r/adafruit

I wish more companies worked like Adafruit

I needed to work on an FPGA project at home, but forgot that I cannibalized a 4-digit LED display from it. Of course the part that I have at home isn't the same type -- but I bought it from Adafruit, who knows how many years ago. So that means I can go on the site, find the datasheet, and light it up without playing which-pin-is-which-element.

Up and running in maybe five minutes. One of the many reasons why I love Adafruit.
