Hardware Overview

Teensy Footprint
The SmartLED shield makes it easy to connect to RGB LED matrix panels. As opposed to wiring to 16 pins on the
RGB LED matrix panel, you simply sandwich the shield between a Teensy and the IDC connector! The top of the
board is where you would insert the Teensy populated with straight headers. The bottom of the shield includes
female headers to make a secure connection.

Adjacent to the Teensy footprint are additional pins that are broken out for easy access for prototyping or soldering
wires directly to the shield.
