TP3244 Pinouts

[Tabor]

Hello Chicken

As per the Pinouts you need to connect all three lines out including the gnd

So basically you will connect clock and data directly to the pixels, then tie your ground from the power supply together with the ground on the output, then to the pixels.

5v connects directly from power supply to pixels.

I have updated the first post with a quick diagram of the power supply connections.

Thanks.  Going to work on playing with things tonight.

I thought I would share how I am making my cables up for MPH pixels.

This is how I make up my cables using CAT5 Cable.

ensure that you Solder all the leads and heat shrink each connection.

Cut off each end of a length of CAT5 and strip. keeping the twisted pairs together.

MPH Pixel End Pigtail supplied by MPH
(this could be any other pixel just get the colours of the plugs right)

Orange / OrangeWhite twist together  --------------> Connect to RED +5V


Brown / BrownWhite / GreenWhite / BlueWhite twist together ------------------> Connect to Yellow GND

Green --------------------> connect to Green
Blue -------------------------> Connect to Blue


On the TP-3244 end (white cable)

Orange / OrangeWhite twist together  --------------> Connect to Molex socket from computer power supply RED Wire +5V

(you can get one from old fan lead)


Brown / BrownWhite twist together ------------------> Connect to Molex socket from computer power supply Black Wire(s) GND

Green --------------------> connect to BLUE of White 3pin Pigtail lead (pin1 of TP-3244)

Blue -------------------------> Connect to Brown of White 3pin Pigtail lead (pin2 of TP-3244)

GreenWhite / BlueWhite twist together --------------------------> Connect to Yellow of white 3pin pigtail lead Pin3 of TP-3244)

Optionally I power the TP-3244 from the Computer power supply as well.
Connect the red wire of the two pin white lead (+12V of tp-3244) to Yellow wire of Molex socket of power supply.
Connect the black wire of the two pin white lead (-GND of tp-3244)  wire goes to black wire of Molex socket of power supply.

Hope this helps someone

Does this look correct?

I don't know the pinouts, but if someone else does please post here.  If someone takes a nice picture of the board too, I'll document it in the wiki.
