Overview
The Pmod8LD has eight high-bright LEDs that
are driven by logic-level transistors so each
LED can be illuminated with a logic high signal
that provides less than 1mA of current.
Features include:
•
eight high bright green LEDs
•
a 12-pin system connector
•
a transistor amplifier system that allows
low-power logic-level control
•
small form factor (0.80” x 1.10”).
Functional Description
Each LED can be activated separately or
simultaneously. To activate an LED, the pin
connected to the LED must receive about 1mA
of current.
The LED module has a 12-pin header for easy
connection to a Digilent system board. For
some boards, using a 6-pin cable for
connection may be preferable, especially with
6-pin headers.
For older boards, a Digilent Modular Interface
Board (MIB) and a 6-pin cable may be needed.
The MIB plugs into the system board, and the
cable connects the MIB to the LED module.
