Turns out I will be getting my prototype returned, so I can offer technical support to those keen on building it.
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 ?
My controller circuit is same, But i connect only one 5x7 dot matrix display to IC3 ( cd4017)
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.

How i confirm that i successfully upload a message from the Windows software to the EEPROM?
I also using 24c04 instead of 24c256,
will you upload eny video of working display ?
Are display something look like This video ?
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.
