The HT16K33 is a memory-mapped, multi-function LED controller driver. The maximum display segment count on the device is 128 patterns (16 segments and eight commons), with a 13×3 Maximum matrix key scan circuit. The software-configurable features of the HT16K33 make it suitable for a wide range of LED applications, including LED modules and display subsystems. The HT16K33 is compatible with most microcontrollers and communicates via a two-line bidirectional I²C bus.
The base I²C address for an HT16K33 is 0x70, but it can be changed to one of seven other addresses by setting the four address pins (A0-A3) via hardware. Each HT16K33 chip can have a unique address from 0x70 to 0x77. If multiple HT16K33 devices are used on the same bus, each must have a distinct address, and if you use more than one, their addresses must be sequential, such as 0x70, 0x71, 0x72.
