Roughly tens of thousands of large-size LED video-display boards have been installed worldwide. The adoption of LED video display boards can become even more widespread if the overall system price can be significantly reduced and the operational procedure of such display boards can be simplified. The following application note represents a reference design for a basic, low-cost, modular LED video-display board. The design's new architecture uses a combination of one inexpensive FPGA chip for the digital video bit stream demultiplexing and the features of MAX6974 LED drivers to build a QVGA (320 x 240) resolution LED video display. This display board can be controlled by a PC and used as a secondary monitor to display any text, graphic, or multimedia information.
If in production, the Super Pong Table might just get bigger and bigger.
