    Turns out I will be getting my prototype returned, so I can offer technical support to those keen on building it.

    I build this circuit with only one 5X7 led display ( Col 1,2,3,4,5 ), But not working. Is it necessary to built all 7 display ?

    Can you be a bit more specific - what exactly have you done & what's not working?

    As is, without great modification, it would be next to useless with just 35 LEDs.

    I see. Are you able to successfully upload a message from the Windows software to the EEPROM? If so, do any of the LEDs come on?

    (You need to describe exact symptoms - theoretically, because each character is actually 5x7, I guess the circuit should show a quick flicker of single characters on 35 LEDs. There would be noticeable pauses in between. In other words, yes I believe it should do something with just 35 LEDs.

    Do you realize that the 24c04 is technically different to the 24c256? You can't just whack in the 24c04 and hope for the best - it won't work without modifying the software. The 24c04 is cumbersome to work with compared to the 24c256. Byte sized addressing and bank switching complicate a relatively simple need.
