Create a Simple Running Text

Running Text or Running Display is one of the media to provide information to readers about the products or services offered. Running Text is commonly paired in stores or service places that are paired in places that are easy to see so that it can be read easily by potential consumers. Running text creation can be done in a simple way as well as a complex way depending on the type of variation that will be displayed on the running text. 

On this occasion we will create a simple running text using 1 core component which is an ATmega328 microcontroller. This microcontroller will be attached to a modified component so that it can create a simple running text with a customizable display. 


This microcontroller will be equipped with coding that is used to process the text that will be displayed in the running text. We can replace the display text that will be displayed in the code according to the text you want to display. Programming code will then be uploaded into the microcontroller for processing. 

Here is a schematic of simple running text that you can use as a reference and modify according to your needs. In this schematic it consists of only a few components. The most important part of this series is the male header section that is in this series. as many as 16 male headers lined up intended to be able to connect the microcontroller with the p10 display panel to be used.

This project in the program uses arduino which of course requires several libraries that support the running of this coding. All you have to do is replace the sentence "replace this sentence" by multiplying the quotation marks that flank the sentence that will be displayed in the led running text with the sentence you want to display. For coding will be discussed in the next post yes.
