Hi All.
Anyone know if the version of FastLED that installs with Teensyduino supports the use of Hardware SPI when DotStar LEDS (APA102) are connected to Hardware SPI-capable pins?
I’ve run these LEDs with a T3.2 using both the HW SPI pins and regular GPIO. There are no compile-time messages from FastLED that it’s resorting to bit band SPI with the latter. I thought there might be such messages as they appear when using an ESP8266 Huzzah. Ironically, even when connected to the ESP8266’s HW SPI.
Follow-up question: If this version of FastLED does support HW SPI, does it also do so on the 2 additional HW SPI ports available on T3.5 and T3.6?
I just don’t have enough C++ knowledge yet to work my way through all the twists and turns in the FastLED library code to figure it out for myself. It’s quite complex.
Thanks.
