Hey guys! Been awhile, how's it going?
I'm working on a project, making a watch, and looking to use 24 RGB LEDs and a MCU, probably MSP430
Usually I would jump on some shift registers, but I'm looking for the highest viewing pleasure per energy consumption bang for my buck, so I'm trying to decide which is better, multiplexing or shift registers or some other scheme, and not finding a lot of help online. Viewing pleasure concerns would be things like errant flickers, nice high refresh rate, PWM for adjustable brightness, etcetera. Easy to code is a bonus.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
