Module Parameters:

Common Cathode Lattice:
A single module can drive an 8×8 common cathode lattice.
Operating Voltage:
Module operates at 5V.
Module Size:
Dimensions: 5cm (length) x 3.2cm (width) x 1.5cm (height).
Mounting Holes:
Four screw holes with a 3mm aperture for secure installation.
Cascading Support:
Input and output interfaces allow multiple modules to be cascaded.

Wiring Instructions:

Connect the modules input port (left side) and output port (right side).
For controlling a single module:
Connect the input port directly to the CPU.
For cascading multiple modules:
Input termination module connects to the CPU.
Output termination module connects to the input of the next module.
Repeat this pattern for additional modules.

Example for an MCU (e.g. Arduino UNO):

VCC: Connect to 5V
GND: Connect to GND
DIN: Connect to P22
CS: Connect to P21
CLK: Connect to P20
