ESP32 ESP-IDF component for TM1637 led drive (via RMT driver)

Tested on

  1. ESP32 ESP-IDF v6.0.1

SAST Tools

PVS-Studio - static analyzer for C, C++, C#, and Java code.

Features

  1. Support up to 4 led drives on one device (depends on the used ESP32 chip).

Note

  1. Just simple driver without any additives.

Attention

  1. Original ESP32, ESP32-S2 and ESP32-C2 not supported.
  2. For correct operation, please enable the following settings in the menuconfig:
CONFIG_RMT_ENCODER_FUNC_IN_IRAM=y
CONFIG_RMT_TX_ISR_HANDLER_IN_IRAM=y
CONFIG_RMT_TX_ISR_CACHE_SAFE=y

Using

In an existing project, run the following command to install the components:

cd ../your_project/components
git clone https://github.com/aZholtikov/zh_tm1637

In the application, add the component:

#include "zh_tm1637.h"

Examples

One 4 segment led drive on device:

// Numerical symbols without dot (with dot).
// 0x3F (0xBF) - 0 (0.).
// 0x06 (0x86) - 1 (1.).
// 0x5B (0xDB) - 2 (2.).
// 0x4F (0xCF) - 3 (3.).
// 0x66 (0xE6) - 4 (4.).
// 0x6D (0xED) - 5 (5.).
// 0x7D (0xFD) - 6 (6.).
// 0x07 (0x87) - 7 (7.).
// 0x7F (0xFF) - 8 (8.).
// 0x6F (0xEF) - 9 (9.).
// 0x40        - Minus.
// 0x00        - Empty.
// 0x80        - Dot.
