problem(s) that I'm not sure is software or hardware. I'm trying to use a Teensy 3.1 with FastLED 16 way parallel output. Issue 1) 8 way parallel output works fine, but running 16 does nothing (although the onboard LED does come on). There are 14 strands of 10 LEDs each...

Hi Constantin Forgive my ignorance by I don't have a lot of experience working with electronics. Are you saying use two different voltage regulators, one for the LEDs and another for the Teensy? Right now I'm using a 5V 6A regulator for both. Is there any advantage to running the Teensy at...

Thanks for the fast response Paul. I got a voltmeter and checked the Teensy and got nothing out of the pins. I then checked the voltage regulator. The regulator must be defective because it's putting out the input current (7.4 V). It seems I inadvertently destroyed my Teensy. Looks like I'm...

My Teensy 3.1 board does not seem to be working, is there a way I can check if the board died? Issue I was trying (and successfully had in the past) to light a 10 LED strip of WS2812B with a battery power source. Two 3.7V LiPo's in series connected to a 5V step down regulator...
