This time, we will be using the multiplexing chip MAX7219, that can be bought very cheaply together with PCB and all the required components. We will create a custom PCB in KiCad to place the LED ring light and Potentiometer and replace the 8x8 LED Matrix Display. ------------------------------------------------------ Links from the video: LED ring light: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dmv... 10K Potentiometer: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dk1...
