This repository contains example code for the evaluation board of the IS3715 DMX controller IC, as demonstrated in the video:
🔗 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ut7PL3LPDo
The evaluation board implements a simple DMX lighting application. Three sliders on the board correspond to DMX channels 1, 2, and 3, which are mapped to control the Red, Green, and Blue components respectively of an RGB DMX fixture.
As the sliders move, the IS3715 continuously sends DMX data, and the attached RGB light responds in real time.
- DMX512-A Protocol Compliant
- Sends All 512 Channels
- Synchronization Output Pin
- Update Rate: 44 Hz
- Eliminates the complexity of generating a DMX frame with the correct timing requirements.
- Offloads all DMX protocol handling from the microcontroller, freeing up firmware resources and simplifying code.
- Ideal for applications that need DMX output without dedicating CPU time to precise protocol timing or low-level DMX implementation.
- Reduces engineering time and costs.
- Reduces product time-to-market.
- Makes the DMX protocol transparent to both the microcontroller and the engineer.
- Provides a low-cost solution.
- Fewer ISRs, lower microcontroller CPU load.
- Reduces microcontroller memory usage.
- Saves microcontroller dedicated pins with I²C.
- Minimizes impact on microcontroller peripherals (no need for dedicated timers, UARTs, etc.).
- Compact, easy-to-solder SO8N package.
- I²C speeds: 100 kHz, 400 kHz, and 1 MHz.
