RITHESH LED Display: Version 2 (rev 0.2, proposal)
Proposal only. Do not order. Version 1 (the project root) is the approved prototype and is not changed here. The Version 2 LED (XL-2020RGBC-2812B) is provisional until its own WLED timing test passes.
Version 2 is a smaller board:
- 250 × 40 mm instead of 300 × 70 mm
- 107 small 2 × 2 mm LEDs at 5 mm spacing
- the electronics at the right end of the word
The ESP32, WLED, protection chips, buttons, test pads and mounting holes stay the same.
