		uint8_t	chip = `0`
	)

inlineinherited

Send the value to the given digit or row.

	)

inlineinherited

Send values to the given digit or row, sending a different value for each chip.

The array is often a matrix containing the values for all rows of all chips in this chain. In that case, the leading dimension is 8, because each chip has 8 rows.

[0] chip 0, row 0  ┐
[1] chip 0, row 1  │
[ ] ...            │ 8 elements between two chips
[7] chip 0, row 7  │
[8] chip 1, row 0  ┘
[9] chip 1, row 1
[ ] ...

If you just want to specify a single row for all chips, the leading dimension of the array is 1.

[0] chip 0, row 0  ┐
[1] chip 1, row 0  ┘ 1 element between two chips
[2] chip 2, row 0
[ ] ...

Parameters

digit	The digit or row to set [0, 7].
values	The array of values to send.
leading_dim	The leading dimension of the array of values.

Definition at line 115 of file MAX7219_Base.hpp.

◆ sendAll()

void sendAll ( const uint8_t * values )

inlineinherited

Send different values to all digits/rows of all chips.

The array layout should be as follows:

[0] chip 0, row 0  ┐
[1] chip 0, row 1  │
[ ] ...            │ 8 elements between two chips
[7] chip 0, row 7  │
[8] chip 1, row 0  ┘
[9] chip 1, row 1
[ ] ...

The array has 8 * chainlength elements in total.

Parameters

values The array of values to send.
