Best suited for
- Driving a cabinet or module group of up to 384 × 384 pixels with a single card.
- Permanent installations that need temperature / voltage monitoring.
Key features (manufacturer)
- 16 standard HUB75E connectors; up to 32 groups of parallel RGB data
- Maximum resolution: 512×384@60Hz with PWM ICs, 384×384@60Hz with common ICs
- Brightness calibration of each pixel with NovaStar's high-precision calibration system
- Quick adjustment of dark or bright lines; 3D with a sending card that supports it; individual gamma adjustment for RGB (NovaLCT V5.2.0 or later)
- Mapping function, temperature and voltage monitoring, bit error detection, firmware and configuration parameter readback
- Loop backup and dual program backup
- Input voltage DC 3.8 V to 5.5 V, rated power consumption 2.5 W
Capacity and loading area
The card receives data over the Ethernet chain and drives the module group inside this area. The cabinet/module load cannot exceed this area or the capacity of 147,456 px.This figure is for modules with conventional driver chips; the datasheet states 196,608 px for modules with PWM driver chips.
