Teensy 2++ Midi controller - need advise regarding RGB Led and Serial LCD
Hi,
I'm in the process of designing a midi controller, using Teensy 2++, and need advice regarding components and compatibility.
1. RGB leds - I plan on using 8 x 30mm Sanwa buttons + RGB led rings (I've found these).
Assuming I want separate control over each ring (both of its power and color), :
- Do I need to allocate 3 pins for each ring?
- Is there any Teensy 2 compatible led controller that can control these RGB rings?
2. It would be nice to be able to receive some feedback on the controller (regarding its status, configuration, etc.).
- Is SparkFun Serial LCD (serlcd.h) fully compatible with Teensy 2++? Anyone had any experience with this?
It seems much easier to use (using only one pin) than the standard HD44780 LCD.
Thank you!
