After 40 Years, It Was Time for an Upgrade!

The venerable and original peripheral for the TEC-1 has finally had an update to make it the must-have peripheral for the new TEC-1G. Making use of the Expander found at the top right of the 1G, the new 8x8 LED Matrix makes use of all four ports presented at the Expander to allow for up to THREE 8x8 units chained together (one port for the horizontal rows, the other three controlling the vertical columns) to give a huge "widescreen" effect of 24 pixels wide by 8 pixels tall.

And there is more; Those three vertical ports can also be used to display Red, Greed and Blue pixels! That's right, a FULL RGB 8x8 module has been used in this iteration of the best add-on for the TEC-1G! Other options include stacking multiple modules and stacking them vertically for games like Tetris or race car type games. Each module can be configured with jumpers to connect any of the 3 vertical ports to any selected R, G or B colour.
