# MAX7219 Sample Drive
This repository contains the code required to drive a max7219 8x8 LED matrix using a Raspberry Pi (with `spidev`). **The code written is extremely rigid and should not be used in any form of production applications**.
## Connections
The following are the table lists the connetion
| LED | Physical Pin (Raspberry Pi) |
|-----|------------------------------|
| DIN| 19|
| CLK| 23|
| CS | 24|
## Driving the led matrix
You can either modiy the `test.py` file, or paste the `max7219` folder into your project directory.
The following are the methods available.
1. `bootstrap()` - Initialize the matrix to display fonts.
2. `CLEAR_DISPLAY()` - Clears the entire display.
3. `setBitmap(bitMap)` - Display the provided `bitMap`. (Can be used to display special characters or symbols)
4. `show(string, delay = 0)` - Display the given string with a word delay of the `delay`.
5. `close()` - Closes the `spi` connection
