@rapid hornet I switched to this chat ๐ I just wanted to check, that 0x61...is that a value from the sensor (periph)...and on the logic analyzer it shows it correctly on the miso pin....but it's just the ESP32 not reading it correctly?
So it's almost certain that the sensor, and the wiring is correct?
I thought so...just wanted to double check. If it's the sensor sending 0x61 then it must be receiving the commands from the host.

+1 for the buying from Adafruit vs from a cheap-from-china-at-discount.
So many beginners grab a "cheap" project kit that half works, and dissuades them from entering the hobby from frustration.
plucky glen
I need to control 135 LEDs. They are grouped anywhere from one LED to 27 LEDs. Putting 135 resistors into the circuit seems daunting, yet everything I read about multiple LEDs say one resistor for one LED. Is there any reasonable solution to this?
slow spire
@plucky glen Are NeoPixel or DotStar LEDs or strips an option?
They come with built-in resistors and smarts.
plucky glen
No. Too expensive, and too hard to wire into the patterns required
And only one color is needed
wicked copper
@open girder yeah i'll use a cheap board that only connects to bluetooth, but use a HUZZAH32 for the main board for the featherwings
robust horizon
@plucky glen do you need to turn them on/off individually?
split gazelle
i love that clip
robust horizon
the chip on this thing runs a bunch of LEDs individually and does not have individual resistors so it can be done

@plucky glen charlieplexing maybe? with pwm
waxen thistle
Personal story: I bought a cheap Arduino kit nearly 10 years ago from elsewhere, first time getting into the hobby. I was so frustrated that the pins weren't long enough for a motor plug, which sent me to adafruit for the first time since they had the extra long breakaway strips ๐
strange mantle
yah, like what jeffe just linked
plucky glen
No, they are in concentric circles, and we need to light one circle at a time. Each row will have a different PWM and therefore a different brightness. N-channel MOSFETs to control the LEDs.
wicked copper
@open girder yeah i'll use a cheap board that only connects to bluetooth, but use a HUZZAH32 for the main board for the featherwings

https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/030/994/original/31FL3731.pdf?1457554773 up to 144 LEDs from the 1 chip, wow
slow spire
@plucky glen Check out this Adafruit guide for examples of wiring LEDs in parallel or serial with fewer resistors: https://learn.adafruit.com/lets-put-leds-in-things/from-scratch
plucky glen
yes, but wiring LEDs for row/column multiplexing means essentially 16x16, and to get a 50Hz refresh rate means each LED is on for 78us. This will make them very dim. But if I boost the current (taking advantage of the peak forward current rating) we are in a situation where I would have to exceed the 100ma max forward current to get anything resembling brightness. I did this in a more limited context 25 years ago, and I was pushing the limit on what the LEDs could do (controlling 9 7-segment displays from one decoder). I only had nine LEDs (in essence) and now I have 135. So the idea was to simply activate each circle, starting with the single LED in the center and moving outward to the 27 LEDs in the outer circle. The person who is doing this is not very good at soldering, so I'm giving him a wirewrap tool and wire.
slow spire
You need them to be addressable, like an RGB matrix or strip?
plucky glen
No. Think of the problem as eight LEDs being activated in a pattern of brightness, think of it as a wave moving out from the center. I can do this with 4PWM pins, because I can make two rows run on one pin. They will be separated by three other rows. But the basic problem is still dealing with 135 resistors

[Latest epidemiological models do not look good right now.]
waxen thistle
Masks are good. Physical distancing is good. Staying home if you can afford to, if you're able to....that's best.
plucky glen
Tonight's plan is to make an array of 8 LEDs and get the program working. Then, each MOSFET will control a different (but fixed) number of LEDs. The outer ring will have a resistor that can handle 5Vx27x25mA, dp I understand watts. That's not the problem. The problem is that I would like to use 8 resistors to limit the whole row.
