Tutorial: How to use 4-Digit LED Display Module HT16K33

This HT16K33 module is perfect for displaying numeric data on four red digits. It is ideal for monitoring projects, counters, and time displays.

What you need

• Arduino Uno or compatible
• USB cable
• 4-Digit LED Display Module HT16K33
• 5V power supply
• Arduino IDE software

Steps

1. Connect the module’s VCC and GND pins to the 5V and GND of the Arduino
2. Connect the SDA and SCL pins of the module to pins A4 and A5 of the Arduino
3. Install the Adafruit HT16K33 library in the Arduino IDE software
4. Include the library in the Arduino code
5. Create an HT16K33Display object
6. Set the I2C address of the module
7. Initialize the display
8. Display numbers or text on the display

Example code

Adafruit_HT16K33 ht16k33; // Creare un oggetto HT16K33Display
ht16k33.begin(0x70); // Impostare l'indirizzo I2C
ht16k33.writeDisplay(1234); // Mostra il numero 1234

Mini project

Create a timer that shows elapsed time in hours, minutes, and seconds.
