Club Matrix

heavily inspired by the c-base matelight by jaseg, "just" shrunken down

Raspberry PI 3B+ powered LED matrix with the same resolution as the c-base matelight with 16x40 LEDs. Fun fact, when you buy a ten pack of 8x8 matrices, you get the same amount of LEDs = 640 of them.

The PSU has three Terminal outputs for 5V. One is used for connecting directly to the Raspberry PI. The other two are each connected to a 6 position screw terminal adapter (https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B076CGXKBY/) with a 14 gauge silicone cable (probably too big for use case). A pair of ground and voltage terminals can supply an 8x8 matrix directly. The data wires are then connected like shown in a previous log (https://hackaday.io/project/169093-club-matrix/log/172245-from-10-x-8x8-leds-to-40-x-16-leds).
