Tripix – Controller Update

Posted by JEC on August 1st, 2009

Tripix Controller

 Finally!  Some updates.

Above is the board layout for the Tripix controller.  Several copies of the design are being fabricated right now.  Included on the board are

  • High-voltage ‘buck’ type power supply (accepts AC or DC input, up to 15-50 V)
  • DIP switch for setting the system’s start address 
  • Terminals for DMX in & through, isolated DMX receive section
  • RJ45 jacks for driving strings and injecting power
  • USB jack for in-the-field firmware updates and (possible) string control 

Hope to have video clips of 16-20 pixels running various demo patterns later this weekend.
