TM1638 module

Hi
I have this shield for arduino uno.
library I've been.
has anyone good sketches here for?

thanks

First.. Terminology. Knowing this will save you time and frustration. :slight_smile:

Not a shield. Shields plug into an Arduino or pin compatible board. Which could explain why you are having a problem finding information.

This is a module. Not Arduino specific, And it only has 4 wires to talk to the controller chip, which does much of the tricky stuff. If anything, this makes it more useful, as it will usually be cheaper than a shield, and you can choose what pins you use, and incorporate it in a DIY circuit instead of building a bought Arduino into a permanent project.

This is one of many boards produced usually by Chinese hobby electronics suppliers, and based on a Chinese driver chip. Low price, lots of functionality, little documentation.

Good news.. Only 2 Arduino pins are taken up. The other two are power. So should add lots of scope to add it to your projects.
Bad news, it's a wee bit more involved than sending "hello" to the 7 segment display.

Do a search on this forum for "TM1638". Or Google it, and you will come across a whole bunch of Arduino specific tutorials, and a range of similar modules using the same chips.
There is a library for driving the display chip, so it should be pretty easy.

Hi
I have among between a zip file of the Chinese had.
but is in the C language, and so I do not know how to do it to the arduino, thus to get working.
and of course everything in Chinese.
the zip is attached
and I can't find this library they use
#include <REGX51.H>

I see on google that REGX51. h of the c language is
I ask someone who can convert the whole thing in that zip,
or is that asking too much??

so that it works normally with arduino uno
