8" LED Scoreboard Kit - LED Up & Down Counter Kit
This is the Large LED Up/Down Counter Display Kit. This fun and very practical kit consists of a 2-digit, microprocessor-controlled UP/DOWN counter with RESET.
It has three separate screw-terminal inputs, RESET, UP, & DOWN, which are looking for a switch to ground. The power comes in on a 2-pin screw terminal and can be anywhere from 9vdc to 15vdc. This kit will run off of a 9v Battery.
There are 50 jumbo 10mm LEDs and each number is 4 1/2 inches high by 2 3/4 inches wide. The total width of the two numbers, including the spacing between them is 4 inches. The visibility is well over 100 feet.
Leds can be mounted on either side of the PCB. The Front end style is where the LEDS are mounted so that the other components can be seen. shown pictures above with the RED scoreboard Leds. The Pictures of the Green scoreboard is a backside style led mount.please select one when placing the order or the default will be front style.
The counter will start at zero upon initial power. For better readability, the Tens digit is always off when the Ones digit is from zero to 9. The kit comes in 6 different colors, please select the color you want. The default color is RED.
The software has built-in debounce protection to avoid double entries.
The counter will count up all the way to 99, then rollover to 0 and continue to count from there. The counter can count down from 99 to 0 and thru 0 back to 99.
The RESET will bring you to 0 from any count.
The LEDs are thru-hole, but the rest are SMT components. The pix shows thru-hole parts, but this scoreboard has a SMT Microprocessor and SMT drivers.
This device can be driven by an Arduino.
The PCB is 8 inches wide by 6 1/2 inches high. FR-4 epoxy-glass, .062", double-sided, plated-thru holes. There are also five mounting holes.
This kit is also offered as a "Built & Tested" for those that do not want to build the kit themselves.
You will get the PCB, Schematics, and all of the components to build the circuit. You will need construction tools, such as a soldering iron, solder, etc which are not provided.
