We needed some decorations for congress and I remembered that I have these PCBs flying around somewhere. Too bad I couldn't find all 50 PCBs, so I came up with making some with LED strings as well - with folding the strip carefully, you just have to solder the cable on.

LEDodecahedron | silly idea
since the IS31FL3733 is not recommended for new designs, why not redesign the LED PCBs with the IS31FL3741. gotta research that - would mean more LEDs (117 instead of 64).
According to my table, I would get 2 more rows around the cube with 106 LEDs.
There's only one ADDR pin here, so you can have a maximum of 4 panel adresses, but definitely managable to address half a cube with the RP2040 that has two I2C channels.

COVID-19 | SAO Simple Add-on | #37C3 - Congress
First off all, I am very sorry for giving you a bag with freely flying resistors in it and that you have to read the value in the darkness of Congress! In parts this is @Alex 's fault, he once gave me bags of 0805 resistors and I recycled them in this projects, as I only want to use 0603 parts most of the time.
Anywho, there might be a 330k resistor in there instead of a 390k resistor, so according to this fine website, it should blink 3 times per second, instead of 2 times.
https://www.digikey.de/en/resources/conversion-calculators/conversion-calculator-555-timer
Here's the parts list:
- R1, R4 100 Ohm
- R3 150 Ohm
- R2 390k Ohm
- C1 1uF
- D1, D2 RED LED (solder upside down)
- U1 LMC555 timer 3V [Datasheet]
The 555 timer has a chamfer to indicate the side of the first pin.
Btw checkout Berlin's very fine sewage report:

New PCB For Calculator Watch | rev1
The first version was doomed from the beginning, since I had no diodes on the keys. I also swapped the USB micro socket with a JST-SH socket and made a small adapter board instead. Let's see how far I get this time.
