Hello, I am new here...

I want to scroll a message in LED matrix using a microcontroller.

First, I started with a simulation. I input my characters in hyperterminal in windows. I connected a PIC18F452 microcontroller and MAX6952 as the display driver.

I would like to ask for assistance on how I can display a scrolling text in the cascaded LED matrices. I am using C Language...

Any ideas please?

Thanks a lot!

That's just the datasheet bro, I've already downloaded it somewhere.

A very simple coding would really help. Thanks

You should read the datasheet, it says how to send data to your chip. Are you familiar with C or is that what you want to use?
