So my experimentation from last time got me only so far, and I've got a new set of questions...
I have 16 pieces of 3-LED RGB strip to wire up for a... certain project. The strips are simply three RGB LEDs, common anode, without a controller chip. That means without an individual chip, they can't display on a per-LED basis, but each strip if properly controlled can display a color, as I understand.
So, in that line of questioning, I picked up this http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/rgb...?cPath=132_134 for its three PWM driver chips. Can I simply wire the LED strips to it and run it that way? Each 3-LED strip would correspond to one of the LED outputs pretty neatly, as it's wired for common anode as well. The only issue I see is power. Anyone got any criticisms or ideas for it? I'll be running it off a Seeeduino Stalker V2 (as it's running Dallas one-wire temp sensors, an ambient sensor, and a serial LCD with inputs as well) with an XBee (I hope) for wireless control after it's all programmed. Everything but the XBee and my AVR programmer are here, so I can set down to work as soon as I get confirmation this will or will not work.
Will it run what I want to run? And do I need more input than USB power?
