Title: Supported LED drivers
Post by: Kasey911 on January 30, 2013,

Greetings!

While I'm waiting for the SSC coops to start, I've been looking into the various options available that will work with the SSC.  I've been digging through old posts as well as the Wiki and I want to confirm that the following LED drivers are the only ones known to work with the SSC:

TM1804
TM1809
WS2811 * NOT SUPPORTED

I realize that the TM1804 and TM1809 are the only "officially" supported drivers based on the Wiki links, but I wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing any other options as I begin purchasing my pixels.

If anybody has any first-hand experience with other options, I'd love to hear about it.

As always, thanks to everyone for passing on your knowledge and experience to those of us just getting started.  ;D

Thanks Chris, I wasn't sure about that one but I thought I saw that someone was using them.  Must have been with a non-SSC.  I'll remove it from the list :)
