Thanks, it reports 0.6.3 now.
What pins should I be using? I don't know the conventions and expected
usages. I'm wiring OE to ground, and driving SDI, CLK, and LE.
44 LED light bar:
Based on the STP08CL596 chip made by ST.
There are six IC's. Five control forty LED's(eight each...) and one IC
controls a group of four.
Serial data goes to the first chip's SDI pin then it outputs serial data to
the next chip via the SDO pin.
Pin out:
J1 Connector Pin Out (Pin 6 is on the ond of the bar)
1: SDI (to the first chip)
2: CLK (to all chips)
3: /LE (to all chips)
4: /OE (to all chips)
5: Ground (to all chips)
6: 3.3vDC (to all chips)
debian@beaglebone:~/update$ node -pe
"require('bonescript').getPlatform().bonescript"
0.6.3
