Matrix - LED
Contents
1 Introduction
Matrix-LED是一个简单的发光二极管模块。3-Pin 2.54mm排针,V接电源,G接地,S信号通过一个三极管放大控制LED的导通或关闭。您可以向S输出静态的高低电平信号,也可以输出变化的PWM信号,信号电平可以是3.3V或5V。当您向S输出高电平时LED以最大亮度发光,低电平就完全熄灭,可变占空比的PWM信号可以调节发光的亮度。
2 Features
- GPIO或PWM控制,3.3/5V电平,亮度通过PWM可调
- 体积小巧
- 2.54mm排针接口
- PCB尺寸(mm):8x24
- Pin Description:
Pin | Description |
S | GPIO |
V | Supply Voltage 5V |
G | Ground |

4 Download Matrix Source Code
All the matrix modules' code samples are open source. They are maintained on GitHub - git://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git
Each branch in this hub contains the matrix modules' code samples for a board that the matrix modules can work with.
- The nanopi branch contains the matrix modules' code samples for the NanoPi
- The tiny4412 branch contains the matrix modules' code samples for the Tiny4412
- The raspberrypi branch contains the matrix modules' code samples for the RaspberryPi
Please follow the steps below to get the source code:
Install the git utility on a PC running Ubuntu14.04
$ sudo apt-get install git
Clone the matrix code from GitHub
$ git clone git://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git
If this is successful a "matrix" directory will be generated, which will contain all the matrix modules' code samples.
5 Connect to NanoPi
5.1 Preparations
Please install a Debian on a NanoPi and an appropriate cross compiler on a PC. Please refer to wiki:NanoPi
Compile a NanoPi kernel. Note: please use the kernel's source code from the nanopi-v4.1.y-matrix branch.
$ git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/linux-4.x.y.git $ cd linux-4.x.y $ git checkout nanopi-v4.1.y-matrix $ make nanopi_defconfig $ touch .scmversion $ make
5.2 Hardware Connection
Please refer to the following connection diagram to connect the Matrix-LED to the NanoPi
Connection Details:
Matrix-LED | NanoPi |
S | Pin7 |
V | Pin4 |
G | Pin6 |
5.3 Compile Test Program
Please login the matrix hub and enter the nanopi branch
$ cd matrix $ git checkout nanopi
Compile the matrix code
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- clean $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- install
Note: please make sure to install the cross compiler "arm-linux-gcc-4.4.3" on your PC, which is used to compile files for the NanoPi-Debian.
Generated library files are under the "install/lib" directory. Applications are under the "install/usr/bin" directory. The test program for the "Matrix-LED" module is "matrix-led".
5.4 运行测试程序
拷贝库文件和测试程序到NanoPi的文件系统上
$ cp install/usr/bin/* nanopi_rootfs/usr/bin/ $ cp install/lib/* nanopi_rootfs/lib/ -d
然后启动NanoPi,在Debian的shell终端中执行如下命令运行模块Matrix-LED的测试程序
$ matrix-led
5.5 代码展示
int main(int argc, char ** argv) { int ledPin = GPIO_PIN1; int i = 0; int ret = -1; if ((ret = exportGPIOPin(ledPin)) == -1) { printf("exportGPIOPin(%d) failed\n", ledPin); } if ((ret = setGPIODirection(ledPin, GPIO_OUT)) == -1) { printf("setGPIODirection(%d) failed\n", ledPin); } for (i = 0; i < LED_BLINK_TIMES; i++) { if (i % 2) { ret = setGPIOValue(ledPin, GPIO_HIGH); } else { ret = setGPIOValue(ledPin, GPIO_LOW); } if (ret == -1) { printf("setGPIOValue(%d) failed\n", ledPin); } printf("LED blinking times %d\n", i); sleep(1); } unexportGPIOPin(ledPin); return 0; }
6 与Tiny4412连接使用
6.1 准备工作
参考Tiny4412光盘里的《友善之臂Ubuntu使用手册》,在Tiny4412上运行UbuntuCore系统,然后在主机PC上安装并使用相应的编译器。
注意:只能使用Tiny4412SDK-1506的底板。
6.2 硬件连接
连接说明:
Matrix-LED | Tiny4412 |
S | GPIO1 S |
V | GPIO1 5V |
G | GPIO1 GND |
6.3 编译测试程序
进入Matrix代码仓库,切换到tiny4412分支
$ cd matrix $ git checkout tiny4412
编译Matrix配件代码
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- clean $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- install
注意:请确保你的主机PC当前使用的交叉编译器为Tiny4412-UbuntuCore配套的arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-4.7.3。
编译出来的库文件位于install/lib目录下,而测试程序则位于install/usr/bin目录下,模块Matrix-LED对应的测试程序为matrix-led。
6.4 运行测试程序
拷贝库文件和测试程序到Tiny4412的UbuntuCore的文件系统上
$ cp install/usr/bin/* tiny4412_rootfs/usr/bin/ $ cp install/lib/* tiny4412_rootfs/lib/ -d
然后启动Tiny4412,在UbuntuCore的shell终端中执行如下命令运行模块Matrix-LED的测试程序
$ matrix-led
